README

bucketr

bucketrest is a lightweight RESTful API service that exposes contained key-value databases to the public. As of now, bucketr supports the following databases:

• MongoDB
• etcd
• BoltDB (bbolt)
• Redis

It's still in early development, so database options are limited. DBs aren't particularly listed in order of priority, but etcd is the most demanded.

Aims

• Make getting/setting values the exact same API over all DBs to allow client cross-compatibility
• Make using the API feel like you're using your own DB; endpoints shouldn't include usernames, simply names of contained buckets, completely separate from other users

Installation

Assuming that you've correctly configured Go and have a MongoDB server listening on :27017, run

you@server:~$ go install github.com/fjah/bucketr

then simply execute the binary with

you@server:~$ MONGO_URI=mongodb://localhost:27017 bucketr
db: open
http: ready to listen on :8080

Note that Go and MongoDB need to be installed separately. In the future, this will all be done for you with Docker.
