Riak Query Language, based on JSONSelect

riak-ql

A small query language atop the excellent JSONSelect for Riak Map phases.

Sample usage with riak-js

var db = require('riak-js').getClient();

db
  .add('users')
  .map('query', ':root where .admin && !.email:val("[email protected]")')
  .run()

Install

Copy riak-ql.js to your js_source_dir. This will make query available in the global scope.

Query Language

It is basically composed by a main selector, and an array of selectors exclusively used for conditions.

The main selector (the value you want to get out) is separated from the condition selectors by a where clause.

Boolean operators && and ! can be used as expected. There is no || as JSONSelect already allows this by separating expressions with a comma (,) - use that.

Everything is optional, which means that even an empty query will also work, returning :root.

More examples

.email

.email where !.expired

:root where .name("Justin"), .name("Mark")

where .admin

:root where .admin && .email:val("[email protected]") && !.expired

Warning

It is a very quick hack, not a proper parser.

Using the where or && literals for other than the intended use will cause trouble.

Not recommended for production use.
