qvm v1.1.1

QVM.js

MeagaQuery is a database that is designed to search billions of key's that are similar, like a license plate number or a GeoKey, and runs on very low end hardware like a laptop.

Running:

First download this qvm

npm install qvm

then run it in your application

const qvm = require('qvm');
qvm.startServer(8080); // Your can use any port you want

// rest of your code

qvm.startServer is optional only if you want a http api. !WARNING this is NOT secured do not open this api to anyone only server's or a trusted endpoint!

Storing a value

HTTP

curl "http://localhost:8080/qvm/?key=KEY&value=VALUE"

Outputting
>>> {sucess: true}

Node.JS

qvm.api({
  key: KEY,
  value: VALUE
}, (logs) => {
  // logs >> {sucess: true}
});

Replace KEY with the key you want to look up the value with, and replace VALUE with the data you want to store.

Versioning

Whenever you store a value the value is stored in a blockchain, that means this database is append only. So when you query the database it returns the most recent value stored but every change is stored on the database so you can request old values but you can't remove a value this is useful because you are able to keep a record of every change in a value.

Reading a value

HTTP

curl "http://localhost:8080/qvm/?q=KEY"

Outputting
>>> VALUE

Node.JS

qvm.api({
  q: KEY
}, (data) => {
  // Do Whatever
});

Replace KEY with the key you previously used to store the value

Reading old versions

HTTP

curl "http://localhost:8080/qvm/?q=KEY&block=0"

Outputting
>>> VALUE

Node.JS

qvm.api({
  q: KEY,
  block: 0
}, (data) => {
  // Do Whatever
});

Replace block with the index of the data you want to find, the versioning works like an array starting at 0 and going up from there.

Error's

HTTP

curl "http://localhost:8080/qvm/?q=KEY"

Outputting
>>> {error: 'value doesn't exist'}

This means you haven't stored any values with the corresponding key

curl "http://localhost:8080/qvm/?q=KEY&block=12938108"

Outputting
>>> {error: 'block out of range: block < 3'}

This means that there are < 3 versions stored on the server so you need to pick a value between 0-2
