leveldb基本知识

        levelDB是google开源的一个key-value存储引擎库，类似于开源的Lucene索引库一样。其他的软件开发者可以利用该库做二次开发，来满足定制需求。LevelDB采用日志式的写方式来提高写性能，但是牺牲了部分读性能。为了弥补牺牲了的读性能，一些人提议使用SSD作为存储介质。

        对于本地化的Key-value存储引擎来说，简单的使用一般都分成三个基本的步骤：（1）打开一个数据库实例；（2）对这个数据库实例进行插入，修改和查询操作；（3)最后在使用完成之后，关闭该数据库。

Opening A Database

A leveldb database has a name which corresponds to a file system directory. All of the contents of database are stored in this directory. The following example shows how to open a database, creating it if necessary:

#include <assert>#include "leveldb/db.h"leveldb::DB* db;leveldb::Options options;options.create_if_missing = true;leveldb::Status status = leveldb::DB::Open(options, "/tmp/testdb", &db);assert(status.ok());...

If you want to raise an error if the database already exists, add the following line before the leveldb::DB::Open call:

options.error_if_exists = true;

Status

You may have noticed the leveldb::Status type above. Values of this type are returned by most functions in leveldb that may encounter an error. You can check if such a result is ok, and also print an associated error message:

leveldb::Status s = ...;if (!s.ok()) cerr << s.ToString() << endl;

Closing A Database

When you are done with a database, just delete the database object. Example:

... open the db as described above ...... do something with db ...delete db;

Reads And Writes

The database provides Put, Delete, and Get methods to modify/query the database. For example, the following code moves the value stored under key1 to key2.

std::string value;leveldb::Status s = db->Get(leveldb::ReadOptions(), key1, &value);if (s.ok()) s = db->Put(leveldb::WriteOptions(), key2, value);if (s.ok()) s = db->Delete(leveldb::WriteOptions(), key1);

测试程序示例

#include <assert.h>#include <iostream>#include "leveldb/db.h"using namespace std;using namespace leveldb;int main(){DB* db;Options options;options.create_if_missing = true;//options.error_if_exists = true;Status status = DB::Open(options, "/tmp/testdb", &db);assert(status.ok());cout << status.ToString() << endl;string key1 = "hdu1", value1 = "123";string key2 = "hdu2", value2 = "456";string value;db->Put(WriteOptions(), key1, value1);db->Put(WriteOptions(), key2, value2);status = db->Get(ReadOptions(), key1, &value);if (status.ok())status = db->Put(WriteOptions(), key2, value);//if (status.ok())//status = db->Delete(WriteOptions(), key1);status = db->Get(ReadOptions(), key1, &value);if (status.ok())cout << key1 << ": " << value << endl;status = db->Get(ReadOptions(), key2, &value);if (status.ok())cout << key2 << ": " << value << endl;delete db;return 0;}

编译程序

命令：g++ -o test test.cpp /home/luox28/leveldb/libleveldb.a -I/home/luox28/leveldb/include -lpthread

当然，在下载好了leveldb源码后，进入到leveldb主目录，编译源码。  cd leveldb && make all
