# Sterling Database (Port to .NET Core 2.0)

This is a port of the [Sterling Open Source NoSQL Database](https://github.com/jeremylikness/sterlingnosql).

Read the related blog post: [.NET Core 20 is Ready and Sterling Proves It!](https://blog.jeremylikness.com/https-blog-jeremylikness-com-net-core-2-0-is-ready-and-sterling-proves-it-41350afd18a9)

> NOTE: Sterling is not currently intended for production use. It was ported to demonstrate [what's new in .NET Core 2.0](https://docs.microsoft.com/dotnet/core/whats-new/) and the increased surface area of the [.NET Standard 2.0 APIs](https://github.com/dotnet/standard/blob/master/docs/versions/netstandard2.0.md). 

The engine uses the following features that did not exist in .NET Core 1.0:

* `BackgroundWorker` to save lists on a separate thread

* `Type` methods including:

  * `IsAssignableFrom`

  * `IsEnum`

* Reflection, including properties and fields

* Binary reader and writer

* Memory stream

## Quickstart (works on any platform)

You must have [.NET Core 2.0](https://github.com/dotnet/core/blob/master/release-notes/download-archive.md) installed.

Clone the repository:

`https://github.com/JeremyLikness/sterling-net-core.git`

Navigate to the test directory:

`cd sterling-net-core/sterling-console-test`

Build the project:

`dotnet build -c Release`

> There is not a NuGet package for the Sterling .NET Core database as of this writing. Instead, the test project has a relative path reference to the `sterling-core` source.

Navigate to the build directory:

`cd bin/Release/netcoreapp2.0/`

Run the test:

`dotnet sterling-console-test.dll`

You're in business!

## USDA Importer

The USDA importer will grab foods from the publicly available USDA nutrition database and import into Sterling. For demo purposes, it will filter just a few nutrient types (protein, carbohydrate, and fat) and import only foods in the "Cereal" group. You can tweak these as needed but the memory driver has not been optimized and runs slow for large data sets.

The importer demonstrates the use of an index to sort by nutrient quantities. This isn't a "true" sort because they are not multiplied by weight values, but generally should approximate the right order.

`cd sterling-net-core/usda-importer`

`dotnet build -c Release`

`dotnet bin/Release/netcoreapp2.0/usda-importer.dll`
