# Linux::Fuser
Discover which process has a file open, in pure Raku.
[](
https://travis-ci.org/jonathanstowe/p6-Linux-Fuser)
## Description
This is based on the similarly named module for Perl 5 available from CPAN.
Linux::Fuser provides a mechanism to determine which processes have
a specified file open in a similar manner to the system utility
*fuser*. There is an example program [raku-fuser](bin/raku-fuser) in
the *bin* directory which provides a Raku implementation of that command.
Because this relies on the layout of the /proc filesystem specific to the Linux
kernel it almost certainly will not work on any other operating system, though I
would be delighted to hear about any where it does work.
## Installation
Assuming you have a working Rakudo installation you should be able to install this with *zef* :
zef install Linux::Fuser
Or if you have a local clone of the repository
zef install .
## Support
Suggestions/patches are welcomed via github at:
https://github.com/jonathanstowe/Raku-Linux-Fuser/issues
I'm not able to test on a wide variety of platforms so any help there would be
appreciated.
