blazedb

BlazeDB is a simple key value storage system.

It uses a tcp server to communicate with clients with the following available commands:

• set key value
• get key
• update key value
• delete key

There is a client embedded within the blazedb binary but you can also use telnet to communicate with the server:

$ telnet localhost 9876
Trying ::1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
set x 1
success
get x
1

Starting the server

To start the blazedb server simply do

blazedb server -c <path_to_the_config_file>

Configuration

The sample configuration can be found in server/config.template.toml and contains the following:

# Default blazedb configuration

# port = 9876

# Max queue size for the blazedb server commands
# max_queue_size = 100
