Is there any way to maintain a virtual file system with SFTP Server?  All the data for my files lives in a database.  Ideally I would provide a list of files on demand by constructing a list from the database.  Then I would dynamically generate those on the fly if the user tries to download one.  

That way I could keep my sftp server in a lightweight docker container without a persistent storage volume, I could save on monthly storage costs, and from a security perspective I could minimize my attack surface (some files are sensitive).

Is there any way to accomplish this with SFTP Server?  Perhaps with the ShellCommand event?
