File DB states classes for ioBroker

The Library contains the Database classes for File based states database client and server.

Redis simulator

The states db client is always a redis client, but if the database type is file, it will communicate with a built-in redis simulator instead of a real redis db.

In the js-controller we use ioredis, the library supports all redis commands by simply calling them on the client instance, like redis.set("foo", "bar"). For an explanation of the commands in native redis, we refer to the redis documentation.

Currently, the following commands are supported by the simulator for states db:

Namespaces

The simulator supports five different namespaces:

• states (default: io.)
• messages (default: messagebox.)
• log (default: log.)
• session (default: session.)
• meta (default: meta.)

Overview

| Command | State of integration | namespace | | ----------- | ----------- | ----------- | | info | partial | independent | | quit | full | independent | | publish | full | all | | mget | full | states | | get | full | states, session, meta | | set | full | states, meta | | setex | full | states, session | | del | full | states, session | | keys | full | states | | psubscribe | full | messages, log, states, meta | | punsubscribe | full | messages, log, states | | subscribe | dummy | independent | | config | dummy | independent | | client | partial | independent |

info

Returns infomration about the simulator.

quit

This will close the connection.

publish

On publish the server will publish to all clients who have subscribed to the states, just like redis does.

mget

mget is used to receive multiple states from the server.

get

get is used to receive a single state from the server.

set

set is used to set a state to the database.

setex

setex is used to set a state to the database which automatically expires after a given time.

del

del deletes a given state from the db.

keys

It returns all matching keys.

psubscribe

Subscribes for a pattern to receive state changes.

punsubscribe

Unsubscribes a pattern to no longer receive state changes.

subscribe

Just a dummy needed to acknowledge expiring keys.

config

Mainly a dummy, just sends a positive response if notify-keyspace-events request received.

client

Is used to handle setname and getname requests. setname is used to change the logging namespace. On getname the server will respond with the current connection name, which has been set via getname.
