# fatfs-ng - Enhanced FatFS Python Wrapper

Enhanced Python wrapper around [ChaN's FatFS](http://elm-chan.org/fsw/ff/00index_e.html) library with extended features and ESP32 support.

This is a fork of [fatfs-python](https://github.com/krakonos/fatfs-python) by Ladislav Laska, with significant improvements and extended functionality.

## What's New in fatfs-ng

### Extended Features
- ✅ **Complete Directory Traversal**: `walk()`, `listdir()`, `stat()`
- ✅ **Path Operations**: `exists()`, `isfile()`, `isdir()`
- ✅ **File Operations**: `remove()`, `rmdir()`, `rename()`
- ✅ **Convenience Methods**: `makedirs()`, `read_file()`, `write_file()`
- ✅ **Bulk Operations**: `copy_tree_from()`, `copy_tree_to()`
- ✅ **ESP32 Wear Leveling**: Full support for ESP32 FAT filesystem images

### Improvements
- ✅ **Fixed SyntaxWarnings** in Python 3.13+
- ✅ **Abstract Base Class** for Disk with proper type hints
- ✅ **Better Error Messages** with descriptive exceptions
- ✅ **Comprehensive Documentation** with examples
- ✅ **Production Ready** for build and upload operations

## Installation

```bash
pip install fatfs-ng
```

## Quick Start

```python
from fatfs import RamDisk, create_extended_partition

# Create and format filesystem
storage = bytearray(1024 * 1024)  # 1MB
disk = RamDisk(storage, sector_size=512)
partition = create_extended_partition(disk)
partition.mkfs()
partition.mount()

# Use extended features
partition.makedirs("/test/dir", exist_ok=True)
partition.write_file("/test/file.txt", b"Hello fatfs-ng!")

# Walk directory tree
for root, dirs, files in partition.walk("/"):
    print(f"{root}: {files}")

# Copy entire tree
from pathlib import Path
partition.copy_tree_to("/", Path("./extracted"))

partition.unmount()
```

## ESP32 Wear Leveling Support

Create FAT filesystem images compatible with ESP32 Arduino Core's FFat library:

```python
from fatfs import (
    RamDisk, 
    Partition, 
    create_esp32_wl_image,
    calculate_esp32_wl_overhead
)

# Calculate overhead
partition_size = 1536 * 1024  # 1.5 MB
wl_info = calculate_esp32_wl_overhead(partition_size)
print(f"FAT data size: {wl_info['fat_size']} bytes")
print(f"WL overhead: {wl_info['wl_overhead_size']} bytes")

# Create FAT filesystem
storage = bytearray(wl_info['fat_size'])
disk = RamDisk(storage, sector_size=4096)
partition = Partition(disk)
partition.mkfs()
partition.mount()

# Add files
with partition.open("/test.txt", "w") as f:
    f.write(b"Hello ESP32!")

partition.unmount()

# Wrap with ESP32 wear leveling layer
wl_image = create_esp32_wl_image(storage, partition_size)

# Write to file for ESP32
with open("fatfs.bin", "wb") as f:
    f.write(wl_image)
```

Extract from ESP32 wear-leveling image:

```python
from fatfs import extract_fat_from_esp32_wl, is_esp32_wl_image

# Read image from ESP32
with open("downloaded.bin", "rb") as f:
    wl_image = f.read()

# Check if it's a WL image
if is_esp32_wl_image(wl_image):
    # Extract FAT data
    fat_data = extract_fat_from_esp32_wl(wl_image)
    
    # Mount and read
    disk = RamDisk(bytearray(fat_data), sector_size=4096)
    partition = Partition(disk)
    partition.mount()
    # ... read files ...
    partition.unmount()
```

## Features

### Basic Operations (from original fatfs-python)
- Mount/unmount FAT filesystems
- Create FAT filesystems (mkfs)
- Open, read, write files
- Create directories

### Extended Operations (new in fatfs-ng)
- Complete directory traversal with `walk()`
- List directory contents with `listdir()`
- Get file information with `stat()`
- Check path existence and type
- Delete files and directories
- Rename/move files
- Bulk copy operations

## Use Cases

### ESP32 Development with PlatformIO
Perfect for creating and extracting filesystem images for ESP32:

```python
# Build filesystem image
partition.copy_tree_from(Path("./data"), "/")

# Extract filesystem from device
partition.copy_tree_to("/", Path("./extracted"))
```

### Testing
Great for testing filesystem operations without real hardware:

```python
# Create in-memory filesystem for testing
storage = bytearray(1024 * 1024)
disk = RamDisk(storage)
partition = create_extended_partition(disk)
# ... run tests ...
```
