gitfs | A complete solution for static files in Go code | File Utils library

gitfs is a Go library typically used in Utilities, File Utils applications. gitfs has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities, it has a Permissive License and it has low support. You can download it from GitHub.

Package gitfs is a complete solution for static files in Go code. When Go code uses non-Go files, they are not packaged into the binary. The common approach to the problem, as implemented by go-bindata is to convert all the required static files into Go code, which eventually compiled into the binary. This library takes a different approach, in which the static files are not required to be "binary-packed", and even no required to be in the same repository as the Go code. This package enables loading static content from a remote git repository, or packing it to the binary if desired or loaded from local path for development process. The transition from remote repository to binary packed content, to local content is completely smooth. The API is simple and minimalistic. The New method returns a (sub)tree of a Git repository, represented by the standard http.FileSystem interface. This object enables anything that is possible to do with a regular filesystem, such as opening a file or listing a directory. Additionally, the ./fsutil package provides enhancements over the http.FileSystem object (They can work with any object that implements the interface) such as loading Go templates in the standard way, walking over the filesystem, and applying glob patterns on a filesystem.
