goki

A toy non-persistent(in-memory) Key-Value data store. Redis is the inspiration. I'll try to model this repo as close to redis as possible.

Allowed Data Types

• Strings
• Integer
• Float (although redis doesn't really support, I've added it anyway)

Main Components

• Server - is a webserver that you can start with the command goki-server start 8080
• Client - is a REPL client that connects to the goki-server. Usage: goki-client connect 8080

Feature Tracker

• Make Client REPL
• Client Connects with server
• Fixed Request and Response types
• Print the results and errors in a better format on client REPL
• Check Mutex locking and unlocking behaviour for the methods that interact with the store
• Improve Logging format on server. Make it richer with the essential details alone
• Add helper for similar commands? Provide suggestions like Did you mean? set get...
• Show all commands supported helper
• Good to have : Instead of using JSON over http, try and use some other lighter format for requests and response, like bencode
• Commands tracker: persist for certain keys, a new data structure lists - l/r-push & l\r-pop
• Add tests (for both client and server)

Supported Client Commands

• set
• get
• del
• exists
• expire
• ttl
• incr
• decr

Follow these steps to contribute or set up the dev env

• fork/clone this repo
• make you sure you have go installed and your GOPATH setup since we use go modules.
• to run the server you can use the command go run server/main.go start 9000
• to run the client you can use the command go run client/main.go connect 9000
• Make your changes! :)

Also, it'll be great if you could help me set up realize or any other golang task runners for this!

Any feedback, suggestions and criticism's are very much welcome! :)

More information will be updated here soon.
