FsGateway allows you to use your preferred directory navigation tool to inspect a database's metadata, sugar datastores and xml files.

It allows you to compare two database structures in an easy way using the diff tool, or to find where a field is defined using the grep tool.

At the moment it supports the following mode of operation:

tagfs: Rewrites a directory tree using directory names as tags

xmlfs: Map the structure of an xml file as a directory tree. It supports elements, attributes and texts. The resulting path of a node is similar to its XPath path.

sugar datastore: Access a sugar datastore as a normal filesystem.

databases: Access a database's metadata as a directory tree. Drivers are available for PostgreSQL, MySql, Sqlite and SqlServer
