gun

Quick getting started guide.

Make sure you already have node and npm installed.

npm install gun

Then require it in your app.

var Gun = require('gun');

Then initialize a gun instance with your AWS S3 credentials.

var gun = Gun({
  s3: {
    key: '', // AWS Access Key
    secret: '', // AWS Secret Token
    bucket: '' // The bucket you want to save into
}});

S3 is the default persistence layer, it can be replaced with others.

Currently, gun is only key/value but graph support is coming soon.

Save your first object, and create a reference to it.

gun.set({ hello: 'world' }).key('my/first/data');

Now, altogether, with the node hello world web server that replies with your data.

var Gun = require('gun');
var gun = Gun({
  s3: {
    key: '', // AWS Access Key
    secret: '', // AWS Secret Token
    bucket: '' // The bucket you want to save into
}});
gun.set({ hello: 'world' }).key('my/first/data')

var http = require('http');
http.createServer(function (req, res) {
  gun.load('my/first/data', function(data){
    res.writeHead(200, {'Content-Type': 'application/json'});
    res.end(JSON.stringify(data));
  });
}).listen(1337, '127.0.0.1');
console.log('Server running at http://127.0.0.1:1337/');
