Flinch is an in-memory, real-time document database designed for fast, efficient full-text search and querying. It provides a high-performance search solution that can be seamlessly integrated into various applications. Flinch is lightweight, easy to use, and open-source, allowing users to contribute to its development and customize it to suit their needs.
Note: Insertion performance may be slow due to the time taken for indexing, which is a normal occurrence.
Run 👇it:
cargo add flinch
or add this in your Cargo.toml
flinch = "<YOUR_VERSION>"
These examples demonstrate the capabilities of Flinch as both a library and a query language, showcasing its features for document storage, retrieval, manipulation, and searching.
The first example demonstrates how to use Flinch as a library in your Rust application. It showcases various operations such as adding documents, updating values, retrieving data, performing searches, and more.
Here are the key operations performed in the code:
Creating a Collection: A collection is created with specific options, including index options, search options, view options, range options, and clip options.
Adding Documents: Documents are added to the collection using the put operation. Each document is represented as a JSON object, and it is assigned a unique key.
Real-time Updates: The code demonstrates real-time updates by subscribing to a channel and receiving events for document insertions and removals.
Retrieving Documents: The code shows how to retrieve documents using the get operation. It includes examples of getting a single document, getting multiple documents, and fetching documents based on an index.
Searching: The code demonstrates the search capabilities of Flinch. It shows how to perform a search query and retrieve documents that match the search query. It also showcases a "like" search using wildcard characters.
Views: Flinch supports views, which are predefined filters that can be applied to a collection. The code shows how to fetch documents based on a view configuration.
Dropping a Collection: The code demonstrates how to drop a collection, removing all its documents.
Subscribing to Pub/Sub Events: The code sets up a subscription to receive Pub/Sub events for document insertions and removals. It shows an example of listening to a limited number of events.
```rust async fn library() { // Initialize Flinch with collection options let colopts = CollectionOptions { name: Some(COLLECTION.tostring()), indexopts: vec![format!("name")], searchopts: vec![format!("name")], viewopts: vec![ViewConfig{ prop: "age".tostring(), expected: "18".tostring(), viewname: "ADULT".tostring(), }], rangeopts: vec![format!("age")], clipsopts: vec![format!("name")], }; let database = Database::init(); database.add(colopts).expect("created new collection");
// List available collections
println!("ls Collections {:?}", database.ls());
// Access the Flinch collection instance
let instance = database.using(COLLECTION);
assert!(instance.is_ok());
let instance = instance.unwrap();
let collection = instance.value();
// Subscribe to real-time updates
let (sx, mut rx) = tokio::sync::mpsc::channel(30000);
collection.sub(sx).await.expect("subscribe to channel");
// Insert documents into the collection
let insert = Instant::now();
let record_size = 10_000;
for i in 0..record_size {
collection.put(format!("P_{}",&i), QueryBased::from_str(
serde_json::to_string(
&User {
name: format!("julfikar{}",&i),
age: i,
}
).unwrap().as_str()
).unwrap()).await.unwrap();
}
assert_eq!(collection.len(), record_size as usize);
println!("insert:: {:?}", insert.elapsed());
// Replace a document in the collection
let x = collection.put(format!("P_{}",0), QueryBased::from_str(
serde_json::to_string(
&User {
name: format!("julfikar-replace"),
age: 10000,
}
).unwrap().as_str()
).unwrap()).await; assert!(x.is_ok()); println!("replaced value in {}", x.unwrap());
// Get a single document from the collection
let single = collection.get(&format!("P_0"));
assert!(single.data.is_some());
println!("single:: {:?}", single.time_taken);
// Get multiple documents from the collection
let multi = collection.multi_get(vec![&format!("P_1"), &format!("P_0")]);
assert_ne!(multi.data.len(), 0);
println!("multi:: {:?}", multi.time_taken);
// Get an index from the collection
let gidx = collection.get_index("julfikar100");
assert!(gidx.data.is_some());
println!("index:: {:?} {:?}", gidx.time_taken, gidx.data.unwrap().1.data);
// Perform a search query in the collection
let search = collection.search("Julfikar0");
assert_ne!(search.data.len(), 0);
println!("search index:: {} res {}", search.time_taken, search.data.len());
// Perform a like search query in the collection
let like_search = collection.like_search("Julfikar 101");
assert_ne!(like_search.data.len(), 0);
println!("search:: {} res {}", like_search.time_taken, like_search.data.len());
// Fetch a view from the collection
let view = collection.fetch_view("ADULT");
assert_ne!(view.data.len(), 0);
println!("view:: {} res {}", view.time_taken, view.data.len());
// Drop the collection
collection.drop().await;
assert_eq!(collection.len(), 0, "after::drop");
// Listen to pub/sub events for demonstration (limited to 10 messages)
let mut i = 0;
loop {
let event = rx.recv().await.unwrap();
match event {
PubSubEvent::Data(d) => {
match d {
ActionType::Insert(k, _v) => {
println!("inserted :pub/sub: {}", k);
}
ActionType::Remove(k) => {
println!("removed :: {}", k);
}
};
}
PubSubEvent::Subscribed(_s) => {
}
};
i += 1;
if i == 10 {
break;
}
}
} ```
The second example introduces FLQL (Flinch Query Language), which provides a powerful and concise syntax for interacting with Flinch collections. It demonstrates various FLQL queries and their functionalities.
