OCaml-lmdb Build Status docs

The LMDB database is a fast in-file database that supports ACID transactions.

These bindings expose a typesafe yet low-overhead API. Both transactions and cursors are available. Database implementations are specialized both by keys and values. Two module are predefined: Lmdb.Db (string keys and string values) and Lmdb.IntDb (int keys and string values). New implementation (which can use special LMDB features such as multi-values) can be added via a functorial interface.

Please consult the documentation and a simple example.

let open Lmdb in
let env = Env.(create Rw ~flags:Flags.no_subdir ~max_maps:1) "mydb" in
let map = Map.create Nodup ~key:Conv.string ~value:Conv.string
        ~name:"Camelidae" env in
Map.add map "Bactrian camel" "Elegant and beautiful animal with two humps."
