official Python connector for GetSetDB
Project description
getsetpy
Python connector for GetSetDB with official support.
Some familiarity with GetSetDB would come a long way in using getsetpy as most of the API calls by the space.Space
and database.Database
inter-actors comes directly from it. To learn GetSetDB, refer to A Tour of GetSetDB
Installation
$ pip install getsetpy
Usage
getsetpy provides an interface to GetSetDB by using inter-actors that provide a similar and easy to use API for sending commands to the Space or a particular Database.
Space API
To run Space commands, use the space.Space
inter-actor -
from getsetpy.space import Space
space = Space()
databases = space.ls() # returns list of all databases
space.new('users') # creates a new database
space.delete('old_database') # deletes an old database
space.rename('users', 'people') # renames 'user' database to 'people'
commands = space.commands() # returns a list of commands for "space"
Database API
To run commands for a specific Database, use the database.Database
inter-actor -
from getsetpy.database import Database
# connects to the 'users' database
users = Database('users')
# if it does not exist, it raises a DatabaseNotFound exception
# returns a dictionary with all the user keys as values and a redundant number as the key
users = users.all()
# returns an empty dictionary if no pairs are found
# but if the users database was populated like this -
# manan : yadav
# bruce : wayne
# martha : stewart
# kunal : pahuja
# peter : parker
# donald : trump
# barry : allen
# sheldon : cooper
# then the dictionary would look like
# {1.0: 'manan', 2.0: 'bruce', 3.0: 'martha', 4.0: 'kunal', 5.0: 'peter', 6.0: 'donald', 7.0: 'barry', 8.0: 'sheldon'}
# deletes the pair - donald : trump to database 'users'
users.delete('donald')
# gets the value for key 'barry'
users.get('barry')
# 'allen'
# adds the pair - wonder : woman to database 'users'
users.set('wonder', 'woman')
# returns a dictionary containg info about the database 'users'
# like its size in bytes and the path to its file
users.info()
# {'size': '136 bytes', 'path': '/tmp/gsdb/users.gsdb'}
# returns the number of pairs in the 'users' database
users.count()
# 8
