Fli, the CLI to FlockerHub, is like Git for data. Just like you can use Git to copy, branch, push and pull code, you can use Fli to copy, branch, push and pull your data volumes.

fli's Issues

Support for static filesystem volume(set) names?

Running fli create volumesetname volumename creates uuid paths inside the mounted zpool like /chq/fc3d6776-d76a-4d90-8ec3-89f348b3536d/ba603e7a-e529-4aa4-b126-7989432c3662.

For automation it's not suitable, because you have to manually change the docker volume path to point to a volume in the volumeset(I guess?). Is there going to be support for static volumeset/volume paths? Or am I confused as to how docker volumes should work together with fli?

"Invalid VHUT format" during fli config

I have created an account on flockerhub and created a token.

Then I followed the guide and configured fli to use the token:

fli config --token $HOME/token.txt

Problem is I get the following response from fli:

Invalid VHUT format

fli push fails with error "Differ error too many levels of symbolic links"

While following examples in https://github.com/ClusterHQ/examples I encounter the following error:

docker@fli-vm:~$ fli push richardw-volumeset-1
Upload snapshot 0f0a9aa6-768b-401b-8c1f-e44e59ed6992 failed: Put http://ec2-35-160-189-40.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com:80/upload?token=98ec9168-3307-4517-927f-87f308b0acba: Differ error too many levels of symbolic links

The volumeset, volume and snapshots show up at www.flockerhub.clusterhq.com.

Support for docker.app on Mac

Would be great to have support for the official docker app on mac. I did attempt to install ZFS in the xhyve VM but stopped short of getting the ZFS kernel module working.
