The preferred method of selecting a storage driver is using the `StorageDriverFactory` interface in the `storagedriver/factory` package. These factories provide a common interface for constructing storage drivers with a parameters map. The factory model is based off of the [Register](http://golang.org/pkg/database/sql/#Register) and [Open](http://golang.org/pkg/database/sql/#Open) methods in the builtin [database/sql](http://golang.org/pkg/database/sql) package.
Storage driver factories may be registered by name using the `factory.Register` method, and then later invoked by calling `factory.Create` with a driver name and parameters map. If no driver is registered with the given name, this factory will attempt to find an executable storage driver with the same name and return an IPC storage driver wrapper managing the driver subprocess. If no such storage driver can be found, `factory.Create` will return an `InvalidStorageDriverError`.

Driver Contribution
===================

Storage drivers should call `factory.Register` with their driver name in an `init` method, allowing callers of `factory.New` to construct instances of this driver without requiring modification of imports throughout the codebase.
### Out-of-process drivers
As many users will run the registry as a pre-constructed docker container, storage drivers should also be distributable as IPC server executables. Drivers written in go should model the main method provided in `main/storagedriver/filesystem/filesystem.go`. Parameters to IPC drivers will be provided as a JSON-serialized map in the first argument to the process. These parameters should be validated and then a blocking call to `ipc.StorageDriverServer` should be made with a new storage driver.

## Testing
Storage driver test suites are provided in `storagedriver/testsuites/testsuites.go` and may be used for any storage driver written in go. Two methods are provided for registering test suites, `RegisterInProcessSuite` and `RegisterIPCSuite`, which run the same set of tests for the driver imported or managed over IPC respectively.
