xattr
|
|
=====
|
|
Extended attribute support for Go (linux + darwin + freebsd).
|
|
|
|
"Extended attributes are name:value pairs associated permanently with files and directories, similar to the environment strings associated with a process. An attribute may be defined or undefined. If it is defined, its value may be empty or non-empty." [See more...](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_file_attributes)

### Example

|
```
|
|
const path = "/tmp/myfile"
|
|
const prefix = "user."
|
|
|
|
if err := xattr.Set(path, prefix+"test", []byte("test-attr-value")); err != nil {
|
|
log.Fatal(err)
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
var list []string
|
|
if list, err = xattr.List(path); err != nil {
|
|
log.Fatal(err)
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
var data []byte
|
|
if data, err = xattr.Get(path, prefix+"test"); err != nil {
|
|
log.Fatal(err)
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
if err = xattr.Remove(path, prefix+"test"); err != nil {
|
|
log.Fatal(err)
|
|
}
