#About

ueberDB is a abstraction layer for databases. It turns every database into a simple key value store, at the moment we only support mysql and sqlite. ueberDB uses a smart cache and buffer algorithm to make databases faster. Reads are cached and writes are done in a bulk. The bulk writing reduces the overhead of a database transaction.

#Install

`npm install ueberDB`

#Example


var ueberDB = require("ueberDB");

//mysql
var db = new ueberDB.database("mysql", {"user":"root", host: "localhost", "password":"", database: "store"});
//sqlite in-memory
//var db = new ueberDB.database("sqlite");
//sqlite in file
//var db = new ueberDB.database("sqlite", {filename:"var/sqlite3.db"});
//sqlite in file with a write interval of a half second
//var db = new ueberDB.database("sqlite", {filename:"var/sqlite3.db"}, {writeInterval: 500});

//initialize the database
db.init(function (err)
{
if(err)
{
console.error(err);
process.exit(1);
}

//set a object as a value
//can be done without a callback, cause the value is immediately in the buffer
db.set("valueA", {a:1,b:2});

//get the object
db.get("valueA", function(err, value){
console.log(value);

db.close(function(){
process.exit(0);
});
});
});

#How to add support for another database
Look at sqlite_db.js and mysql_db.js, your module have to provide the same functions. Call it DATABASENAME_db.js and reimplement the functions for your database. If you think it works, test it with `node benchmark.js DATABASENAME`. Benchmark.js is benchmark and test at the same time. It tries to set 100000 values. You can pipe stderr to a file and will create a csv with benchmark results.
