start 0.4.0

# IN DEVELOPMENT DON'T USE IN PRODUCTION (wait stabilization)


* database in development and might rapidly change syntax

# StartDB


A lightweight, in-memory/embedded (single-file) ACID-compliant database designed for simplicity and flexibility.

# Features


- Embedded & In-Memory: Data lives in memory or a single file—ideal for CLI tools, bots, or lightweight services.
- Simple API ✨.
- ACID Transactions: Mongo-inspired session-based transactions.
- Powerful Querying: Supports filter, limit, skip (aggregations and joins coming soon).
- Serde Support: Transparent serialization and deserialization using serde.
- Experimental SQL dialect planned 🧪.

# Installation


Add this to your `Cargo.toml`:
```toml
[dependencies]
start = "0.2.0"
```

# Status


Early stage project — the API is experimental and subject to change.

# Example

```rust
use serde::{Deserialize, Serialize};
use start::db::query::filtering::{Filter, Value};

type HandleResult<T> = Result<T, Box<dyn std::error::Error>>;

#[derive(Serialize, Deserialize, Debug)]

struct Agent {
    name: String,
    r#type: String,
    score: i32,
}

fn main() -> HandleResult<()> {
    let db = start::db_in_memory()?;
    let session = db.get_session();

    session.start_transaction()?;
    
    session.insert("agents", 
        &Agent {name: "Cloude".to_string(), r#type: "AI".to_string(), score: 88})?;
    session.insert("agents",
        &Agent {name: "ChatGPT".to_string(), r#type: "AI".to_string(), score: 90})?;
    session.insert("agents",
        &Agent {name: "Gemini".to_string(), r#type: "AI".to_string(), score: 85})?;

    let result: Vec<Agent> = session.find()
        .filter(Filter::Gt("score".into(), Value::Integer(85)))
        .from("agents")?;
    for entry in result {
        println!("Entry: {:?}", entry);
    }

    // Entry: Agent { name: "Cloude", type: "AI", score: 88 }
    // Entry: Agent { name: "ChatGPT", type: "AI", score: 90 }
    session.commit_transaction()?;
    Ok(())
}
