GoatDb

a log-structured-merge-tree, implemented in pure node.js. GOATSCALE!!!

Another goatscale db locket

var GoatDB = require('goatdb')
 
GoatDB('/tmp/goatdb-example').open(function (err, db) {
  db.put('hello', 'I am a goat', function (err) {
    db.put('whatevs', 'GOAT GOAT GOAT', function (err) {
      db.get('hello', function (err, value) {
        console.log(value)
      })
    })
  })
})

everything is just line separated json!

cat /tmp/goatdb-example/log-00000001.json

contains this.

{"key":"hello","value":"I am a goat","type":"put"}
{"key":"whatevs","value":"GOAT GOAT GOAT","type":"put"}

put more data in there and you'll get sst files too.

features

• GOATS
• crude pass at the leveldown api.
• probably lots of bugs.

TODO

• add more goats
• be leveldown compatible
• contrive benchmarks that goatdb will do really well at.