Here's a breakdown of the FLQL queries showcased in the code:
Creating a Collection: This query creates a new collection with empty options.
Dropping a Collection: This query drops a collection from the database.
Checking Pointer Existence: The query checks if a specific pointer exists within a collection.
Collection Length: This query returns the length (number of documents) in a collection.
Updating or Inserting Documents: The query updates or inserts a document into a collection.
Conditional Update or Insert: This query performs a conditional update or insert based on a specified condition.
Updating or Inserting to a Pointer: The query updates or inserts a document into a pointer within a collection.
Getting Documents: This query retrieves documents from a collection.
Conditional Get: This query performs a conditional get operation based on a specified condition.
Getting Pointer: The query retrieves the value of a pointer from a collection.
Getting View: This query fetches documents based on a view configuration.
Getting Clip: This query fetches documents based on a clip configuration.
Getting Index: The query retrieves documents based on an index.
Getting Range: This query retrieves a range of documents based on specified start and end values.
Searching: This query performs a search query in the collection.
Conditional Search: This query performs a conditional search based on a specified condition.
Deleting Documents: This query deletes documents from a collection.
Conditional Delete: This query performs a conditional delete based on a specified condition.
Deleting Pointer: The query deletes a specific pointer from a collection.
Deleting View: This query deletes a view from a collection.
Deleting Clip: This query deletes a clip from a collection.
```rust async fn queryexample() { // Initialize Flinch with collection options let colopts = CollectionOptions { name: Some(COLLECTION.tostring()), indexopts: vec![format!("name")], searchopts: vec![format!("name")], viewopts: vec![ViewConfig{ prop: "age".tostring(), expected: "18".tostring(), viewname: "ADULT".tostring(), }], rangeopts: vec![format!("age")], clipsopts: vec![format!("name")], }; let options = serdejson::tostring(&col_opts).unwrap(); let planner = Query::new();
// Create a new collection
let res = planner.exec(format!("new({});",options.as_str()).as_str()).await;
println!("new::collection::error {:?}",res.error);
// Insert documents into the collection
let record_size = 2;
for i in 0..record_size {
let v = serde_json::to_string(
&User {
name: format!("julfikar{}",&i),
age: i,
}
).unwrap();
let query = format!("put({}).into('{}');", v, &COLLECTION);
let x = planner.exec(query.as_str()).await;
assert_eq!(x.error, FlinchError::None);
}
// Get documents from the collection
let res = planner.exec(format!("get.when('map(\"name\") == \"julfikar1\"').from('{}');",&COLLECTION).as_str()).await;
println!("{:?}",res);
// Get an index from the collection
let res = planner.exec(format!("get.index('julfikar1').from('{}');",&COLLECTION).as_str()).await;
println!("{:?}",res);
// Perform a search query in the collection
let res = planner.exec(format!("search.query('julfikar 1').from('{}');",&COLLECTION).as_str()).await;
println!("{:?}",res);
} ```
