| | = tdb - Trivial Database bindings for Ruby
TDB is much like other DBM implementations, except it allows concurrent
writer processes. TDB was initially developed for Samba, but is used by
other projects as well. These Ruby bindings allow Ruby apps to read and
write to the same databases used by Samba!
== Features
* Concurrent reader and writer processes may safely operate on the
same file.
* Releases the GVL for slow disk operations under Ruby 1.9
* Includes several {hash functions}[link:Hash_Functions.html]
not included by upstream TDB.
== Install
The original tdb library from the {main site}[http://tdb.samba.org/] is
required. Debian users can just <code>apt-get install tdb-dev</code>.
The library consists of a C extension so you'll need a C compiler
and Ruby development libraries/headers.
You may download the tarball from our
{download site}[http://bogomips.org/ruby-tdb/files/] and run setup.rb after
unpacking it:
http://bogomips.org/ruby-tdb/files/
You may also install it via RubyGems on RubyGems.org:
gem install tdb
You can get the latest source via git from the following locations
(these versions may not be stable):
git://git.bogomips.org/ruby-tdb.git
git://repo.or.cz/ruby-tdb.git (mirror)
You may browse the code from the web and download the latest snapshot
tarballs here:
* http://git.bogomips.org/cgit/ruby-tdb.git (cgit)
* http://repo.or.cz/w/ruby-tdb.git (gitweb)
See the HACKING guide on how to contribute and build prerelease gems
from git.
== Contact
All feedback (bug reports, user/development dicussion, patches, pull
requests) go to the {mailing list}[mailto:ruby.tdb@librelist.org].
