jasonisnthappy: embeddable document database with acid guarantees in rust

14 points by sohzm

i wanted a db that is like sqlite but it should be a document db, so here i made it

Features (claude summarized):

Pure Rust – single embedded binary, zero unsafe code
ACID + WAL – snapshot-isolated transactions with checksummed write-ahead logging
Aggregation pipeline – match, group, and accumulators for complex queries
Full-text search – dedicated text indexes for natural language queries
Real-time subscriptions – change notifications with callback support
Schema validation – JSON schemas for data integrity
Query builder – filters, sort, limit, and projection
Web UI & REST API – built-in dashboard with real-time metrics
Backup & recovery – point-in-time snapshots with file locking
CLI + multi-language SDKs – command-line tools and language bindings
Lock-free concurrent reads – MVCC, reads never block writes

How does querying work? I see no mention of custom indexes.

is there a way to embed binary data along with a document ala attachments in couchdb?

not rn, the only way right now i to make a base64 string and keep it, but i do understand its very inefficient

i did think about this when i was working on it, ive created an issue to track this: https://github.com/sohzm/jasonisnthappy/issues/2

This is sick, congrats on the launch. It basically fits what I was looking for for a side project recently!
