Several checks for ReadStream with offset around boundary conditions were
missing. The new checks ensure negative offsets are detected and io.EOF is
returned properly when trying to read past the end of a file. The filesystem
and inmemory driver have been updated accordingly.
An outline of missing checks for List are also part of this commit. Action will
be taken here based on discussion in issue #819.
This change started out as simply updating the existing inmemory driver to
implement the new Stat call. After struggling with the map based
implementation, it has been refactored to be a tree-based implementation.
This process has exposed a few missing error cases in the StorageDriver API
that should be addressed in the coming weeks.
This change brings the storagedriver API in line with the Go standard library's
use of int64 for offsets. The main benefit is simplicity in interfacing with
the io library reducing the number of type conversions in simple code.
Fixes/tests listing for keys beginning with "/"
No longer extraneously wraps Closers in ioutil.NopClosers
Uses omitempty for all ipc struct type fields
Custom storage drivers can register a factory to create the driver by
name, similar to the database/sql package's Register and Open
factory.Create returns an in-process driver if registered or an IPC
driver if one can be found, erroring otherwise
This standardizes parameter passing for creation of storage drivers
Also adds documentation for storagedriver package and children
