Directory Tree Downloader

The standard configuration now provides a downloader for resources of type directoryTreeand the legacy type filesystem.

It acts on the mimetypes for an artifact set (application/vnd.oci.image.manifest.v1+tar+gzip) and a tar/tgz archive (application/x-tar, application/x-tar+gzip, application/x-tgz). The default configuration extracts the content to a filesystem folder. If the blob format is an artifact set, for example provided by the access method ociArtifact, the default configuration accepts the image config mimetype (application/vnd.oci.image.config.v1+json). In this case the final filesystem content provided by the image is downloaded by evaluating the layered image file system.

The default behaviour can just be used with

import "ocm.software/ocm-core/api/ocm/extensions/download"
download.For(octx).Download(printer,resourceAccess,targetdir,vfs)

If the resource access describes an appropriate artifact, the new handler is automatically selected.

As usual, the target is always a virtual filesystem.

Like all download handlers. the dirtree download handler can also explicitly be used with

import "ocm.software/ocm-core/api/ocm/extensions/download/handlers/dirtree"
dirtree.New().Download(...)

In this mode, the behaviour can be influenced by specifying any list of accepted OCI artifact config mime types.

With New(mimetypes ...string).SetArchiveMode(true) it is possible to enable the archive target mode. The content is downloaded to an archive instead of extracted filesystem content.

The handler checks the mimetypes, only, but the default registration is done exclusively for the directory content resource types. A context can be extended for other resource types with

download.For(octx),Register(dirtree.New...(...), download.ForCombi(type, [mimetype]))

The handler also provides additional methods, which can be used to execute more specific tasks, for example methods for an optimized content access providing an internal virtual filesystem or an archive byte stream trying to avoid unnecessary conversions depending on the actual input format,

The localization package has been adapted, accordingly. The localize.Instantiate method now prefers to use the download handlers to get to the filesystem content to be configured, instead of expecting an archive resource. Therefore, any (potentially own) resource type with any format can be used, as long as there is an appropriate downloader configured for the used OCM context. An optional additional parameter can be used to restrict the accepted resource types to an explicitly given set of types.

Use cases

If you use dirtree.New(...).Download(...) you explicitly use the dirtree downloader and nothing else. It only checks the mime types, but not the resource types. So, you can enforce to use it on resources, regardless of their type to download dirtree-like resources (with a matching mime type).

If you use download.For(...).Download(...) it tries to find a registered downloader with registration criteria matching the actual resource. This can be used without bothering with the kind of actually used resource (to just download it, whatever it is in a standard manner). If a matching downloader is found, it is used, otherwise just the blob is downloaded as provided by the access method. Here, for sure the dirtree downloader is used for the standard scenarios (it is registered for). This is especially the directoryTree resource type with the tar-like mimetypes and the oci artifact archive mime type. But it is not used for other scenarios.

So, if you want to use an own resource type (directly expressing the dedicated new meaning of a general filesystem content), for example gitOpsTemplate, which is more expressive than just directoryTree. You can

• either register the dirtree handler in advance for your OCM context and for this resource type at the
• registry (then it would automatically be chosen for all downloads using this context)
• or you know what you are doing, and explicitly call the dirtree downloader on such a resource.

If, for example gitOpsTemplate should be a standard resource type, we should add such a registration as part of the standard.

Another possible scenario, where you might want to use the explicit dirtree usage is to overwrite the standard behaviour for a special use case. For example, an OCI image is typically downloaded as OCI artifact with the distribution spec format. But. if you want to access the effective filesystem, you could explicitly use the dirtree downloader for an OCI image, which handles this for you. It would make less sense to use it on a helm chart OCI artifact, because here the layers have a different meaning than building a directory tree.

Registration Handler

It provides a registration handler with the path ocm/dirtree. and a config object with the fields:

• asArchive bool: download as archive (default is directory tree).
• ociConfigtypes []string: list of accepted OCI manifest config media types. Default is the OCI image config media type.

func CopyDir

func CopyDir(srcfs vfs.FileSystem, src string, dstfs vfs.FileSystem, dst string) (int64, int64, error)

CopyDir recursively copies a directory tree, attempting to preserve permissions. Source directory must exist, destination directory may exist. Symlinks are ignored and skipped.
