📂 Simple Network File System

About

This client-server network file system is built on top of a provided virtual disk featuring an indexed block allocation approach. The disk includes a Superblock, Free block bitmap, Inodes (for files and directories), and Datablocks. The client and server communicate over a persistent TCP connection.

Supported commands

• ls: List the contents of the current directory
• cd <directory>: Change to a specified directory
• home: Switch to the home (root) directory (similar to cd / in Unix)
• rmdir <directory>: Remove a directory. The directory must be empty
• create <filename>: Create an empty file
• append <filename> <data>: Append data to an existing file
• stat <name>: Display information for a given file or directory
• cat <filename>: Display the contents of a file
• head <filename> <n>: Display the first n bytes of the file
• rm <filename>: Remove a file
