ripple is a rich Ruby toolkit for Riak, Basho's distributed database. It consists of three gems:
riak-client
(Riak
namespace) contains a basic wrapper around typical operations, including bucket manipulation, object CRUD, link-walking, and map-reduce.ripple
(Ripple
namespace) contains an ActiveModel-compatible modeling layer that is inspired by ActiveRecord, DataMapper, and MongoMapper.riak-sessions
contains session stores for Rack and Rails 3 applications.
riak-client
requires i18n and either json or yajl-ruby. For higher
performance on HTTP requests, install the 'curb' or 'excon' gems. The
cache store implementation requires ActiveSupport 3 or later.
ripple
requires Ruby 1.8.7 or later and versions 3 or above of
ActiveModel and ActiveSupport (and their dependencies, including
i18n).
riak-sessions
requires Rack (any version > 1.0), and Rails 3.0 if
you want the Rails-specific session store.
Development dependencies are handled with bundler. Install bundler
(gem install bundler
) and run this command in each sub-project to
get started:
$ bundle install
Run the RSpec suite using bundle exec
:
$ bundle exec rake spec
require 'riak'
# Create a client interface
client = Riak::Client.new
# Create a client interface that uses Excon
client = Riak::Client.new(:http_backend => :Excon)
# Create a client that uses Protocol Buffers
client = Riak::Client.new(:protocol => "pbc")
# Retrieve a bucket
bucket = client.bucket("doc") # a Riak::Bucket
# Get an object from the bucket
object = bucket.get("index.html") # a Riak::RObject
# Change the object's data and save
object.data = "<html><body>Hello, world!</body></html>"
object.store
# Reload an object you already have
object.reload # Works if you have the key and vclock, using conditional GET
object.reload :force => true # Reloads whether you have the vclock or not
# Access more like a hash, client[bucket][key]
client['doc']['index.html'] # the Riak::RObject
# Create a new object
new_one = Riak::RObject.new(bucket, "application.js")
new_one.content_type = "application/javascript" # You must set the content type.
new_one.data = "alert('Hello, World!')"
new_one.store
# Assuming you've already instantiated a client, get the album titles for The Beatles
results = Riak::MapReduce.new(client).
add("artists","Beatles").
link(:bucket => "albums").
map("function(v){ return [JSON.parse(v.values[0].data).title]; }", :keep => true).run
p results # => ["Please Please Me", "With The Beatles", "A Hard Day's Night",
# "Beatles For Sale", "Help!", "Rubber Soul",
# "Revolver", "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band", "Magical Mystery Tour",
# "The Beatles", "Yellow Submarine", "Abbey Road", "Let It Be"]
For more information about Riak Search, see the Basho wiki.
# Create a client, specifying the Solr-compatible endpoint
client = Riak::Client.new :solr => "/solr"
# Search the default index for documents
result = client.search("title:Yesterday") # Returns a vivified JSON object
# containing 'responseHeaders' and 'response' keys
result['response']['numFound'] # total number of results
result['response']['start'] # offset into the total result set
result['response']['docs'] # the list of indexed documents
# Search the 'users' index for documents
client.search("users", "name:Sean")
# Add a document to an index
client.index("users", {:id => "[email protected]", :name => "Sean Cribbs"}) # adds to the 'users' index
client.index({:id => "index.html", :content => "Hello, world!"}) # adds to the default index
client.index({:id => 1, :name => "one"}, {:id => 2, :name => "two"}) # adds multiple docs
# Remove document(s) from an index
client.remove({:id => 1}) # removes the document with ID 1
client.remove({:query => "archived"}) # removes all documents matching query
client.remove({:id => 1}, {:id => 5}) # removes multiple docs
client.remove("users", {:id => "[email protected]"}) # removes from the 'users' index
# Seed MapReduce with search results
Riak::MapReduce.new(client).
search("users","email:basho").
map("Riak.mapValuesJson", :keep => true).
run
# Detect whether a bucket has auto-indexing
client['users'].is_indexed?
