fsds - File System as a Data Store

Notice

This project is under development. Your welcome to use it but it is NOT complete and the API is NOT stable.

Description

File System as a Data Store. The goal of this gem is to make using your file system, or other data storage that can work like a file system, for document storage in a friendly way. This gem was tested & documented from the ground up. To begin with, I intend to support the local file systems as well as Amazon S3, interchangeably.

Examples

  # Touching on directories & text files...
  dir = FSDS.mkdir '/tmp/testing_deleteme'
  f = FSDS.touch "#{dir}/deleteme"
  f << "Hello"
  f.read                      #=> "Hello"
  f << " world"
  f.writeln 'another line'
  f.writeln 'more stuff'
  f.read                      #=> "Hello world\nanother line\nmore stuff\n"
  f.readln 0                  #=> "Hello world"
  f.readln 0..1               #=> ["Hello world", "another line"]
  dir.destroy!
  dir.exists?                 #=> false

Note on Patches/Pull Requests

• Fork the project.
• Make your feature addition or bug fix.
• Add tests for it. This is important so I don’t break it in a future version unintentionally.
• Commit, do not mess with rakefile, version, or history. (if you want to have your own version, that is fine but

   bump version in a commit by itself I can ignore when I pull)
  

• Send me a pull request. Bonus points for topic branches.
