# Rust leveldb bindings

Incomplete bindings for leveldb for Rust.

## Prerequisites

`snappy` and `leveldb` need to be installed. On Ubuntu, I recommend.

```sh
sudo apt-get install libleveldb-dev libsnappy-dev
```

## Usage

If your project is using [Cargo](http://crates.io), drop the following lines in your `Cargo.toml`:

```text
[dependencies]

leveldb = "*"
```

## Development

Make sure you have all prerequisites installed. Run

```sh
$ cargo build
```

for building and

```sh
$ cargo test
```

to run the test suite.

## Examples

```{.rust}
#[allow(unstable)]

extern crate leveldb;

use std::fs::TempDir;
use leveldb::database::Database;
use leveldb::iterator::Iterable;
use leveldb::options::{Options,WriteOptions,ReadOptions};

fn main() {
  let tempdir = TempDir::new("demo").unwrap();
  let path = tempdir.path();
  
  let mut options = Options::new();
  options.create_if_missing = true;
  let mut database = match Database::open(path, options) {
      Ok(db) => { db },
      Err(e) => { panic!("failed to open database: {:?}", e) }
  };
  
  let write_opts = WriteOptions::new();
  match database.put(write_opts, 1, &[1]) {
      Ok(_) => { () },
      Err(e) => { panic!("failed to write to database: {:?}", e) }
  };
  
  let read_opts = ReadOptions::new();
  let res = database.get(read_opts,
                         1);
  match res {
    Ok(data) => {
      assert!(data.is_some());
      assert_eq!(data, Some(vec![1]));
    }
    Err(e) => { panic!("failed reading data: {:?}", e) }
  }
  
  let read_opts = ReadOptions::new();
  let mut iter = database.iter(read_opts);
  let entry = iter.next();
  assert_eq!(
    entry,
    Some((1, vec![1]))
  );
}
```

## Open issues

* Filter policies are missing
* Iterators with arbirary start and end points are unsupported
