Terrabase - The new in-memory database

Terrabase is a new in-memory database that aims to fill the gap between key/value stores, document stores and columnar stores, by providing the best of three worlds - simplicity, flexibility and querying.

Right now, Terrabase is a complete work in progress and is under rapid development, but, you can still have fun with it!

Getting started

For now the only way to use terrabase is by building it from source. I will be adding instructions on the same soon.

Status

Terrabase, at this moment, can only parse arguments in REPL mode and report errors. This is what you can do:

$./terrabase
Terrabase | Version 0.1.0
Copyright (c) 2020 Sayan Nandan
terrabase> set sayan 17
SET(
    KeyValue(
        "sayan",
        "17",
    ),
)
terrabase> get sayan
GET(
    "sayan",
)
terrabase> exit
Goodbye!
$

More functionality to follow soon!

Contributing

YES - I need you! This is an open-source project and it relies on contributions from hackers across the globe. Again, I will be adding contributing instructions in a while.
