Open Source Python File Systems

Qualm is a graphical tool for persistent resource management. While Qualm is initially aimed at providing an entirely new method of doing disk quota management, qualm can be used for managing any persistent finite resource.

Tool to use from Python interactive interpreter or script. Use it to make JSON indexes of all files in a directory, or files of a certain type. Could be used to observe activity in a server directory, to generate JSON to send to clients searching remotely, or to keep an index of files in a directory when the user of that directory does not have permission to probe the files system for files without knowing their names. Uses a configuration file, or optionally you can pass configuration information as keyword arguments. Also see recursive example.
