Nim-RocksDB

Build Status (Travis) Windows build status (Appveyor) License: Apache License: MIT Stability: experimental

A Nim wrapper for Facebook's RocksDB, a persistent key-value store for Flash and RAM Storage.

Current status

Nim-RocksDB provides a wrapper for the low-level functions in the librocksdb c library.

Requirements

A RocksDB installation that provides librocksdb.so. This means that on Debian, and possibly on other Linux distros, you need "librocksdb-dev", not just a versioned "librocksdbX.Y" package that only provides librocksdb.so.X.Y.Z.

Usage

See simple_example

Static linking

To statically link librocksdb, you would do something like:

nim c -d:LibrocksbStaticArgs='-l:librocksdb.a' --gcc.linkerexe=g++ --threads:on your_program.nim

(we need the C++ linker profile because it's a C++ library)
