Documentation

Overview

Package libstorage provides a vendor agnostic storage orchestration model, API, and reference client and server implementations. libStorage enables storage consumption by leveraging methods commonly available, locally and/or externally, to an operating system (OS).

The Past

The libStorage project and its architecture represents a culmination of experience gained from the project authors' building of several (http://bit.ly/1HIAet6) different storage (http://bit.ly/1Ya9Uft) orchestration tools (https://github.com/rexray/rexray). While created using different languages and targeting disparate storage platforms, all the tools were architecturally aligned and embedded functionality directly inside the tools and affected storage platforms.

This shared design goal enabled tools that natively consumed storage, sans external dependencies.

The Present

Today libStorage focuses on adding value to container runtimes and storage orchestration tools such as Docker and Mesos, however the libStorage framework is available abstractly for more general usage across:

  • Operating systems
  • Storage platforms
  • Hardware platforms
  • Virtualization platforms

The client side implementation, focused on operating system activities, has a minimal set of dependencies in order to avoid a large, runtime footprint.

Functions

func New

func New(
	goCtx context.Context,
	config gofig.Config) (types.Client, types.Server, <-chan error, error)

New starts an embedded libStorage server and returns both the server instnace as well as a client connected to said instnace.

While a new server may be launched, it's still up to the caller to provide a config instance with the correct properties to specify service information for a libStorage server.
