## Usage ## Usage
``` ```
icfs <FUSE arguments> [target directory] [path to permanent permission database] Usage: icfs <FUSE arguments> [target directory] [path to the permanent permissions database] <ICFS arguments>
--no-grant-on-create - do not give any access permissions on file creation(incompatible with --perm-on-create)
--perm-on-create - automatically give permanent access permission to files a process creates (incompatible with --no-grant-on-create)
``` ```
The filesystem will be mounted over the target directory, and ask user permission every time a file in that directory is opened. We highly recommend adding `-o default_permissions` to increase performance and add an additional security layer. If you have installed icfs along with `/etc/icfs` folder, you can create your permanent permission databases in this folder (you might want to do this, if your home folder does not have the "execute" permission for other users).

The `env PATH="$(realpath ./build):$PATH"` adds the access dialogue program to PATH, allowing ICFS to call it seamlessly. The `env PATH="$(realpath ./build):$PATH"` adds the access dialogue program to PATH, allowing ICFS to call it seamlessly.
#### Running tests
ICFS includes a testing script in the `test` directory.
You can run it **from `test` directory** by running:
```
./test.bash
```
All testing artifacts will be available in the appropriate folders after run. To test setuid capabilities too (**from `test` directory!!!**):
```
./test.bash --setuid
```
You can also test performance by adding `--performance` (**from `test` directory!!!**):
```
./test.bash --performance
```
***Important:*** **flags cannot be combined together (e.g. you can't add `--performance` and `--setuid`)**
