Le db

Generator style node interface to LevelDB.

Usage

var le = require('le');
var co = require('co');

var db = le('db');

co(function*(){
  yield db.set('foo', 'bar');
  console.log('foo: %s', yield db.get('foo'));
})();

Installation

$ npm install le

Roadmap

• get, set, delete
• batches
• prefix ranges
• interval ranges
• test suite
• streaming iteration
• encodings
• plugin interface (no monkey patching!)
• nesting
• client

API

db(path)

Create or open the db at path.

db#get*(key)

Get the value at key.

db#set*(key, value)

Set the value at key to value.

db#del*(key)

Delete the value at key.

db#batch()

Create a batch.

batch#set(key, value)

Queue setting key to value.

batch#del(key)

Queue deleting the value at key.

batch#end*()

Write the batch of operations.

db#keys*([range])

Get all keys (inside range).

db#values*([range])

Get all values (whose keys are inside range).

Ranges

db#keys() and db#values() accept string ranges of those formats:

• ""/"*": get all
• "prefix*": all keys must start with prefix
• "[from,to]", "[from,to)", "(from,to]", "(from,to)": all keys must be inside the interval, see interval notations. For infinity to x and vice versa omit the boundary, like [,to].

Encoding

For now, everything is stored as JSON.

Y u do this

• want db.use() instead of monkey patching
• generators for async ops
• generators for streams
• efficient nesting and less verbose ranges
