This library has been tested against RocksDB 6.4 on Linux and macOS.
Feedback and pull requests welcome! If a particular feature of RocksDB is important to you, please let us know by opening an issue, and we will prioritize it.

Bindings are pre-generated for x86_64 Linux. For other platforms, bindings are generated at compile time.
If the content in librocksdb_sys/crocksdb/crocksdb/c.h is updated, you may need to regenerate bindings:
