https://gitlab.com/rubdos/pyreflink/badges/master/build.svg

Python wrapper around the reflink system calls. Note: Python is implementing this natively upstream, cfr. https://bugs.python.org/issue37157.

Free software: MIT license
Documentation: https://reflink.readthedocs.io.

Features

Btrfs, XFS, OCFS2 reflink support. Btrfs is tested the most.

A convenience method that checks support for reflinks within a specific directory.

This library is available on pypi:

pip install reflink

To use Python reflink in a project:

from reflink import reflink
# Reflink copy 'large_file.img' to 'copy_of_file.img'
reflink("large_file.img", "copy_of_file.img")

Help wanted
