An amazing, simple and fun database for humans
- Coding is fun, so databases must be fun too.
- Data is the king.
- Data should be stored in the system as a file whenever a change happens.
- Data storage in the system must be hackable.
- The database can lead or connect your server components.
- Events are great... because we are asynchronous.
- We prefer facts over promises: facts are there, promises maybe yes or not. In fact, we're talking about callbacks.
- Data is not the only stuff that can be store in a database.
- We prefer ambush functions over lambda functions. As you know... we're talking about anonymous functions.
const GDB = require("@goblindb/goblindb");
const goblinDB = GDB(function(dbError) {
if (dbError) {
throw dbError;
}
console.log("Fear the Goblin!")
// Events supported
goblinDB.on('change', function(changes){
console.log("-- change detected!:", changes)
console.log("====================")
});
// Read all Database...
const originalData = goblinDB.get();
console.log("originalData:", originalData);
// Store data...
goblinDB.set({"data": "world!", "data2": "Hiiiii"});
// Update date...
goblinDB.update({"new data": "hellooo....", "new array": ["aaaa", true, 2], "data": "cambiado!"})
// Read all Database...
const currentData = goblinDB.get();
console.log("currentData:", currentData)

🎉🎉 Finally, here we are! Releasing the version one, the first production quality version available ever. We're very proud to reach this step in the project life! 🎉🎉
After almost one month working with the last version v0.0.11 Meigas we're pretty sure the database is reliable to be used in a production environment. So here we are releasing the kraken!
Bug fixes:
- Improve and update the project demo.
Notices:
- Evangelization process is going on (Talks, documentation, workshops...)
- We are looking for active evangelists, ping us ;-)
We've found bugs... bugs which didn't make sense, like meigas it looks like there is none but in the end there were some big bugs like db not storing data in the json and other similar "features"
Wellcome to the new members of the team ❤️ Andrés @drewler (The Galician Tigger), Santiago @trigoporres (El potro de Vallecas) and Alvaro @alvarogtx300 (El ausente )

Main target:
- Version 1 candidate.
- Remove eval. Improved how data gets saved and loaded.
- Various code improvements.
- Events improvements.
- Add callback to goblin init method (now async loading json db files).
- Allow using a custom pointer symbol (you can use '/' for example, instead of '.' (default)). Configurable in init method config. Issue 36 Pull Request 42 Thanks to Santiago Trigo Porres 💯
- Add delete and truncate methods to database. Issue 38 PR Pull Request 34
- Add error events hook. Now you can listen to
goblinDBInstance.on('error', callback...). Issue 37 Pull Request 43 Thanks to Alvaro 💯 - Add test cases for events. Issue 8 Pull Request 44
