Getting Started

About

peanuts is a JSON based database system using file-name approach to store user data with strict schema checking and CLI flexibility.

It uses simple SQL like syntax for querying and inserting data along-side a expressive CLI with helpful error messages in case you make a mistake while using the commands.

How is the data stored?

The project comes with a data folder that stores all the data. The databases sub-directory stores all the database related content.

For each database, a new directory is created under data/databases with this structure

└── data/databases
    └── database_name # name of the database
        ├── data # this is where data is stored
        │   └── schema_name # schema related to the item
        │       └── entry_id.pnuts.json  # saved data with the unique ID
        └── schemas # all schema structure are saved under this
            └── schema_name.pnuts.json # json of a particular schema
