elizaos-plugin-inmemorydb 2.0.0a4

Pure in-memory, ephemeral database storage for elizaOS

elizaos-plugin-inmemorydb

A pure in-memory, ephemeral database adapter for elizaOS (Python implementation). All data is completely lost on process restart or when close() is called.

Features

• Zero Configuration: No database setup required - just works out of the box
• Zero Persistence: Data is never written to disk
• Completely Ephemeral: All data is lost when the process ends
• Vector Search: Built-in HNSW index for semantic similarity search (also ephemeral)
• Async Support: Full async/await support with Python 3.11+

When to Use

This plugin is ideal for:

• ✅ Testing and CI/CD: Perfect for tests that need a fresh database each run
• ✅ Stateless deployments: When you want agents to start fresh each time
• ✅ Development: Quick prototyping without persistence overhead
• ✅ Privacy-focused applications: When data should never be stored
• ✅ Demos and examples: Clean slate for each demonstration

Not recommended for:

• ❌ Production systems that need data persistence
• ❌ Long-running agents that need to remember past interactions
• ❌ Multi-process deployments (data is not shared between processes)

Installation

pip install elizaos-plugin-inmemorydb

Quick Start

from elizaos_plugin_inmemorydb import InMemoryDatabaseAdapter, MemoryStorage

# Create storage and adapter
storage = MemoryStorage()
adapter = InMemoryDatabaseAdapter(storage, agent_id)
await adapter.init()

# Use the adapter...

# When done, close to clear all data
await adapter.close()
