leveldb
Rust bindings for LevelDB, providing almost-complete access to the embedded key-value storage engine.
What is leveldb?
Rust leveldb bindings is a Rust library that provides bindings to the LevelDB embedded key-value storage engine. It allows Rust developers to integrate LevelDB's persistent storage capabilities into their applications with a safe and idiomatic Rust API. The library handles database operations like opening databases, reading, writing, and iterating over key-value pairs.
Rust developers who need embedded, persistent key-value storage in their applications, particularly those working on systems programming, data-intensive tools, or projects requiring local storage without a full database server.
Developers choose these bindings because they offer a nearly complete and safe interface to LevelDB from Rust, with compatibility across stable Rust versions. It provides a straightforward way to leverage LevelDB's performance and reliability without leaving the Rust ecosystem.
Overview
This project provides Rust bindings for LevelDB, enabling Rust developers to use the embedded key-value storage engine directly from their Rust applications. It offers a safe and idiomatic Rust interface to LevelDB's functionality, making it accessible for systems programming and data storage needs.
Key Features
- Complete Bindings — Almost-complete coverage of LevelDB's C++ API, allowing full utilization of its features.
- Idiomatic Rust API — Provides a Rust-friendly interface with proper error handling and type safety.
- Database Operations — Supports opening databases, putting and getting key-value pairs, and iterating over entries.
- Configurable Options — Allows customization through options like
create_if_missing, write options, and read options. - Iterator Support — Includes iterators for traversing database entries, though with some limitations on arbitrary start/end points.
Philosophy
The bindings aim to provide a nearly complete and safe Rust interface to LevelDB, prioritizing stability and compatibility with stable Rust releases while maintaining close alignment with the original C++ API.
