Quite some years ago I created a Python FUSE filesystem[1] to to interact with dokuwiki (a wiki system).

It's built on hde llfuse[2]. But that required implementing a bunch of low level APIs that were not really related to dokuwiki. So I created easyfuse[3][4] as a wrapper, which implemented the things that were unrelated the dokuwiki implementation. If you're interested it in building a FUSE system it might be worth looking at.

Can you tell what's the usecase for creating FUSE for dokuwiki? Basically, dokuwiki is just a bunch of text files so wouldn't it be simpler and more efficient to e.g. mount them as NFS or share via Dropbox/Syncthing?

I was forced to use the dokuwiki, but I very much disliked editing stuff in the web interface. Having a filesystem interface to the wiki system allowed me to create and edit pages using vim , which I like to use for writing.
