# OCaml-lmdb [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/Drup/ocaml-lmdb.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/Drup/ocaml-lmdb) [![docs](https://img.shields.io/badge/doc-online-blue.svg)][doc]

The [LMDB][] database is a fast in-file database that supports ACID transactions.

These bindings expose a typesafe yet low-overhead API. Both transactions and cursors are available. 

Database implementations are specialized both by keys and values.

Two module are predefined: `Lmdb.Db` (string keys and string values) and `Lmdb.IntDb` (int keys and string values). 

New implementation (which can use special LMDB features such as multi-values) can be added via a functorial interface.

Please consult the [documentation][doc] and a [simple example](tests/simple_db.ml).

```ocaml

let open Lmdb in

let env = Env.(create Rw ~flags:Flags.no_subdir ~max_maps:1) "mydb" in

let map = Map.create Nodup ~key:Conv.string ~value:Conv.string

	    ~name:"Camelidae" env in

Map.add map "Bactrian camel" "Elegant and beautiful animal with two humps."

```
