Provides a Sequel style ORM layer for YAML::Store. Yequel supports the Sequel syntax with a subset of commands to access YAML::Store tables. Its target audience is application developers who require light weight alternative to SQL databases.
Yequel provides a small subset of Sequel commands with a goal of allowing for an exchange of the sqlite3 database with YAML::Store.
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'yequel'And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install yequel
Yequel can be used as alternative for Sequel in Ruby frameworks like Sinatra. The Yequel was tested to replace a multi-table implementation that had been built with Sequel and the Sqlite database.
This project depends YAML::Store files to act as relational tables. There will be one YAML::Store file for each table. The key requirement is that there is a database sub-directory in your target application environment:
$ mkdir /db
In order to test the gem, refer to the file called '/test/test_helpers.rb' and select a set of commands to test. Here is a sample set of commands:
Artist = Yequel::Model.new('test')
Artist.insert(:id=>1, :name=>"YJ")
Artist.insert(:id=>2, :name=>"AS")
Artist.insert(:id=>3, :name=>"AS")
Artist[1]
The Yequel commands include a subset of the common commands that are used in an Sequel implementation.
