detti db server logo

Lightweight Json based key-value DB and/or server.


Introduction

Why:

  • Small, Fast, Efficient, Easy, Funny

Important:

  • The Detti DB handles string key, and many value types.
  • The Detti Server handles only string type as key and value (Dict[str, str]).

Links

detti DB

Configuration

The default config is detti_conf.ini.

It is in the root folder (next to the detti_db.py file).

The configuration file is a standard INI file format.

Default config:

[DETTI_DB]
# Path of the DB file. Recommended to define full path.
path_of_db = test.db
# Maximum length of the keys in DB (Avoid memory overload).
len_of_key = 100
# Maximum length of the values in DB (Avoid memory overload).
len_of_val = 100
# Level of the logger. Possible: DEBUG, INFO, WARNING, ERROR, CRITICAL
# IMPORTANT: The generated log file will contain all log level messages!
log_level = WARNING

Note:

  • The default detti_conf.ini file contains more sections but only the DETTI_DB section is related to the DB. Other sections are not used in case of DB. It is not problem if other (default) sections are not in the config file.

Use own config file:

  • There is config_file argument (str) of DettiDB class which set the used config file path.
  • Example:
    •  detti_db = DettiDB(config_file="own_config.ini")

Owerwrite config file parameters:

  • You can overwrite all config file parameters as instance variables.
  • Example:
    •  detti_db = DettiDB(len_of_val=50)  # The parameter is set to 100 in config file but it will be overwrite to 50.

Usage

Import DettiDB class from the detti_db module:

from detti_db import DettiDB

Create instance from DettiDB class (Using the default init values):

detti_db = DettiDB()

Supported types in DB:

  • Key
    • str
  • Value
    • str
    • float
    • int
    • list
    • dict

➡️ Setters:

Key: str, Value: str:

With dictionary like solution:

detti_db["test_str_key"] = "test_val"  # Set the value as "test_val" (str)

:Return: True if the setting is successful else False

Note:

  • If you want to set a non-supported value type, you will get a warning message, and the value won't be store to DB. Eg.:
    • detti_db["test_key"] = (1, 2, 3)  # Try to store Tuple type
      >> [detti_db.py][WARNING]  The getting value type is not supported (<class 'tuple'>). The value won't be stored.

With method usage:

detti_db.set("test_str_key_2", "test_val_2")  # Set the value as "test_val_2" (str)

:Return: True if the setting is successful else False

Note:

  • The set() method tries to cast the getting value to string. Eg.:
  • detti_db.set("test_str_key_3", 123)  # Set the value as "123" (str)

Key: str, Value: int:

With dictionary like solution:

detti_db["test_int_key"] = 8  # Set the value as 8 (int)

:Return: True if the setting is successful else False

With method usage:

detti_db.set_int("test_int_key_2", 9)  # Set the value as 9 (int)

:Return: True if the setting is successful else False

Note:

  • The set_int() method tries to cast the getting value to integer. Eg.:
  • detti_db.set_int("test_int_key_3", 123.123)  # Set the value as 123 (int)
    detti_db.set_int("test_int_key_4", "888")  # Set the value as 888 (int)

Key: str, Value: float:

With dictionary like solution:

detti_db["test_float_key"] = 8.8  # Set the value as 8.8 (float)

:Return: True if the setting is successful else False

With method usage:

detti_db.set_float("test_float_key_2", 9.9)  # Set the value as 9.9 (float)

:Return: True if the setting is successful else False

Note:

  • The set_float() method tries to cast the getting value to float. Eg.:
  • detti_db.set_float("test_float_key_3", 123)  # Set the value as 123.0 (float)
    detti_db.set_float("test_float_key_4", "888.888")  # Set the value as 888.888 (float)

Key: str, Value: List[Any]:

With dictionary like solution:

detti_db["test_list_key"] = ["a", 1]  # Set the value as ["a", 1] (list)

:Return: True if the setting is successful else False

With method usage:

detti_db.set_list("test_list_key_2", ["a", 1])  # Set the value as ["a", 1] (list)

