nanodb is a small database engine based on:

• tokyo cabinet B+ tree, for storage;
• libev, for networking and
• ragel, for parsing.

It's mostly will be a key-value store for now, but I hope to make it look more like a real db someday.

nanodb yourdb.ndb 5000

$ nc localhost 5000 << EOF
PUT mykey
this is the value stored in the key.
EOF

$ echo 'GET mykey' | nc localhost 5000
this is the value stored in the key.

For now, you'll need to build tokyo cabinet in vendor and install ragel. I'll automate this someday, but for now... good luck!
