Ledisdb is a high performance NoSQL like Redis written by go. It supports some data structure like kv, list, hash, zset, bitmap,set.

LedisDB now supports multiple databases as backend to store data, you can test and choose the proper one for you.

• Rich data structure: KV, List, Hash, ZSet, Bitmap, Set.
• Stores lots of data, over the memory limit.
• Various backend database to use: LevelDB, goleveldb, LMDB, RocksDB, BoltDB, Memory.
• Supports transaction using LMDB or BotlDB.
• Supports lua scripting.
• Supports expiration and ttl.
• Supports using redis-cli directly.
• Easy to embed in your own Go application.
• HTTP API support, json/bson/msgpack output.
• Replication to guarantee data safe.
• Supplies tools to load, dump, repair database.

Create a workspace and checkout ledisdb source

mkdir $WORKSPACE
cd $WORKSPACE
git clone git@github.com:siddontang/ledisdb.git src/github.com/siddontang/ledisdb

cd src/github.com/siddontang/ledisdb

#install go dependences
./bootstrap.sh

#set build and run environment 
source dev.sh

make
make test

LedisDB supports building with godep which can manage LedisDB go dependence automatically.

• Install leveldb and snappy.

  LedisDB supplies a simple script to install leveldb and snappy:

    sudo sh tools/build_leveldb.sh
  

  It will default install leveldb at /usr/local/leveldb and snappy at /usr/local/snappy.

  LedisDB use the modified LevelDB for better performance, see here.

  You can use other LevelDB (like Hyper LevelDB, Basho LevelDB) instead easily, the only thing you may pay attention to is that the header files must be in include/leveldb folder not include/hyperleveldb or other.

• Set LEVELDB_DIR and SNAPPY_DIR to the actual install path in dev.sh.

• make clean && make

• Install rocksdb(make shared_lib) and snappy first.

  LedisDB has not supplied a simple script to install, maybe later.

• Set ROCKSDB_DIR and SNAPPY_DIR to the actual install path in dev.sh.

• make clean && make

Because RocksDB API may change sometimes, LedisDB may not build successfully. Now LedisDB supports RocksDB version 3.5 or newest master branch.

LedisDB now supports goleveldb, lmdb, leveldb, rocksdb, boltdb, memory. it will use goleveldb as default to store data if you don't set.

Choosing a store database to use is very simple, you have two ways:

• Set in server config file

    db_name = "leveldb"
  

• Set in command flag

    ledis-server -config=/etc/ledis.conf -db_name=leveldb
  

  Flag command set will overwrite config set.

• Compile and install lua
• Set LUA_DIR to the actual path in dev.sh
• make clean && make

LedisDB uses toml as the configuration format. The basic configuration ./etc/ledis.conf in LedisDB source may help you.

If you don't use a configuration, LedisDB will use the default for you.

//set run environment if not
source dev.sh

ledis-server -config=/etc/ledis.conf

//another shell
ledis-cli -p 6380

ledis 127.0.0.1:6380> set a 1
OK
ledis 127.0.0.1:6380> get a
"1"

//use curl
curl http://127.0.0.1:11181/SET/hello/world
→ {"SET":[true,"OK"]}

curl http://127.0.0.1:11181/0/GET/hello?type=json
→ {"GET":"world"}

import "github.com/siddontang/ledisdb/ledis"
l, _ := ledis.Open(cfg)
db, _ := l.Select(0)

db.Set(key, value)

db.Get(key)

Set slaveof in config or dynamiclly

ledis-cli -p 6381 

ledis 127.0.0.1:6381> slaveof 127.0.0.1 6380
OK

• You must known that changing store database runtime is very dangerous, LedisDB will not guarantee the data validation if you do it.
• Begin a transaction will block any other write operators before you call commit or rollback. Don't use long-time transaction.
• pcall and xpcall are not supported in lua, you can see the readme in golua.