:Return: True if the setting is successful else False

Note:

  • The set_list() method tries to cast the getting value to float. Eg.:
  • detti_db.set_list("test_list_key_3", ("a", 2))  # Set the value as ["a", 2] (list)
    detti_db.set_list("test_list_key_4", "abc")  # Set the value as ["a", "b", "c"] (list))

Append Any to list:

detti_db.append_list("key", "value")

Example:

detti_db.set_list("test_list", ["a", 1])
detti_db.append_list("test_list", 666)
print(detti_db["test_list"])
>>> ["a", 1, 666]

:Return: True if the appending is successful else False

Note:

  • The return value is False if you try to append a new element to a not existing key in DB.
  • The return value is False if you try to append a new element to a key which value is not list type.

Key: str, Value: dict:

With dictionary like solution:

detti_db["test_dict_key"] = {"a": 1}  # Set the value as {"a": 1} (dict)

:Return: True if the setting is successful else False

With method usage:

detti_db.set_dict("test_dict_key_2", {"a": 1})  # Set the value as {"a": 1} (dict)

➡️ Getters:

Get element

With dictionary like solution:

detti_db["test_key"]  # Return: "test_val"

:Return: The requested value if it exists in DB else None

With method usage:

detti_db.get("test_key_2")  # Return: "test_val_2"

:Return: The requested value if it exists in DB else None

Note:

  • The above getter solutions can return any types.

Using default value in get:

detti_db.get("not_exist_key", default_value=5)  # Return: 5 (Due to the "not_exist_key" key is not in DB.)

:Return: The requested value if it exists in DB else the set default value.

Note:

  • The above getter solutions can return any types.
  • Any type can be set as default parameter.

Get all elements:

The get_all() method provides the all key-value pairs from DB in Json format. It supports any types.

detti_db.get_all()  # Return: {'test_key': 'test_val', 'test_key_2': 'test_val_2'}

:Return: The requested items in dict if any exists in DB else empty dict


Check if key exists in DB:

The is_exist() method returns True if the key is in DB else False.

detti_db.is_exist("elem_key")

:Return: True if the key is in DB else False.


Deletion:

With dictionary like solution:

del detti_db["test_key"]

:Return: True if the setting is successful else False

With method usage:

detti_db.delete("test_key_2")  # Return True if it's success else False

:Return: True if the setting is successful else False


Searching:

Search keys based on provided prefix (Returning a Dict[str, str]):

detti_db.search_keys_in_db("my_")  # Return: {'my_test_key_4': 'test_val_4'}

:Return: The requested items in dict if any exists in DB else empty dict


Search values based on provided prefix (Returning a Dict[str, str]):

detti_db.search_values_in_db("my_")  # Return: {'test_key_4': 'my_test_val_4'}

:Return: The requested items in dict if any exists in DB else empty dict


Get size of DB:

detti_db.size_of_db()  # Return: 666 (int)

:Return: Size of the DB is bytes (int).


Get all keys of DB:

detti_db.get_all_keys()  # Return: ["test_key", "test"key_2"] (List[str])

:Return: All keys of the DB (List[str]).


Dump the current loaded DB to Json file:

detti_db.dump_to_json("dump.json")

Possible parameters:

  • file_path: Path of the destination file.
  • force: If it is given the existing file will be overwritten.
    • Default: False
  • permissions: Set the permission of file. It is true for overwritten files! Octal!
    • Default: 0o600

Eg.:

detti_db.dump_to_json(file_path="dump.json", force=True, permissions=0o664)

Complete example code (With not existing DB):

import os
import sys

# Get the path of the directory of the current file.
PATH_OF_FILE_DIR: str = os.path.realpath(os.path.dirname(__file__))

# Append the path of the tools folder to find modules.
sys.path.append(os.path.join(PATH_OF_FILE_DIR, ".."))

from detti_db import DettiDB  # noqa: E40

detti_db: DettiDB = DettiDB()

