fbdb

fbdb is a file-based database. It is basically a SQL database that has file-like columns (Name, Date, Data) etc. It has some benefit to using a real filesystem for some instances, in that you can store millions of files without problems and you can also add compression.

Install

$ go get -v github.com/schollz/fbdb

Usage

You can insert data as "files":

fs, _ := fbdb.Open("new.db")
defer fs.Close()
f, _ := fs.NewFile("filename", []byte("data"))
fs.Save(f)

You can can retrieve files by name:

f, _ := fs.Get("filename")

You can use a callback to retrieve a selection of files:

fs.GetAll(func(f fbdb.File) bool {
	fmt.Println(f)
	if f.Name == "?" {
		return true // will stop getting
	}
	return false // will continue getting next file
}, "SELECT * FROM fs")

See examples for more information.
