Gaga

Gaga is a Git-backed key/value store written in Ruby. Built with Grit, it supports SET, GET, KEYS, and DELETE operations. And since it's Git, we can easily enhance it to include other awesome Git features such as branches, diffs, reverting, and more!

Usage


@gaga = Gaga.new(:repo => File.expand_path('..', __FILE__))

# SET
@gaga['lady'] = "gaga"

# GET
@gaga['lady'] #=> "gaga"

# KEYS
@gaga.keys  #=> ['lady']

# DELETE
@gaga.delete('lady') #=> 'gaga'

# Remove all items from the store
@gaga.clear

Branches

You can always store key/values in separate branches. Just specify the branch option parameter:

@gaga = Gaga.new(:repo => path_to_repo, :branch => 'config')

Though not recommended, Gaga can store the identical key in different branches.

Logs

Gaga keeps a history of key/value saves.

@gaga.log('key')

Returns an array of commit messages along with meta data about each key/value save.

[
 {"message"=>"all clear","committer"=>{"name"=>"Matt Sears", "email"=>"[email protected]"}, "committed_date"=>"2011-09-05..."},
