[Work in progress/pre-alpha/dragons, etc.] Just got transparent persistence working on WhatDB? – the tiny, in-memory, write-on-update database I’m building for simple server-side data in Site.js.
If you want to poke around, here it is:
https://github.com/small-tech/whatdb
Next: get full test coverage before implementing the querying mechanism :) Quite enjoying this. (But have to keep reminding myself to do the minimum I need for Small Web as there are other things to build too.)
@aral I added your lib in my repo: https://github.com/croqaz/Stones
BTW you can see other alternatives, I think neDB is very similar.
@croqaz Neat, thanks. Looked at quite a number, including NeDB before starting on this. If anything, WhatDB is going to most likely end up being the most lightweight. It’s a server-side database for a system (Small Web) that doesn’t want servers to be privileged nodes (or, more accurately, to be unprivileged nodes) and encourages data to be kept on the client or e2e-encrypted whenever possible so it is only for small things / org sites.
