= ActiveDocument ActiveDocument is a persistent Model store built on Berkeley DB. It was inspired by ActiveRecord, and in some cases, it can be used as a drop-in replacement. The performance of ActiveDocument can exceed a traditional ORM for many applications, because the database is stored locally and all lookups must use a predefined index. Also, attributes do not have to be cast after they are read from the database like in ActiveRecord. Instead, Ruby objects are stored directly in Berkeley DB and loaded using Marshal, which makes loading objects much faster. For more information on the diffences between Berkeley DB and a relational Database, see (http://www.oracle.com/database/docs/Berkeley-DB-v-Relational.pdf). == Usage: require 'active_document' class User < ActiveDocument::Base path '/data/bdb' accessor :first_name, :last_name, :username, :email_address primary_key :username index_by [:last_name, :first_name] index_by :email_address, :unique => true end User.create( :first_name => 'John', :last_name => 'Stewart', :username => 'lefty', :email_address => 'john@thedailyshow.com' ) User.find('lefty').attributes => {:first_name=>"John", :last_name=>"Stewart", :username=>"lefty", :email_address=>"john@thedailyshow.com"} == Install: sudo gem install ninjudd-bdb -s http://gems.github.com sudo gem install ninjudd-tuple -s http://gems.github.com sudo gem install ninjudd-active_document -s http://gems.github.com == License: Copyright (c) 2009 Justin Balthrop, Geni.com; Published under The MIT License, see LICENSE
