Gun-Cassandra

CQL/Cassandra native persistence layer for gun

GUN is a realtime, distributed, offline-first, graph database engine.

THIS IS EXPERIMENTAL WORK IN PROGRESS! USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!

Comments and PR/Contributions are super welcome!


Installation

npm install gun-cassandra

Usage

var Gun = require('gun');
require('gun-cassandra');
 
var gun = Gun({
  file: false // turn off pesky file.js data.json default
  , db: {
    contactPoints: ['127.0.0.1'], 
    keyspace: 'gun'
  }
});

Fluffy's Test

The following script runs Fluffy's test successfully. Speed is ridicolously low when initializing keyspace and table.

GUN -> CQL <- GUN

var cat = {name: "Fluffy", species: "kitty"};
var mark = {boss: cat};
cat.slave = mark;
gun.get('mark').put(mark);
cqlsh> SELECT * FROM gun_db.gun_data;

 soul                 | field   | relation             | state         | value
----------------------+---------+----------------------+---------------+--------
 jccj3klhbH4laGweIBiP |    name |                      | 1515798170328 | Fluffy
                 mark |    boss | jccj3klhbH4laGweIBiP | 1515798170328 |       
 jccj3klhbH4laGweIBiP |   slave |                 mark | 1515798170328 |       
 jccj3klhbH4laGweIBiP | species |                      | 1515798170328 |  kitty

gun.get('mark').get('boss').get('name').val(function(data, key){
  // `val` grabs the data once, no subscriptions.
  console.log("Mark's boss is", data);
});
Output:
Mark's boss is Fluffy

CQL <- GUN

cqlsh> INSERT INTO gun_db.gun_data JSON '{ "soul": "jcdkfchqWeSXR7dzFJdU", "field": "gender", "state": 1515860865492, "relation": "", "value": "male"}';
gun.get('mark').get('boss').get('gender').val(function(data, key){
   console.log("Mark's boss gender is", data);
   process.exit(0);
});
Output:
Mark's boss gender is male
