Linux LVM API for using python or Golang
I’m not aware of anything but you might want to look at the TopoLVM lvmd implementation. It’s a Kubernetes storage plugin for LVM and it talks to a interface daemon over gRPC so it might be useful inspiration at least.

How to format drives for local persistent volumes
there are local CSI-s like: https://github.com/topolvm/topolvm https://blog.min.io/introducing-directpv/

Deploy Ghost with MySQL DB replication using helm chart
Deploy local-path-provisioner storage class but it does not support readwritemany so for high availability of your Kubernetes cluster better to use longhorn

lvp: Local Volume CSI Provisioner -- Dynamic PV Provisioning for your Home Cluster
I use this one. I'm waiting for the day it's combined with syncthing to sync across all nodes. https://github.com/rancher/local-path-provisioner

issues with pv retaining data on local-path SC
So I have this single node k3s cluster. k3s uses local-path (https://github.com/rancher/local-path-provisioner) as default SC that allows one to create dynamic volumes using nodes local storage.

How to format drives for local persistent volumes
Just create 1 single partition and format it with whatevery filesystem you like. And then use ranchers local-path-provisioner which will create a folder per PV (k3s has this integrated by default).

Persisting data in a dynamic volume?
Tinkering locally with local path provisioner (https://github.com/rancher/local-path-provisioner), I find that I can delete and re-create the pod, and the data persists on disk. However, if I delete the PVC, when I recreate the PVC, a new directory on disk is created.

Issues with "victoria-metrics-k8s-stack", monitoring k8s targets
It is better to use https://github.com/rancher/local-path-provisioner (or similar) for this case which will do PVC on local directories because manually linking PV<>PVC will not work.
-
single node k8s on nuc - homelab/prod - storage question
Since you only have one physical node anyway, I would just make the cluster a single-node cluster (1 VM) and use local storage on that VM. I’m biased though because this is what I do (I run K3s and use local path provisioner).

Using local disks for both K8s workloads, and exporting via SMB?
Rancher's Local Path Provisioner - From reading, seems to just use HostPath or Local PVs under the hood, but adds dynamic provisoning

Kubernetes: How to Persistent Storage
With any of those tools, you'd implement a network storage on top of a network storage. I would go with mouting few volumes per node +local storage like (https://github.com/rancher/local-path-provisioner).
