Redix

redix is a very simple key => value storage engine that speaks redis and even more simpler and flexible. redis is very simple, sometimes we abuse it, so I decided to build a pure key-value storage system that introduces the core utilities for building any data structure you want based on the key => value model that is because I think that everything could be modeled easily using that model, so I decided to not to follow redis and all of its commands, you won’t find lpush, hset, sadd, … etc you will find a new way to do the same job but more easier and flexable, i.e, the well-known hset key field value command could be replaced with set key/field value, but sometimes you need to return a specific hashmap as key => value, but you run hget key field to get the key’s value and also it could be replaced with get key/field, but how could we replace hgetall key? I will say “it is easy”, let’s make the hget command work as a prefix scanner that scan the whole database.
