# Skytable client [![Crates.io](https://img.shields.io/crates/v/skytable?style=flat-square)](https://crates.io/crates/skytable) [![docs.rs](https://img.shields.io/docsrs/skytable?style=flat-square)](https://docs.rs/skytable) [![GitHub release (latest SemVer including pre-releases)](https://img.shields.io/github/v/release/skytable/client-rust?include_prereleases&style=flat-square)](https://github.com/skytable/client-rust/releases)

## Introduction

This library is the official client for the free and open-source NoSQL database
[Skytable](https://github.com/skytable/skytable). First, go ahead and install Skytable by
following the instructions [here](https://docs.skytable.io/getting-started). This library supports
all Skytable versions that work with the [Skyhash 1.0 Protocol](https://docs.skytable.io/protocol/skyhash).
This version of the library was tested with the latest Skytable release
(release [0.6](https://github.com/skytable/skytable/releases/v0.6.0)).

## Using this library

This library only ships with the bare minimum that is required for interacting with Skytable. Once you have
Skytable installed and running, you're ready to follow this guide!

We'll start by creating a new binary application and then running actions. Create a new binary application
by running:

```shell
cargo new skyapp
```

**Tip**: You can see a full list of the available actions [here](https://docs.skytable.io/actions-overview).

First add this to your `Cargo.toml` file:

```toml
skytable = "0.3.0"
```

Now open up your `src/main.rs` file and establish a connection to the server while also adding some
imports:

```rust
use skytable::{Connection, Query, Response, Element};
fn main() -> std::io::Result<()> {
    let mut con = Connection::new("127.0.0.1", 2003)?;
    Ok(())
}
```

Now let's run a `Query`! Change the previous code block to:

```rust
use skytable::{Connection, Query, Response, Element};
fn main() -> std::io::Result<()> {
    let mut con = Connection::new("127.0.0.1", 2003)?;
    let query = Query::from("heya");
    let res = con.run_simple_query(&query)?;
    assert_eq!(res, Response::Item(Element::String("HEY!".to_owned())));
    Ok(())
}
```

Way to go &mdash; you're all set! Now go ahead and run more advanced queries!

## Async API

If you need to use an `async` API, just change your import to:

```toml
skytable = { version = "0.3.0", features=["async"], default-features= false }
```

You can now establish a connection by using `skytable::AsyncConnection::new()`, adding `.await`s wherever
necessary. Do note that you'll the [Tokio runtime](https://tokio.rs).

## Using both `sync` and `async` APIs

With this client driver, it is possible to use both sync and `async` APIs **at the same time**. To do
this, simply change your import to:

```toml
skytable = { version="0.3.0", features=["sync", "async"] }
```

## MSRV

The MSRV for this crate is Rust 1.51, however, **older rust versions are supported** by adding the
following backward compatibility flag in the features declaration for the dependency:
`compat-const-gen`
