Trippy is all about Tripples

Heavily inspired by levelgraph.

Trippy is a new levelDB module. Experimental, graph database.

What?

A mesh of loosely connectable tripples.

Whats a tripple? A JavaScript object of three keys, namely: 'subject','predicate','object'. Thinking about the grammer as a sentence makes it easier to understand. Graph tripples also pay dividends for complex/interconnected queries.

Installation

Install packages as needed using npm:

$ npm install trippy levelup leveldown level-sublevel multilevel

Example

var levelup = require('levelup');
var db = trippy(levelup('data'));

var tripple = {
  s:'requestshark',
  p:'follows',
  o:'badeen'
}

db.put(tripple, function (err){
  
  db.get({

    o:'badeen'

  }, function (err,value){

    console.log(value);

  });

});

Why?

To simplify graph streams over remote protocols/processes, building with multilevel and sublevel in mind.
