NAME

       httpfs2 - mount a file from a http server into the filesystem

SYNOPSIS

       httpfs2 [OPTIONS] URL FUSE-OPTIONS httpfs2_ssl [OPTIONS] URL FUSE-OPTIONS

DESCRIPTION

       httpfs2 is a FUSE based filesystem for mounting http or https URLS as files in the
       filesystem. There is no notion of listable directories in http so only a single URL can be
       mounted. The server must be able to send byte ranges.

OPTIONS

       -c console
           Attempt to use the file ior device console for output after fork. The default is
           /dev/console.

       -f
           Do not fork, stay in foreground.

       -t timeout
           Use different timeout for connections. Default '30’s.

       URL
           The url should specify the protocol as http or https, and it may specify basic
           authentication username and password. Currently special characters like whitespace are
           not handled so the URL cannot contain them. See a sample URL below:

               http://user:password@server.com/dir/file

       FUSE-OPTIONS
           These options are passed to the FUSE library. At the very least the mount point should
           be specified.

EXIT STATUS

       0
           Successfully connected to the server

       other
           Failure (url parsing error, server error, FUSE setup error). Some FUSE errors may
           happen only after the process forks so they will not be returned in exit value.

BUGS

       The process can be stopped by typing ^Z on the terminal which may not be desirable under
       some circumstances.
