Subject: Virtual File System (Local, S3, SFTP)

Virtual File System has been released.

Documentation: http://alexeypetrushin.github.com/vfs

Virtual File System provides clean, simple and unified API over
different storages (Local File System, AWS S3, SFTP).

I/O operations:

    home['projects/app'].files
    # => ['Rakefile', 'readme']

    readme = home['projects/app/readme']
    readme.copy_to other_project['readme']
    readme.move_to home['Desktop']

    readme.write 'My Cool App'
    readme.update{|text| text.gsub /App/, 'App v2'}
    readme.read
    # => "My Cool App v2"

    app['**/*.rb']
    # => [list of *.rb files]

    app['**/*.rb'].collect(&:size).reduce(:+)
    # => sources size

Same API on any storage type, let's copy application assets to S3:

    box = Box.new aws_credentials
    app['public'].copy_to box['/']

Same API for SFTP, deploying our App:

    server = Box.new 'app.com'
    app.copy_to server['/apps/app']
    server['/apps/app'].bash 'server start'
