CrateDB Ruby Client
A Ruby client library for the CrateDB HTTP interface.
- Query execution support.
- DDL command and schema introspection shortcuts.
- Support for BLOB tables.
- Foundation for the activerecord-crate-adapter.
Prerequisites
You will need Ruby 2.0 or greater.
Installation
The CrateDB Ruby client is available on RubyGems.org, see crate_ruby on RubyGems.org.
To use it, add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'crate_ruby'
Or install it manually:
gem install crate_ruby
Synopsis
Set up the client.
require 'crate_ruby'
client = CrateRuby::Client.new()Execute SQL queries.
result = client.execute("SELECT * FROM posts")
=> #<CrateRuby::ResultSet:0x00000002a9c5e8 @rowcount=1, @duration=5>
result.each do |row|
puts row.inspect
end
=> [1, "test", 5]
result.cols
=> ["id", "my_column", "my_integer_col"]Perform parameter substitution.
client.execute(
"INSERT INTO posts (id, title, tags) VALUES (\$1, \$2, \$3)",
[1, "My life with crate", ['awesome', 'cool']])Manipulate BLOBs.
require 'digest'
digest = Digest::SHA1.file(file_path).hexdigest
# upload
f = File.read(file_path)
client.blob_put(table_name, digest, f)
# download
data = client.blob_get(table_name, digest)
open(file_path, "wb") do |file|
file.write(data)
end
# deletion
client.blob_delete(table_name, digest)A default schema can be set by passing in the schema name.
CrateRuby::Client.new(['localhost:4200'], schema: 'my_schema')Authentication credentials can be passed to the client if needed.
CrateRuby::Client.new(['localhost:4200'], username: 'foo', password: 'supersecret')SSL can be enabled.
CrateRuby::Client.new(['localhost:4200'], ssl: true)Notes
See also CrateDB examples for Ruby for a basic example program, which exercises both the crate_ruby driver, as well as Ruby's canonical pg driver.
