Overview

Package storage provides abstractions for interacting with storage locations, both management and access. There are two primary type of storage handled by this package at this time: a. VMDKs on a vSphere datastore b. NFS shares

We have more than two sub-packages however as we use distinct packages to provide different lifecycle and usage semantics for types of data using those mechanisms. Examples include: * application logic (images) * application transient data (image read/write layer) * application persistent data (volumes)

As such there are a set of concepts, with all but `store` captured as interfaces: * store * resolver * exporter * importer * data source * data sink

The odd one out for these concepts is the `store`. This is because we did not want to be prescriptive about what a store supports, but it may well distill into an interface at a later date. Currently the various store implementations consist of a composition of `resolver`, `importer`, and `exporter` interfaces.

The `data source` and `data sink` interfaces are present to allow abstracted read and write access respectively to a specific storage mechanism. The data source and data sink instances should be considered single use and not reused for multiple access. This semantic was chosen as it's the least prescriptive on storage availability and connectivity - the precise means used to read or write from storage may change, for example, based on whether the storage is in use (has an owner). The `resolver` interface is present to translate a potentially store specific ID into an unambiguous URI, and to allow discovery of which virtual machines, if any, currently claim that ID. This returns virtual machines instead of a further abstracted interface because it's not clear at time of writing what that abstraction should or would be. The `importer` and `exporter` interfaces are the factories used to acquire `data source` and `data sink` instances. They also provide convenience methods for directly creating and consuming the source/sink in one operation.

It is not required that all storage elements implement both Importer and Exporter mechanisms - having write only or read only storage is viable.

The data source and sink interfaces also specify a basic accessor method for the underlying mechanism. This was added to allow for some future-proofing, with the primary extension expected to be a generic FileWalker interface so that directory walk and listings can be done without needing to care about the access mechanism (e.g. common between a local filesystem mount, an XDR NFS client, or a VM toolbox client).

The general structure of a specific storage implementation is as follows and is imposed so that it is easier to locate a specific functional path for a given usage/storage type combination. As of this writing there are two additional folders in this structure, nfs and vsphere. These contain implementation specific logic used across store types and must be at this level to avoid cyclic package dependencies: ``` storage/ - this package ├── [type]/ - the high level type of use, implies semantics (i.e., container, image, volume) │ ├── [type].go - the common store implementation aspects across implementations │ ├── errors.go - [type] specific error types │ ├── cache - a `store` compliant cache implementation, if needed, with appropriate semantics for the type of use │ │ └── cache.go │ └── [implementation]/ - a specific implementation type (e.g., vsphere) │ ├── bind.go - modifies a portlayer handle to configure active use of a specific `joined` storage │ ├── export.go - implements the `read` side of the interfaces (Exporter and DataSource) │ ├── import.go - a specific implementation type │ ├── join.go - modifies a portlayer handle to configure basic access to a specific instance of the storage type │ └── store.go - constructor and implementation for specific store type and implementation ├── storage.go - interface definitions, portlayer lifecycle management functions, and the registration/lookup | mechanisms for store instances. └── [purpose].go - common functions used by the various type/implementation combinations ```

This structure is not completely consistent at the time of writing. Most notable is that the bind.go functions have all been rolled into the Join calls (the portlayer uses the following common verbs across components, again with some inconsistencies at this time: Join, Bind, Inspect, Unbind, Remove, Wait). In the case of the `container` store type there is only one implementation at this time (vsphere VMDKs) and the `implementation` subdirectory has been omitted.

This file implements lookup of store implementations via the `RegisterImporter` and `RegisterExporter` functions. This is provided to allow a common pattern for implementing, finding, and accessing store implementations without the caller requiring specific knowledge about the type of a specific store. All that's required is knowledge of the set of `store` interfaces and the identifier with which a given store was implemented.

	// Import performs an import of the tar stream to the source held by this DataSink.  This is single use; once
	// the export has completed it should not be assumed that the sink remains functional.
	//
	// spec: specifies which files will be included/excluded in the import and allows for path rebasing/stripping
	// tarStream: the tar stream to from which to import data
