# MKLLFS (Make Linked List File System)
|
|
|
|
## Introduction
|
|
The llfs filesystem can be generated using the mkllfss utility. It is a simple filesystem that uses a linked list to store files.
|
|
The filesystem is stored in a single c file (llfs_data.c), which can be compiled and read by the llfs library.
|
|
The llfs filesystem is a flat filesystem, meaning that it does not support directories.
|
|
|
|
The mkllfs utilit can be used to generate the `llfs_data.c` file. The `llfs_data.c` file from a directory with files.
|
|
|
|
A pre-compiled version can be download: [mkllfs.exe](https://github.com/Sani7/2023-Webservices_And_Applications/releases/tag/v0.2.1)
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
The mkllfs utility can be used as follows:
|
|
```bash
|
|
mkllfs [options] <directory> <output_file>
|
|
```
|
|
For example:
|
|
```bash
|
|
mkllfs data llfs_data.c
|
|
```
|
|
Available options:
|
|
```
|
|
-h, --help show the help message and exit
|
|
-v, --version print the version of mkllfs and the llfs library that it generates for
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Using the batch file
|
|
The `mkllfs.bat` file can be used to generate the `llfs_data.c` file from the data in the `llfs-data` directory.
|
|
Before using this script, place mkllfs.exe in the same directory as the batch file.
|
|
|
|
## Building
|
|
The mkllfs utility can be built using the following command:
|
|
```bash
|
|
gcc -o mkllfs mkllfs.c
|
|
```
|
|
For windows, you can use the following command:
|
|
```bash
|
|
gcc -o mkllfs.exe mkllfs.c
|
|
```
