Cryptographic filesystem for the cloud

See http://www.cryfs.org

This repository contains the filesystem implementation. There are submodules in the following repositores:

  • Blockstore: Store (encrypted) fixed-size blocks of data in different backends
  • Blobstore: Store resizeable blobs of data using blocks from a blockstore
  • ParallelAccessStore: Concurrency primitive for Blockstore/Blobstore
  • Fs++: Implement a file system against a platform independent interface

Building from source

Requirements

  • biicode

    $ wget http://apt.biicode.com/install.sh
    $ ./install.sh
    $ bii setup:cpp
    
  • GCC version >= 4.9 or Clang (TODO which minimal version?)

  • libFUSE (including development headers) (TODO which minimal version?)

    # Ubuntu
    $ sudo apt-get install libfuse-dev
    
    # Fedora
    TODO
    
    # Macintosh
    TODO
    

Build

  1. Clone repository

    $ git clone git@github.com:cryfs/cryfs.git cryfs
    $ cd cryfs
    
  2. Build

    $ bii init -L
    $ bii configure -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
    $ bii build
    

You can pass normal make parameters after a double dash. This can for example be used to add "-j5" to compile with 5 build threads in parallel:

    $ bii build -- -j5
