Aerospike Go Client

Aerospike Client Go

An Aerospike library for Go.

This library is compatible with Go 1.5+ and supports the following operating systems: Linux, Mac OS X (Windows builds are possible, but untested)

Please refer to CHANGELOG.md if you encounter breaking changes.

Usage:

The following is a very simple example of CRUD operations in an Aerospike database.

package main

import (
  "fmt"

  . "github.com/archsaber/aerospike-client-go"
)

func panicOnError(err error) {
  if err != nil {
    panic(err)
  }
}

func main() {
  // define a client to connect to
  client, err := NewClient("127.0.0.1", 3000)
  panicOnError(err)

  key, err := NewKey("test", "aerospike", "key")
  panicOnError(err)

  // define some bins with data
  bins := BinMap{
    "bin1": 42,
    "bin2": "An elephant is a mouse with an operating system",
    "bin3": []interface{}{"Go", 2009},
  }

  // write the bins
  err = client.Put(nil, key, bins)
  panicOnError(err)

  // read it back!
  rec, err := client.Get(nil, key)
  panicOnError(err)

  fmt.Printf("%#v\n", *rec)

  // delete the key, and check if key exists
  existed, err := client.Delete(nil, key)
  panicOnError(err)
  fmt.Printf("Record existed before delete? %v\n", existed)
}

More examples illustrating the use of the API are located in the examples directory.

Details about the API are available in the docs directory.

Prerequisites

Go version v1.5+ is required.

To install the latest stable version of Go, visit http://golang.org/dl/

Aerospike Go client implements the wire protocol, and does not depend on the C client. It is goroutine friendly, and works asynchronously.

Supported operating systems:

  • Major Linux distributions (Ubuntu, Debian, Red Hat)
  • Mac OS X
  • Windows (untested)

Installation:

  1. Install Go 1.5+ and setup your environment as Documented here.
  2. Get the client in your GOPATH : go get github.com/archsaber/aerospike-client-go
  • To update the client library: go get -u github.com/archsaber/aerospike-client-go

Using gopkg.in is also supported: go get -u gopkg.in/aerospike/aerospike-client-go.v1

Some Hints:

  • To run a go program directly: go run <filename.go>
  • to build: go build -o <output> <filename.go>
  • example: go build -o benchmark tools/benchmark/benchmark.go

Performance Tweaking

We are bending all efforts to improve the client's performance. In our reference benchmarks, Go client performs almost as good as the C client.

To read about performance variables, please refer to docs/performance.md

Tests

This library is packaged with a number of tests. Tests require Ginkgo and Gomega library.

Before running the tests, you need to update the dependencies:

$ go get .

To run all the test cases with race detection:

$ ginkgo -r -race

Examples

A variety of example applications are provided in the examples directory.

Tools

A variety of clones of original tools are provided in the tools directory. They show how to use more advanced features of the library to reimplement the same functionality in a more concise way.

Benchmarks

Benchmark utility is provided in the tools/benchmark directory. See the tools/benchmark/README.md for details.

API Documentation

API documentation is available in the docs directory.
