README

go-leveldb

go-leveldb is a Go wrapper for LevelDB

Building

You can run make to build this library. It will download and compile leveldb and snappy, then compile go-leveldb.

Alternatively, if you have installed libleveldb-dev on your machine, you can use go build to compile go-leveldb. However, if libleveldb-dev is installed in non-standard folders, you must set CGO_CFLAGS and CGO_LDFLAGS such that cgo knows the location of libleveldb-dev.

Usage

go-leveldb supports most functions of leveldb's C API, except those passing function pointers to the API.

Example code:

import "github.com/ccding/go-leveldb/leveldb"

// creates a database
db, err := leveldb.Open(dir, nil)
// put and get
err = db.Put([]byte("foo"), []byte("bar"), nil)
val, err := db.Get([]byte("foo"), nil) // returns "bar"
// closes the database
db.Close()
// deletes the database directory
err = leveldb.DestroyDB(dir, nil)
