GoSquashfs

A PURE Go library to read and write squashfs. Right now I'm focusing on unsquashing. Currently IS NOT a functional library. Some things that are currently public IS going to become private. Not very well documented either.

It's roughly based on distri's squashfs library

Special thanks to https://dr-emann.github.io/squashfs/ for some VERY important information in an easy to understand format. Thanks also to distri's squashfs library as I referenced it to figure some things out.

Working

• Reading the header
• Reading data blocks (whether encrypted or not)
• Reading inodes
• Reading directories
• Basic gzip compression (Shouldn't be too hard to implement other, but for right now, this works)

Not Working (Yet). Roughly in order.

• Give a list of files
  • In string & io.FileStat (?) form
• Extracting files
  • from inodes.
  • from path.
  • from file info.
• Reading the UID, GUID, Xatt, Compression Options, Export, and Fragment tables.
• Implement other compression types (Should be relatively easy)
• Squashing
