dysk on macOS does not show mounted AFP filesystems

Open tessus opened this issue 1 month ago • 10 comments

Awesome that dysk is now available on macOS. I am mostly using Linux, but muscle memory gave me command not found countless times when on macOS. ;-)

Not sure, whether it is a bug, but on macOS no mounted filesystems are shown. I mostly use SMB and AFP, sometimes FUSE.

Can you please try

dysk --strategy diskutil

and tell me whether those disks appear ?

Unfortunately they don't.

Ok, I looked into it and I see what happens. I'll solve that as soon as I find the time.

@tessus Can you test https://github.com/Canop/dysk/pull/102 ?

If necessary, I can share a mac binary

Thanks for looking into it. With the PR:

  • dysk shows the SMB shares but not the AFP shares.
  • dysk --strategy diskutil shows only the local disk.

I'll have to look into AFP shares, I have no idea what those things are ^^

Before SMB was a thing, Apple had their own network fs. I'm not using it very often. I mostly use SMB on macOS and nfs on Linux.

Do you have to look into every type separately? I am asking because there are many remote filesystems. And what about the ones that are available via FUSE? Don't worry about it, when it is too muhc work. I was just curious.

I hoped I didn't have to. But when some mount type doesn't show in disk, I have no other solution than to mount it myself then look everywhere in the system where I could find it.

I changed the title to reopen, focusing on the remaining problem of the AFP shares.
