# dodb.cr
|
||
|
||
DODB stands for Document Oriented DataBase.
|
||
|
||
# Installation
|
||
|
||
Add the following to your `shard.yml`.
|
||
You may want to add version informations to avoid unexpected breakages.
|
||
|
||
```yaml
|
||
dependencies:
|
||
dodb:
|
||
git: https://git.karchnu.fr/WeirdOS/dodb.cr
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
# Usage
|
||
|
||
```crystal
|
||
db = DODB::DataBase(Thing).new
|
||
|
||
db << Thing.new
|
||
|
||
db.each do |thing|
|
||
pp! thing
|
||
end
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
```crystal
|
||
# First, we define the thing we’ll want to store.
|
||
# It *has* to be serializable through JSON, as everything in DODB is stored in JSON.
|
||
class Thing
|
||
include JSON::Serializable
|
||
|
||
property id : String
|
||
property category : String # In this example we’ll assume a unique category.
|
||
property tags : Array(String)
|
||
|
||
def initialize(@id, @category, @tags)
|
||
end
|
||
end
|
||
|
||
# Then we create our database.
|
||
things = DODB::DataBase(Thing).new
|
||
|
||
# Then we define indices to it. There are several ways to index things in DODB.
|
||
# Indices are the simplest way to do so. They represent attributes that are
|
||
# unique in the collection. They are “1-1” associations.
|
||
things_by_id = things.new_index "id", &.id
|
||
|
||
# Partitions represent attributes that are shared in the collection. They can
|
||
# be used to obtain entries grouped by value. They are “1-n” associations.
|
||
things_by_category = things.new_partition "category", &.category
|
||
|
||
# Tags are “n-n associations”.
|
||
things_by_tags = things.new_tags "tags", &.tags
|
||
|
||
# At this point, we can add or try to access data.
|
||
things << Thing.new "one", "word", ["number"] of String
|
||
things << Thing.new "two", "word", ["number"] of String
|
||
things << Thing.new "three", "word", ["number"] of String
|
||
things << Thing.new "hello, world", "sentence", [] of String
|
||
|
||
things_by_tags.get? "number" # Will return an array of three things ("one", "two", "three").
|
||
things_by_category.get? "sentence" # Will return an array of one thing ("hello, world")
|
||
things_by_id.get? "one" # Will return a single thing ("one")
|
||
|
||
```
