(#322)
- [x] Design interface
- [x] Implement Sled backend
- [x] Re-implement the SledCountedTree hack ~~on Sled backend~~ on all backends (i.e. over the abstraction)
- [x] Convert Garage code to use generic interface
- [x] Proof-read converted Garage code
- [ ] Test everything well
- [x] Implement sqlite backend
- [x] Implement LMDB backend
- [ ] (Implement Persy backend?)
- [ ] (Implement other backends? (like RocksDB, ...))
- [x] Implement backend choice in config file and garage server module
- [x] Add CLI for converting between DB formats
- Exploit the new interface to put more things in transactions
- [x] `.updated()` trigger on Garage tables
Fix #284
**Bugs**
- [x] When exporting sqlite, trees iterate empty??
- [x] LMDB doesn't work
**Known issues for various back-ends**
- Sled:
- Eats all my RAM and also all my disk space
- `.len()` has to traverse the whole table
- Is actually quite slow on some operations
- And is actually pretty bad code...
- Sqlite:
- Requires a lock to be taken on all operations. The lock is also taken when iterating on a table with `.iter()`, and the lock isn't released until the iterator is dropped. This means that we must be VERY carefull to not do anything else inside a `.iter()` loop or else we will have a deadlock! Most such cases have been eliminated from the Garage codebase, but there might still be some that remain. If your Garage-over-Sqlite seems to hang/freeze, this is the reason.
- (adapter uses a bunch of unsafe code)
- Heed (LMDB):
- Not suited for 32-bit machines as it has to map the whole DB in memory.
- (adpater uses a tiny bit of unsafe code)
**My recommendation:** avoid 32-bit machines and use LMDB as much as possible.
**Converting databases** is actually quite easy. For example from Sled to LMDB:
```bash
cd src/db
cargo run --features cli --bin convert -- -i path/to/garage/meta/db -a sled -o path/to/garage/meta/db.lmdb -b lmdb
```
Then, just add this to your `config.toml`:
```toml
db_engine = "lmdb"
```
