leveldb.nim

A self-contained LevelDB wrapper for Nim in a Nim friendly way. Uses git-submodule and nimterop so that no external libraries have to be installed or linked.

Original nim LevelDB wrapper: HERE

Replacing of system library dependency with self-contained C/CPP interoperability by (Codex.Storage)[https://codex.storage]

Create a database:

   import leveldbstatic
   import options

   var db = leveldb.open("/tmp/mydata")

Read or modify the database content:

   assert db.getOrDefault("nothing", "") == ""

   db.put("hello", "world")
   db.put("bin", "GIF89a\1\0")
   echo db.get("hello")
   assert db.get("hello").isSome()

   var key, val = ""
   for key, val in db.iter():
     echo key, ": ", repr(val)

   db.delete("hello")
   assert db.get("hello").isNone()

Batch writes:

   let batch = newBatch()
   for i in 1..10:
     batch.put("key" & $i, $i)
   batch.delete("bin")
   db.write(batch)

Iterate over subset of database content:

   for key, val in db.iterPrefix(prefix = "key1"):
     echo key, ": ", val
   for key, val in db.iter(seek = "key3", reverse = true):
     echo key, ": ", val

   db.close()
