KodaSQL is a Relational Database Management System (RDBMS) in development, written in Rust. It sets up a tokio server and uses a custom network protocol that enables the client to interact with a csv-based database through a storage engine. The overall architecture is sketched in the following diagram, inspired by S. Pachev's excellent book Understanding MySQL Internals:
- Ensure you have Rust and
cargoinstalled. - Fetch the repository and from the root run:
cargo build --release,cargo run --release. - You can use the basic_client from examples to interact with your database from the CLI or build your own. Open a new terminal and run
cargo run --example basic_client.
The project is in early stages and as such it has support for a limited range of SQL commands. However, the basic architecture is in place and adding new features will require minimal effort.
