Suckit

Suck up a data stream and store it in LevelDB.

Overview

Suckit exposes LevelDB (via level-store) over HTTP. It's really that simple.

Super Quickstart

In one terminal:

➜  suckit git:(master) mkdir data
➜  suckit git:(master) suckit 3000 ./data
["2013-05-16T02:53:33.537Z","INFO","started",{"session":"1368672813532-41998","dataPath":"/Users/conrad/work/seriousbusiness/suckit/data","port":3000}]
["2013-05-16T02:53:59.619Z","INFO","request",{"session":"1368672813532-41998","request":"1368672839619-66909","method":"POST","url":"/my-bucket/my-file"}]
["2013-05-16T02:53:59.622Z","INFO","opening bucket",{"session":"1368672813532-41998","name":"my-bucket"}]
