LakeFS

A tag based filesystem providing enhanced querying and piping capabilities, while remaining compatible with traditional file managers.

Querying

The query language is made of a few simple infix operators, which can operate on tags or subqueries. Queries are enclosed by parentheses, and are composed of tags, subqueries, and operators.

The operators are:

  • & - Logical AND, a file needs both right hand side and left.
  • | - Logical OR, a file needs either right hand side or left.
  • ! - Logical NOT, a file cannot have the tag or query.

A few examples of queries are:

  • (tag1 & tag2) - This will return all files that have both tag1 and tag2.
  • (tag1 | tag2) - This will return all files that have either tag1 or tag2.
  • (tag1 & (tag2 | tag3)) - This will return all files that have tag1 and either tag2 or tag3.

Installing

Packaging available and tested for RHEL and FreeBSD systems. Nix Flake untested.
