vibedb 0.1.2

SQLite-based document database for vibe coders

VibeDB

SQLite-based document database for rapid prototyping

VibeDB combines SQLite's simplicity with MongoDB's document flexibility. Zero config, zero dependencies, instant start.

Installation

# Core only (zero dependencies)
pip install vibedb

# With Studio UI (includes Flask)
pip install vibedb[all]

Quick Start (30 seconds)

from vibedb import VibeDB, Q

# Create database
db = VibeDB("app.db")
users = db.collection("users")

# Insert
user_id = users.insert({"name": "Alice", "email": "[e-mail]", "age": 28})

# Query
results = users.find(Q.gte("age", 25) & Q.contains("email", "@example.com"))

# Update
users.update(user_id, {"age": 29})

# Index for performance
users.create_index(["email"], unique=True)

# Launch Studio UI
db.studio(port=5000)

For AI Agents

If you're an AI agent helping users with VibeDB, use these skills:

• /vibedb-quickstart - Start here: basic CRUD, queries, common operations
• /vibedb-indexing - Performance: create indexes, auto-suggestions, optimization
• /vibedb-patterns - Production patterns: caching, sessions, job queues, etc.

Skills are in skills/ folder with progressive disclosure (SKILL.md → reference.md → examples.md).

Features

• Zero Config: Works immediately after install
• Document Freedom: Store JSON without schemas (add validation later)
• Dual Query Syntax: MongoDB-style dicts OR Pythonic Q builder
• Auto-Index Hints: Suggests indexes based on slow queries
• Studio UI: Web-based database explorer and query playground

Examples

Complete working examples in examples/:

• quickstart.py - Todo app in 10 lines
• blog_app.py - Blog with posts, comments, and full-text search
• ecommerce.py - Products, orders, and inventory tracking

Documentation

• API Reference: See skills/vibedb-quickstart/reference.md
• Usage Examples: See skills/vibedb-quickstart/examples.md
• Production Patterns: See skills/vibedb-patterns/SKILL.md
• Performance Guide: See skills/vibedb-indexing/SKILL.md

Philosophy

Built for vibe coders - developers who want rapid iteration:

• Start schema-less, validate later
• Auto-suggest but don't force
• Great errors with helpful hints
• Studio UI for visual debugging
