Kiwi

Build Status

A simple unified Crystal interface for key-value stores.

Installation

Add this to your application's shard.yml:

dependencies:
  kiwi:
    github: crystal-community/kiwi
    version: ~> 0.1.0

Usage

All the stores have the same simple interface defined by Kiwi::Store:

  • set(key : String, value : String) : String
  • get(key : String) : String|Nil
  • delete(key : String) : String|Nil
  • clear
  • []=(key : String, value) : String - alias for set
  • [](key : String) : String - alias for get

MemoryStore

require "kiwi/memory_store"

store = Kiwi::MemoryStore.new

store.set("key", "value")
store.get("key")  # => "value"
store.delete("key")
store.clear

# Or your can use Hash-like methods:
store["key"] = "new value"
store["key"]  # => "new "value"

FileStore

require "kiwi/file_store"

store = Kiwi::FileStore("/tmp/kiwi")

RedisStore

RedisStore requires you to have redis shard.

require "redis"
require "kiwi/redis_store"

store = Kiwi::RedisStore(Redis.new)

LevelDBStore

LevelDBStore requires you to have levelDB shard.

require "leveldb"
require "kiwi/leveldb_store"

leveldb = LevelDB::DB.new("./db")
store = Kiwi::LevelDBStore(leveldb)

MemcachedStore

MemcachedStore requires you to have memcached shard.

require "memcached"
require "kiwi/memcached_store"

store = Kiwi::MemcachedStore.new(Memcached::Client.new)

Benchmark

The following table shows operations per second for every particular store on my machine.

set get get(empty) delete
MemoryStore 3056000 4166000 4074000 10473000
LevelDBStore 120000 193000 253000 37000
RedisStore 41000 42000 42000 21000
MemcachedStore 38000 41000 40000 21000
FileStore 27000 66000 73000 8000

Data information:

  • Key size: 5-100 bytes.
  • Value size: 10-1000 bytes.
  • Number of items: 100,000

Environment information:

  • CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3632QM CPU @ 2.20GHz
  • File System: ext4, SSD
  • RAM: DDR3, 1600 MHz
  • Operating system: 3.16.0-4-amd64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Results can vary on different systems depending on hardware(CPU, RAM, HDD/SSD) and software(OS, file system, etc).

Running benchmark

make benchmark

Tests

Run specs for all stores:

make test

Run spec for a particular store:

crystal spec ./spec/kiwi/file_store_spec.cr
