dokan-python wrapper

[arekbulski]

I see there is a wrapper for Ruby but not a wrapper for Python. Perhaps someone interested would be willing to work on that. I do not have the necessary knowledge to create one. There is a possibility that project Cameleonica #42 will end up being implemented in Python, which then means FUSE/Python, and next step will be... Dokan.

👍 for the python wrapper or even if someone could share his experience with a fuse-python wrapper and dokany !

(Ruby wrapper is kind of not maintained, so if someone want to take care of it :p)

Hi @arekbulski,
I just seen that there is an implementation of dokan.
http://docs.pyfilesystem.org/en/latest/expose/dokan.html
It is probably old and abandonned, but it is better than nothing for a start (probably).

Thanks @Liryna
I would not have known about PyFilesystem if you did not mention it, thanks. I only started reading about it but it seems to be very useful to me. 👍 In fact, I think this solves the Issue.

Unfortunatley PyFilesystems won't work with 0.8.0 (PyFilesystem/pyfilesystem#236), and 0.7.4 also yields a -5 (DOKAN_MOUNT_ERROR) for a simple example such as

from fs.osfs import OSFS
from fs.expose import dokan
fs = OSFS('.')
mp = dokan.mount(fs, 'Q')

Lyrina fixed the pyfilesystem-dokan issues.
