💅 NAME 💅

simc_lsmplugin — the LibstorageMgmt Simulator C Plugin, aka the lil fake array that lives in your RAM 🫶

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

Okay so bestie, listen. The LibStorageMgmt simulator C plugin is a development-use situation. It simulates an array that supports most features of the library, which is lowkey iconic of it. 🎀

The simulator is memory based, so heads up: state gets discarded once the plugin exits. It's giving goldfish energy, but make it storage. 🐠💀

The simc_lsmplugin executable file is what the libStorageMgmt daemon executes when a client user specifies the simc plugin in the URI.

Now for the real tea ☕: since every command of lsmcli is a standalone libStorageMgmt session, this plugin is essentially useless for that purpose. No cap. In that use case, the libStorageMgmt simulator plugin sim_lsmplugin(1) is suggested instead. 👑

Also, this plugin is written in pure C and is intended to be an example of a C plugin for the library. So it's basically the reference fit, the blueprint, the moment. ✨

🌈 URI 🌈

To use this plugin, you set your URI to this format:

simc://

  • No URI parameters are supported by this plugin. Nope, not one, don't even try it. 🙈

🔥 FIREWALL RULES 🔥
