# VFS Initialization Guide
|
||||
# VFS Initialization Guide (v5.1.0+)
|
||||
|
||||
## Quick Start
|
||||
|
||||
The Brainy VFS requires proper initialization before use. Here's the correct pattern:
|
||||
The Brainy VFS is automatically initialized during `brain.init()`. No separate initialization needed!
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
import { Brainy } from '@soulcraft/brainy'
|
||||
|
||||
// Step 1: Create and initialize Brainy
|
||||
// Create and initialize Brainy
|
||||
const brain = new Brainy({
|
||||
storage: { type: 'filesystem', path: './data' }
|
||||
})
|
||||
await brain.init() // VFS is auto-initialized here!
|
||||
|
||||
// Use VFS immediately - it's a property, not a method!
|
||||
await brain.vfs.writeFile('/test.txt', 'Hello World')
|
||||
const files = await brain.vfs.readdir('/')
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## What Changed in v5.1.0?
|
||||
|
||||
### Before (v4.x and early v5.0.0):
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
const brain = new Brainy(...)
|
||||
await brain.init()
|
||||
|
||||
// Step 2: Get VFS instance (it's a METHOD, not a property!)
|
||||
const vfs = brain.vfs() // ✅ Correct: method call with ()
|
||||
|
||||
// Step 3: Initialize VFS (THIS IS REQUIRED!)
|
||||
await vfs.init() // Creates the root directory
|
||||
|
||||
// Now you can use VFS
|
||||
await vfs.writeFile('/test.txt', 'Hello World')
|
||||
const files = await vfs.readdir('/')
|
||||
const vfs = brain.vfs() // ❌ Method call
|
||||
await vfs.init() // ❌ Separate initialization
|
||||
await vfs.writeFile(...)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Common Mistakes
|
||||
|
||||
### ❌ Mistake 1: Accessing VFS as Property
|
||||
### After (v5.1.0+):
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// WRONG - vfs is a method, not a property
|
||||
const vfs = brain.vfs // Missing parentheses!
|
||||
const brain = new Brainy(...)
|
||||
await brain.init() // VFS auto-initialized!
|
||||
|
||||
await brain.vfs.writeFile(...) // ✅ Property access, just works!
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### ❌ Mistake 2: Forgetting to Initialize VFS
|
||||
### Key Changes:
|
||||
1. **`vfs()` → `vfs`**: Method call becomes property access
|
||||
2. **Auto-initialization**: VFS initialized during `brain.init()`
|
||||
3. **Zero complexity**: No separate `vfs.init()` call needed
|
||||
4. **Consistent pattern**: VFS treated like any other brain API
|
||||
|
||||
## Migration from v4.x/v5.0.0
|
||||
|
||||
### Old Pattern (DEPRECATED):
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
const vfs = brain.vfs()
|
||||
// Missing: await vfs.init()
|
||||
await vfs.writeFile('/test.txt', 'data') // Error: VFS not initialized
|
||||
await vfs.init()
|
||||
await vfs.writeFile('/test.txt', 'data')
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### ❌ Mistake 3: Not Waiting for Initialization
|
||||
### New Pattern (v5.1.0+):
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
const vfs = brain.vfs()
|
||||
vfs.init() // Missing await!
|
||||
await vfs.readdir('/') // Error: VFS not initialized (init still running)
|
||||
// Just remove the () and init() call
|
||||
await brain.vfs.writeFile('/test.txt', 'data')
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Why Initialization is Required
|
||||
## Why Auto-Initialization?
|
||||
|
||||
The VFS `init()` method performs critical setup:
|
||||
VFS stores files as entities and relationships in the same graph as everything else. There's no reason to treat it differently! Auto-initialization:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Creates the root directory entity** in Brainy's graph database
|
||||
2. **Initializes the PathResolver** for efficient path lookups
|
||||
3. **Sets up caching layers** for performance
|
||||
4. **Starts background tasks** for maintenance
|
||||
5. **Configures storage adapters** based on your settings
|
||||
|
||||
Without initialization, the root directory (`/`) doesn't exist, which is why operations fail with "Not a directory: /" errors.
