nedb-party

A library for making nedb multi-process capable.

Basically, it'll check to see if another process has the db locked, if it does, it'll send requests to that process, through rpc, to perform change operations.

Note: Only methods that receive callbacks are supported. It does not yet support event methods .on, etc.

This idea is inspired heavily by substack's level-party npm package.

Installation

npm install --save nedb-party

Example Usage

var Datastore = require('nedb-party')

var options = {filename: __dirname + '/example.db'}

var db1 = new Datastore(options)

// in the same process or not
var db2 = new Datastore(options)

db1.insert({hello: "World"), function(err, newDoc) {
  console.log('inserted doc:', newDoc)
});

db1.insert({hello: "Moon"), function(err, newDoc2) {
  console.log('inserted doc:', newDoc2)
});

nedb-party's Issues

nedb-pary keeps script from closing

Hi. I have a simple script for inserting, modifying, and deleting JSON files to my database, which makes use of this module. I've noticed it causes the script to hang even after everything has been executed. I'm wondering what I should do about this as I don't want to manually close the script with SIGINT every time I use it.
