Rustbreak

Documentation

This is a continuation of Rustbreak project, which was archived. This is a Ruby daybreak inspired self-contained file database. It is meant to be fast and simple to use. You add it to your application and it should just work for you. The only thing you will have to take care of is saving.

When to use it

This library started out because of a need to be able to quickly write an application in rust that needed some persistence while still being able to write arbitrary data to it.

In Ruby there is daybreak however for Rust there was no similar crate, until now!

When not to use it

Rustbreak makes several trade-offs to be easy to use and extend, so knowing of these drawbacks is important if you wish to use the library:

• The Database needs to fit into memory (Rustbreak cannot do partial loads/saves, so if the Database exceeds your available memory you will run OOM)
• Not all backends support atomic saves, so if your program crashes while it is saving you might save incomplete data (Notably only PathBackend supports atomic saves)

Features

• Simple To Use, Fast, Secure
• Threadsafe
• Serde compatible storage (ron, bincode, or yaml included)
