ROMA is one of the data storing systems for distributed key-value stores.
It is a completely decentralized distributed system that consists of multiple
processes, called nodes, on several machines. It is based on pure P2P architecture
like a distributed hash table, thus it provides high availability and scalability.

ROMA is written in Ruby. However, following choices are available to
access to ROMA.

* Client libraries of Ruby and Java are available.
* ROMA protocol is compatible with memcached text-based one so that
any memcached client libraries allows users to interact with ROMA.

More information is [here](http://roma-kvs.org/ "ROMA").

## Documentation

* Refer to [ROMA documentations](http://roma-kvs.org/ "ROMA")

## Requirements
* Ruby >= 2.1.0

## Installation
### Install ROMA
You can simply install ROMA and dependency libralies by using a `gem` command of Ruby as follows.

```
$ gem install roma
```

### Make routing files

ROMA is required to make the routing files before starting up.
The routing file is stored the routing information of each processes.

```
$ mkroute localhost_10001 localhost_10002 --replication_in_host
```

If succeeded, two new files which named localhost_10001.route and localhost_10002.route created in the current directory.
Refer to [Commands](http://roma-kvs.org/commands.html "Commands") for more detail information about Shell Commands.

### Start up ROMA
Run two processes by using a romad.rb program as follows:

```
$ romad localhost -p 10001 -d --replication_in_host
$ romad localhost -p 10002 -d --replication_in_host
```

Refer to [Shell Commands](http://roma-kvs.org/commands.html#dist-jump-link-shell_commands) for more detail information about Shell Commands.

## Usage
Like memcached, you can connect to ROMA with telnet. Connect to the ROMA process that you ran above.

```
$ telnet localhost 10001
```

You can interact with ROMA in the same way of memcached commands.

```
set foo 0 0 3
bar
STORED
get foo
VALUE foo 0 3
bar
END
```

Refer to [Commands](http://roma-kvs.org/commands.html "Commands") for more detail information about ROMA Commands.

## Contributing

If you would like to contribute, please...

1. Fork and git clone it.
2. Install gems required for development.
3. Make changes in a branch & add unit tests.
4. Run Unit Test
* `bundle exec rake` (if unit test fails, run it again - it's fickle).
* Specify `STORAGE` to test test cases related to storages such as groonga, sqlite3 and dbm.
5. Create a pull request.

Contributions, improvements, comments and suggestions are welcome!