# setters
detti_db["test_key"] = "test_val"
detti_db.set("test_key_2", "test_val_2")
detti_db.set_int("test_int_key", 123)
detti_db.set_float("test_float_key", 123.123)
detti_db.set_list("test_list_key", ["a", 1])
detti_db.set_dict("test_dict_key", {"b": 2})

# getters
print("test_key -> {}".format(detti_db["test_key"]))
print("test_int_key -> {}".format(detti_db.get("test_int_key")))
print("test_list_key -> {}".format(detti_db["test_list_key"]))
print("test_dict_key -> {}".format(detti_db["test_dict_key"]))
print("All content: {}".format(detti_db.get_all()))
print("Number of elements in DB: {}".format(detti_db.get_number_of_elements()))
print("Size of DB: {}".format(detti_db.size_of_db()))
print("All keys in DB: {}".format(detti_db.get_all_keys()))

# deletions
del detti_db["test_key"]
detti_db.delete("test_key_2")

# Set some new items for searching
detti_db["test_key_3"] = "my_test_val_3"
detti_db["my_test_key_4"] = "test_val_4"

# Searching
print("'my_' key prefixes -> {}".format(detti_db.search_keys_in_db("my_")))
print("'my_' value prefixes -> {}".format(detti_db.search_values_in_db("my_")))

Output:

>>> python3 examples/db_example_1.py
test_key -> test_val
test_int_key -> 123
test_list_key -> ['a', 1]
test_dict_key -> {'b': 2}

detti Server (with RESTful API)

Configuration

The default config is detti_conf.ini.

It is in the root folder (next to the detti_db.py file).

The configuration file is a standard INI file format.

Default config:

[DETTI_DB]
# Path of the DB file. Recommended to define full path.
path_of_db = test.db
# Maximum length of the keys in DB (Avoid memory overload).
len_of_key = 100
# Maximum length of the values in DB (Avoid memory overload).
len_of_val = 100
# Level of the logger. Possible: DEBUG, INFO, WARNING, ERROR, CRITICAL
# IMPORTANT: The generated log file will contain all log level messages!
log_level = WARNING

[SERVER]
host = localhost
port = 5000
debug = True
# Setting the request limits in different unites. The most strict will be used!
sec_limit = 5
min_limit = 300
hour_limit = 18000
day_limit = 432000
# IMPORTANT
# If you set the user and password parameter the DB will be accessed with JWT Token!
user =
password =

Note:

  • The default detti_conf.ini file contains more sections but the SERVER and DETTI_DB sections are related (and mandatory) to the Server running. Other sections are not used in case of DB. It is not problem if other (default) sections are not in the config file.

Use own config file:

  • There is config_file CLI argument (str).
    • Force to use a config file. Default: detti_conf.ini (In root folder)
  • Example:
    • >>> python3 detti_server --config_file my_own_config.ini

Usage

Start the server:

>>> python3 detti_server.py

Output in case of successful starting (with the default config):

 * Serving Flask app "detti_server" (lazy loading)

JWT Authentication

Official page of JWT:

Important:

  • The JWT authentication is not active with the default configuration.

The "user" and "password" parameters have to be set in the configuration file to activate the JWT Authentication.

For example:

user = test_user
password = test_password

Get the token from the server:

>>> curl -i -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"username":"test_user","password":"test_password"}' http://localhost:5000/auth
> {
      "access_token": "eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJleHAiOjE2MTE4...
  }

Use the JWT authentication for APIs:

>>> curl -H "Authorization: jwt eyJ0eXAiOiJKV..." http://localhost:5000/get/exist
> {
      "exist": "exist_val"
  }

If the token is not used, the APIs provide error message with 401 status code:

>>> curl http://localhost:5000/get/exist
> {
      "description": "Request does not contain an access token",
      "error": "Authorization Required",
      "status_code": 401
  }

Production line

Currently, the production line support is not implemented in this repo (But it is in the road-map)! You can run the server on the production line with Nginx and Gunicorn.
