bison-db 0.7.0

An embedded, document-oriented database for Rust - schemaless documents, secondary indexes, and ACID single-file storage, with zero network and zero external services.

//! Positional file I/O, abstracted across platforms.
//!
//! The store reads record bodies at arbitrary offsets while appending new
//! records at the tail. Positional (`pread`/`pwrite`-style) access keeps reads
//! on a shared `&File` free of a mutable seek cursor, which is what lets
//! [`Db::get`](crate::Db::get) take `&self`. Each platform exposes the primitive
//! under a different name, so this module presents one `*_exact_at` API over
//! both. Targets that are neither Unix nor Windows have no positional file
//! primitive in `std`; rather than degrade silently, the crate refuses to build
//! its file store there.
