Daemon that enables reading/writing of flat-file key/value databases available via HTTP API, using REST/JSON or Protobufs.
- "NoSQL databases go from filesystem to docker microservice"
- Written in safe rust
- Can be queried by stock HTTP clients
- Modern HTTP service with threads, HTTP/2 etc.
- Beyond Get/Put/Delete, expose db-specific operations such as transactions or batch-update.
- Access multiple databases simultaneously from a single HTTP endpoint.
- Support multiple database back-ends (sled, lmdb, more soon)
- Docker-friendly Zero configuration mode
- Requirements: Rust 2018+ and
protoccompiler. - Quick Start: see below
- Configuration: config.md
- Remote HTTP API: api.md
Standard rust cargo multi-binary setup:
$ cargo build
$ cargo run --bin kvdbd
Zeroconf docker example, with sled database stored on docker volume dbdata:
$ docker volume create dbdata
$ docker run --rm -p 8080:8080 -v dbdata:/data jgarzik/kvdbd \
kvdbd --bind-addr 0.0.0.0 --sled /data/sled.db
$ curl http://127.0.0.1:8080/ | json_pp
Integration testing is performed via a separate binary, tester.
$ cargo run --bin tester