# Enable auto-indexing on a bucket
client['users'].enable_index!
# Disable auto-indexing on a bucket
client['users'].disable_index!
require 'ripple'
# Documents are stored as JSON objects in Riak but have rich
# semantics, including validations and associations.
class Email
include Ripple::Document
property :from, String, :presence => true
property :to, String, :presence => true
property :sent, Time, :default => proc { Time.now }
property :body, String
end
email = Email.find("37458abc752f8413e") # GET /riak/emails/37458abc752f8413e
email.from = "[email protected]"
email.save # PUT /riak/emails/37458abc752f8413e
reply = Email.new
reply.from = "[email protected]"
reply.to = "[email protected]"
reply.body = "Riak is a good fit for scalable Ruby apps."
reply.save # POST /riak/emails (Riak-assigned key)
# Documents can contain embedded documents, and link to other standalone documents
# via associations using the many and one class methods.
class Person
include Ripple::Document
property :name, String
many :addresses
many :friends, :class_name => "Person"
one :account
end
# Account and Address are embeddable documents
class Account
include Ripple::EmbeddedDocument
property :paid_until, Time
embedded_in :person # Adds "person" method to get parent document
end
class Address
include Ripple::EmbeddedDocument
property :street, String
property :city, String
property :state, String
property :zip, String
end
person = Person.find("adamhunter")
person.friends << Person.find("seancribbs") # Links to people/seancribbs with tag "friend"
person.addresses << Address.new(:street => "100 Main Street") # Adds an embedded address
person.account.paid_until = 3.months.from_now
When using Ripple with Rails 3, add ripple to your Gemfile and then run the ripple
generator. This will generate a test harness, some MapReduce functions and a configuration file. Example:
$ rails g ripple
create config/ripple.yml
create app/mapreduce
create app/mapreduce/contrib.js
create app/mapreduce/ripple.js
create test/ripple_test_helper.rb
insert test/test_helper.rb
insert test/test_helper.rb
config/ripple.yml
should contain your Riak connection information, and settings for the test server. Example:
# Configure Riak connections for the Ripple library.
development:
http_port: 8098
pb_port: 8087
host: localhost
# The test environment has additional keys for configuring the
# Riak::TestServer for your test/spec suite:
#
# * bin_dir specifies the path to the "riak" script that you use to
# start Riak (just the directory)
# * js_source_dir specifies where your custom Javascript functions for
# MapReduce should be loaded from. Usually app/mapreduce.
test:
http_port: 9000
pb_port: 9002
host: localhost
bin_dir: /usr/local/bin # Default for Homebrew.
js_source_dir: <%%= Rails.root + "app/mapreduce" %>
production:
http_port: 8098
pb_port: 8087
host: localhost
require 'ripple/railtie'
from your config/application.rb
file to complete the integration.
-
Fork the project on Github. If you have already forked, use
git pull --rebase
to reapply your changes on top of the mainline. Example:$ git checkout master $ git pull --rebase seancribbs master
-
Create a topic branch. If you've already created a topic branch, rebase it on top of changes from the mainline "master" branch. Examples:
-
New branch:
``` bash $ git checkout -b topic ```
-
Existing branch:
``` bash $ git rebase master ```
-
-
Write an RSpec example or set of examples that demonstrate the necessity and validity of your changes. Patches without specs will most often be ignored. Just do it, you'll thank me later. Documentation patches need no specs, of course.
-
Make your feature addition or bug fix. Make your specs and stories pass (green).
-
Run the suite using multiruby or rvm to ensure cross-version compatibility.
-
Cleanup any trailing whitespace in your code (try @whitespace-mode@ in Emacs, or "Remove Trailing Spaces in Document" in the "Text" bundle in Textmate).
-
Commit, do not mess with Rakefile or VERSION. If related to an existing issue in the tracker, include "Closes #X" in the commit message (where X is the issue number).
-
Send me a pull request.
