Summary

Rustbreak is a very simple to use database. It is meant to be used as a quick drop in database for all sorts of tools, where setting up an SQL infrastructure would be too much.

When to use

Use Rustbreak only if you understand these caveats:

• Single file (depending on filesystem this might cause problems later on)
• Meant to be human readable and editable
• Does not scale to multiple concurrent processes (it is thread safe though)

If you need, or forseeable need better than those points, then do not use Rustbreak! It will not behave well, or work as advised.

This only holds for Version 2.0, later versions might add more or remove some of these problems.

Licensing

Rustbreak is dual licensed, it is available for free under the GPL license for all purposes. If you however plan on making money with it without open-sourcing your software, you might be better served with a commercial license. You can request one by contacting me by email.
