cygnusdb 0.1

Simple, lightweight python database.

# CygnusDB

CygnusDB is a lightweight python database that uses no external libraries.

• Uses JSON for data storage with the .db file extension.

• Uses OS for file path.

• Basic functionality: set, get, delete, and reset

## Why use CygnusDB?

• It’s simple. It takes very few lines of code to modify a database file, and it works for basic applications where MongoDB or SQLITE are overkill.

• It’s easy to get started with. All you do is import cygnusdb, set the file path to your .db file, and write whatever code you need to utilize the database.

### Installation

Currently CygnusDB is not on PyPi, so you have to clone the repo and execute pip install . in the root directory of the project.

### Usage

In order to use CygnusDB, you need to install it like is outlined above. After installation, you simply need to import it:

`py from cygnusdb import CygnusDB `

Then, define the file path of your .db file:

`py db = CygnusDB("./user.db") `

Once that is done, you can modify database data with simple code:

`py db.set("name" , "Xhsted") `

And retrieve the data:

`py db.get("name") `

Since it uses JSON, the data is very versatile, and you can save data under any name you may want, such as a name, email, or even a personal bio.
