CubEcto 🚀

ESL Internal Hackathon 2021

Team Erlingers: Raúl Chouza & Carlo Gilmar

Create an Ecto adapter for the Cub DB library.

Inspiration 💖

Although the BEAm ecosystem have multiple databases as ETS, DETS, or Mnesia, there are few options for sql-like storage engines.

Our idea is create an Ecto Adapter for Cub DB, a embedded key-value database written in Elixir.

We considered create an adapter for other options, but we choosed Cub DB because it's relative newest in the ecosystem and it looks like a great opportunity to contribute.

Other projects that we found to take inspiration and guidance were:

Personal Goals ⚽️

Contribute to grow the tools for Cub DB
Learn about Ecto Adapters
Search similar projects and explore them to see how they are implementing their adapters

Scope 🏹

Leverage Ecto.Repo for basic CRUD calls.
Leverage Ecto.Query for composing more complex calls.

Installation

Installation through github:

def deps do
  [
    {:cub_ecto, git: "git@github.com:chouzar/cubecto.git", branch: "main"}
  ]
end

Achievements 🎉

Implement Ecto.Adapter
Create our own Repo and start the Cube DB process
Implement Ecto.Adapter.Schema
Autogenerate UUIDS for inserts
Insert a schema
Delete a schema
Implement Ecto.Adapter.Queryable

Nexts Steps 👣

We focused on implement the Ecto.Adapter and be able to insert a schema:

Implement: insert all, update
Implement the execute/5 function from Ecto.Adapter.Queryable to make searches
Add tests, clean the code and add refactors
