RMount is a lot more robust than existing libraries and methods to create a remote connection to a cloud server. For example you would want to use Python to connect to a cloud storage such as S3 or a remote server via SSH and treat it like a local file-system.

Note

It has been a pain to write this library given how many things can go wrong when treating a cloud storage as a local file-system. For example, connection drops, or writing of large files can make the system unresponsive and lead to loss of data. The library is supposed to take care of such cases but it is always subject to unforeseen failures.

Feel free to try it out

or pip install rmount

    Don’t take it bad, but strong statements require strong evidence. Your code is basically a wrapper around the libraries that do the hard work, with a bunch of subprocess calls.

    No information is provided on realistic user cases and scenarios, other than a bunch of “trust me”, so to speak.

    You should do a better job than this if you want to convince users of those well-established tools to consider yours and not to think you’re another coder wannabe.