|
||||
- ✅ **Simpler API**: One less step to remember
|
||||
- ✅ **Fewer errors**: Can't forget to initialize
|
||||
- ✅ **More intuitive**: Property access feels natural
|
||||
- ✅ **Consistent**: Matches how other brain APIs work

## Error Messages
|
||||
|
||||
If you see this error:
|
||||
```
|
||||
VFS not initialized. You must call await vfs.init() after getting the VFS instance.
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
const vfs = brain.vfs() // Note: vfs() is a method, not a property
|
||||
await vfs.init() // This creates the root directory
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
It means you forgot to initialize VFS. Follow the example in the error message.

If you see this error:
|

```
|
||||
Brainy not initialized. Call init() first.
|
||||
```
|

|
||||
It means you tried to use VFS before calling `brain.init()`. Always initialize Brainy first:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
class AutoInitVFS {
|
||||
constructor(config) {
|
||||
this.brain = new Brainy(config)
|
||||
this.vfs = null
|
||||
this.initPromise = null

await brain.init() // Required!

await brain.vfs.writeFile(...) // Now this works

||||
async ensureInit() {
|
||||
if (!this.initPromise) {
|
||||
this.initPromise = this._initialize()
|
||||
}
|
||||
await this.initPromise

||||
}
|
||||
## Fork Support (v5.0.0+)
|
||||
|
||||
async _initialize() {

|
||||
VFS works seamlessly with Brainy's Copy-on-Write (COW) fork feature:
|
||||
|
||||
// Wrap all VFS methods
|
||||
async writeFile(path, data) {
|
||||
await this.ensureInit()
|
||||
return this.vfs.writeFile(path, data)

}

## FAQ
|
||||
|
||||
### Q: Why doesn't VFS auto-initialize?
|
||||
A: Explicit initialization gives you control over when the root directory is created and when background tasks start. This prevents unexpected side effects and makes the initialization cost visible.
|
||||
### Q: Do I need to call `vfs.init()` anymore?
|
||||
**A:** No! VFS is automatically initialized during `brain.init()` in v5.1.0+.
|
||||
|
||||
### Q: Can I reinitialize VFS?
|
||||
A: No, VFS can only be initialized once per instance. If you need to reset, create a new Brainy instance.
|
||||
### Q: Why did the API change from `vfs()` to `vfs`?
|
||||
**A:** VFS uses the same entity/relationship graph as everything else. There's no reason to treat it differently from other brain APIs.
|
||||
|
||||
### Q: What happens if Brainy isn't initialized?
|
||||
A: VFS initialization will fail. Always initialize Brainy first with `await brain.init()`.
|
||||
### Q: Will my old code break?
|
||||
**A:** If you're using `brain.vfs()` or `await vfs.init()`, you'll need to update to the new pattern. The migration is simple - just remove the `()` and `init()` calls.
|
||||
|
||||
### Q: Is the initialization pattern the same for all storage types?
|
||||
A: Yes, whether using memory, filesystem, S3, or R2 storage, the initialization pattern is identical.
|
||||
### Q: Can I still configure VFS?
|
||||
**A:** Yes, VFS configuration is passed through `brain.init()` config. The VFS-specific options are applied during auto-initialization.
|
||||
|
||||
### Q: Does this work with all storage adapters?
|
||||
**A:** Yes! VFS auto-initialization works with all storage adapters: Memory, FileSystem, OPFS, S3, R2, Azure Blob, and Google Cloud Storage.
|
||||
|
||||
### Q: What if I need multiple VFS instances?
|
||||
**A:** Each Brainy instance has its own VFS. Create multiple Brainy instances if you need multiple VFS instances.
