CurlyMustache

Like ActiveRecord, but uses key-value stores (Memcached, Redis, Tokyo Cabinet, etc) instead of relational databases.

This is experimental and not used in any production environments yet.

github.com/cjbottaro/curly_mustache

Installation

 sudo gem install --source http://gems.github.com cjbottaro-curly_mustache

Features

• Basic ActiveRecord-like CRUD operations (create, destroy, find, save).
• Simple associations.
• Validations (TODO)
• Callbacks (TODO)

Connecting

  CurlyMustache::Base.establish_connection :adapter => :memcache,
                                           :servers => %w[one.example.com:11211 two.example.com:11211],

The memcache adapter uses memcache-client. Whatever other options you pass to establish_connection will be passed to the constructor for it.

Usage

  class User < CurlyMustache::Base
    attribute :name,          :string
    attribute :birthday_on,   :date
    attribute :login_count,   :integer
    attribute :last_login_at, :time
  end

  user = User.create :name => "chris"
  user.id                             # => "676cef021584904876af7c4b3e42afb5"
  user.name                           # => "chris"
  user.birthday_on = "03/11/1980"
  user.save

  user = User.find(user.id)
  puts user.birthday_on               # => "Tue, 11 Mar 1980"
  user.birthday_on.class              # => Date

  user.destroy
  User.find(user.id)                  # => exception CurlyMustache::RecordNotFound
