Class MountableFileSystem

The MountableFileSystem allows you to mount multiple backend types or multiple instantiations of the same backend into a single file system tree. The file systems do not need to know about each other; all interactions are automatically facilitated through this interface.

For example, if a file system is mounted at /mnt/blah, and a request came in for /mnt/blah/foo.txt, the file system would see a request for /foo.txt.

You can mount file systems like so:

var mfs = new BrowserFS.FileSystem.MountableFileSystem();
mfs.mount('/data', new BrowserFS.FileSystem.XmlHttpRequest());
mfs.mount('/home', new BrowserFS.FileSystem.LocalStorage());

Since MountableFileSystem simply proxies requests to mounted file systems, it supports all of the operations that the mounted file systems support.

With no mounted file systems, MountableFileSystem acts as a simple InMemory filesystem.
