Current version: `v3.2.1`.
Riak KV version: 2.0 or higher, the latest version of Riak KV is always recommended.

# What is goriak?

goriak is a wrapper around [riak-go-client](https://github.com/basho/riak-go-client) (version `1.9.0` or newer is required) to make it easier and more friendly for developers to use Riak KV.

* [Documentation](https://godoc.org/gopkg.in/zegl/goriak.v3)

# Installation

As a Go module (requires Go 1.11 or later):

```bash
go get github.com/zegl/goriak/[email protected]
```

As a Go package:

```bash
go get -u gopkg.in/zegl/goriak.v3
```

# Maps (Riak Data Types)

The main feature of goriak is that goriak automatically can marshal/unmarshal your Go types into [Riak data types](http://docs.basho.com/riak/kv/2.1.4/developing/data-types/).

## Set (Riak Data Types)

In the example below `Name` will be saved as a register, and `Aliases` will be a set.

```go
type User struct {
Name string
Aliases []string
}

user := User {
Name: "Foo",
Alises: []string{"Foo", "Bar"},
}

goriak.Bucket("bucket-name", "bucket-type").Set(user).Key("key").Run(c)
```

### Tags

Struct tags can be used to change the name of the item, or to ignore it.

```go
type User struct {
Name string `goriak:"-"` // Ignore field
Aliases []string `goriak:"aliases"` // Save as "aliases" in Riak KV
}
```

## Get (Riak Data Types)

The map can later be retreived as a whole:

```go
var res User
goriak.Bucket("bucket-name", "bucket-type").Get("key", &res).Run(c)
```

## Supported Go types

| Go Type | Riak Type |
|-------------|-----------|
| `struct` | map |
| `string` | register |
| `[n]byte` | register |
| `[]byte` | register |
| `[]slice` | set |
| `[]slice` | set |
| `[][]byte` | set |
| `map` | map |
| `time.Time` | register |
| int [1] | register |

1: All signed and unsigned integer types are supported.

### Golang map types

Supported key types: all integer types, `string`.
Supported value types: `string`, `[]byte`.

## Helper types

Some actions are more complicated then necessary with the use of the default Go types and `MapOperations`.

This is why goriak contains the types `Counter`, `Set`, `Flag` and `Register`. All of these types will help you performing actions such as incrementing a value, or adding/removing items.

### Counters

Riak Counters is supported with the special `goriak.Counter` type.

Example:

```go
type Article struct {
Title string
Views *goriak.Counter
}

// Get our object
var article Article
goriak.Bucket("articles", "map").Get("1-hello-world", &article).Run(con)

// Increase views by 1
err := article.Views.Increase(1).Exec(con)

// check err
```

`Counter.Exec(con)` will make a lightweight request to Riak, and the counter is the only object that will be updated.

You can also save the changes to your counter with `SetMap()`, this is useful if you want to change multiple counters at the same time.

Check [godoc](https://godoc.org/github.com/zegl/goriak) for more information.

### Sets

You can chose to use `goriak.Set` to help you with Set related actions, such as adding and removing items. `goriak.Set` also has support for sending incremental actions to Riak so that you don't have to build that functionality yourself.

Example:

```go
type Article struct {
Title string
Tags *goriak.Set
}

// Get our object
var article Article
goriak.Bucket("articles", "map").Get("1-hello-world", &article).Run(con)

// Add the tag "animals"
err := article.Tags.AddString("animals").Exec(con)

// check err
```

Check [godoc](https://godoc.org/github.com/zegl/goriak#Set) for more information.

# Values

Values can be automatically JSON Marshalled/Unmarshalled by using `SetJSON()` and `GetJSON()`.
There is also `SetRaw()` and `GetRaw()` that works directly on `[]byte`s.

## JSON

```go
// Set object
goriak.Bucket("bucket-name", "bucket-type").SetJSON(obj).Key("key").Run(con)

// Get object
goriak.Bucket("bucket-name", "bucket-type").GetJSON("key", &obj).Run(con)
```

## MapOperation

There is a time in everyones life where you need to perform raw MapOperations on your Riak Data Values.

Some operations, such as `RemoveFromSet` requires a Context to perform the operation.
A Context can be retreived from `Get` by setting a special context type.

```go
type ourType struct {
Aliases []string

// The context from Riak will be added if the tag goriakcontext is provided
Context []byte `goriak:"goriakcontext"`
}

// ... GetMap()

// Works with MapOperation from github.com/basho/riak-go-client
operation := goriak.NewMapOperation()
operation.AddToSet("Aliases", []byte("Baz"))

goriak.MapOperation("bucket-name", "bucket-type", "key", operation, val.Context)
```

# Secondary Indexes

You can set secondary indexes automatically with `SetJSON()` by using struct tags.

Strings and all signed integer types are supported. Both as-is and in slices.

```go
type User struct {
Name string `goriakindex:"nameindex_bin"`
Aliases []string
}
```

Indexes can also be used in slices. If you are using a slice every value in the slice will be added to the index.

```go
type User struct {
Aliases []string `goriakindex:"aliasesindex_bin"`
}
```

When saved the next time the index will be updated.

## KeysInIndex

Keys in a particular index can be retreived with `KeysInIndex`.

```go
callback := func(item goriak.SecondaryIndexQueryResult) {
// use item
}

goriak.Bucket("bucket-name", "bucket-type").
KeysInIndex("nameindex_bin", "Value", callback).
Run(con)
```

## AddToIndex

An alternative way of setting Secondary Indexes is by using `AddToIndex()`.

```go
goriak.Bucket("bucket-name", "bucket-type").
SetRaw(data).
AddToIndex("indexname_bin", "value").
Run(con)
```
