ldm - Lightweight Device Mounter
ldm [-d] [-u user] [-p path] [-c command] [-m mask] [-h]
ldm is a lightweight device mounter following the UNIX philosophy written in C and based on udev and libmount. The user can use umount to unmount the device or ldmc with the -r switch. The daemon can be controlled with the ldmc tool.
- -d
-
Run ldm as a daemon.
- -u user
-
Specify the user who owns the mountpoints.
- -p path
-
Specify the base folder for the mount points. The default is /mnt.
- -m fmask,dmask
-
Specify the fmask and dmask for the mounted devices in octal or symbolic format (eg. the octal mask 0777 is represented as rwxrwxrwx).
If only the fmask is specified then its used as umask and it's value is used as dmask too.
- -c command
-
Specifies a command that is executed after a successful mount/unmount action. The following environment variables are defined :
- LDM_MOUNTPOINT
-
The complete path to the mountpoint.
- LDM_NODE
-
The path pointing to the device node in /dev
- LDM_FS
-
The filesystem on the mounted device.
- LDM_ACTION
-
The action ldm has just performed, it can either be mount, pre_unmount or unmount
- -h
-
Print a brief help and exit.
ldm doesn't offer any blacklisting by itself but it honors the options found in the fstab so it will ignore any device with flag noauto.
The included systemd service expects a config file at /etc/ldm.conf similar to this:
MOUNT_OWNER=username
BASE_MOUNTPOINT=/mnt
ldmc(1), umount(8)
