Datahike Redis Backend

The goal of this backend is to support Redis.

Configuration

Please read the Datahike configuration docs on how to configure your backend. Details about the backend configuration can be found in konserve-redis.A sample configuration is create-database, connect and delete-database:

{:store {:backend :redis
         :uri "redis://localhost:9475"}}

This same configuration can be achieved by setting one environment variable for the redis backend and one environment variable for the configuration of the redis backend:

DATAHIKE_STORE_BACKEND=redis
DATAHIKE_STORE_CONFIG='{:uri "redis://localhost:9475"}'

Usage

Add to your Leiningen or Boot dependencies:

Now require the Datahike API and the datahike-redis namespace in your editor or REPL using the keyword :redis. If you want to use other backends than S3 please refer to the official Datahike docs.

Run Datahike in your REPL

  (ns project.core
    (:require [datahike.api :as d]
              [datahike-redis.core]))

  (def cfg {:store {:backend :redis
                    :uri "redis://localhost:9475"}})

  ;; Create a database at this place, by default configuration we have a strict
  ;; schema validation and keep historical data
  (d/create-database cfg)

  (def conn (d/connect cfg))

  ;; The first transaction will be the schema we are using:
  (d/transact conn [{:db/ident :name
                     :db/valueType :db.type/string
                     :db/cardinality :db.cardinality/one }
                    {:db/ident :age
                     :db/valueType :db.type/long
                     :db/cardinality :db.cardinality/one }])

  ;; Let's add some data and wait for the transaction
  (d/transact conn [{:name  "Alice", :age   20 }
                    {:name  "Bob", :age   30 }
                    {:name  "Charlie", :age   40 }
                    {:age 15 }])

  ;; Search the data
  (d/q '[:find ?e ?n ?a
         :where
         [?e :name ?n]
         [?e :age ?a]]
    @conn)
  ;; => #{[3 "Alice" 20] [4 "Bob" 30] [5 "Charlie" 40]}

  ;; Clean up the database if it is not needed any more
  (d/delete-database cfg)
