bsql

An experiment to implement a generic SQL-database in Rust without any external dependencies for learning about database internals.

It stores its data and metadata into pages (sized 4096 bytes each) in the bsql.db file.

Build

$ cargo build

Run

$ cargo run

Example use

# Create a new database named `test`.
> CREATE DATABASE test;
CREATE DATABASE

# Set `test` as our active database.
> \c test
You are now connected to database "test".

# Create a new table `drivers` with a single column, `number`.
test> CREATE TABLE drivers (number integer);
CREATE TABLE

# Insert some rows into the table.
test> INSERT INTO drivers VALUES (44);
INSERT 0 1
test> INSERT INTO drivers VALUES (4);
INSERT 0 1
test> INSERT INTO drivers VALUES (11);
INSERT 0 1

# Select all rows from the `drivers` table.
test> SELECT * FROM drivers;
