ninfs 2.0a10

latest releases: v2.0, v2.0a11
15 months ago
  • Windows/GUI: Fix tkinter failing to find tcl/tk when installed in paths that contain non-Latin characters
  • nandhac: Fix problems loading multipart images on Linux when the mount process is not in the foreground
  • macOS: Try to load fuse-t if macFUSE can't be found (#103)
    • fuse-t is an alternative to macFUSE that doesn't depend on a kernel extension, making it easier to install on modern macOS. It should work just as well but please file issues.
  • macOS: Only display filename in volume name and not the containing directory for mounts that do this

This release is far from finished! It only has minimal testing. Some features are missing completely, some may not work correctly or at all.

This is a release that is the result of many internal changes under the hood over a year, and there are still more that are coming, before and after 2.0's full release. Testing this release is highly appreciated. Please file issues on GitHub. Support is provided on my server on Discord (info, invite link) or the thread on GBATemp. Thanks!

Installation

Windows

The installer includes ninfs and WinFsp. This is the easiest way to use the application.

The standalone release can be downloaded as ninfs-2.0a10-win32.zip below the notes. Extract and run ninfsw.exe (or ninfs.exe to have a console attached).

ninfs can also be used as a Python module below.

macOS

macOS users need macFUSE or fuse-t.

The standalone release can be downloaded as ninfs-2.0a10-macos.dmg below the notes. Open the disk image, optionally copy to the Applications folder, and run ninfs.

ninfs can also be used as a Python module below.

Linux

Install as a pip module like below. To use the gui, make sure tkinter is installed. This is python3-tk on Debian/Ubuntu and python3-tkinter on Fedora.

Arch Linux: (AUR git package still needs updates, please wait...)

BSD/etc.

No idea. It might work! I would like to make sure ninfs works on these systems too, so feel free to file issues or make PRs for compatibility with BSD or other systems that support libfuse.

fusepy should support FreeBSD and OpenBSD. For anything else you should consider adding support to refuse.

Python module installation

Python 3.6.1 or later is required. Version on PyPI

Windows

  • py -3 -mpip install ninfs==2.0a10

macOS

  • python3 -mpip install ninfs==2.0a10

Linux

  • python3 -mpip install --user ninfs==2.0a10
    • --user is not required if you are using a virtualenv.

A little something extra...
