# = PStore -- Transactional File Storage for Ruby Objects
#
# pstore.rb -
# originally by matz
# documentation by Kev Jackson and James Edward Gray II
#
# See PStore for documentation.
require "fileutils"
require "digest/md5"
#
# PStore implements a file based persistence mechanism based on a Hash. User
# code can store hierarchies of Ruby objects (values) into the data store file
# by name (keys). An object hierarchy may be just a single object. User code
# may later read values back from the data store or even update data, as needed.
#
# The transactional behavior ensures that any changes succeed or fail together.
# This can be used to ensure that the data store is not left in a transitory
# state, where some values were updated but others were not.
#
# Behind the scenes, Ruby objects are stored to the data store file with
# Marshal. That carries the usual limitations. Proc objects cannot be
# marshalled, for example.
#
# == Usage example:
#
# require "pstore"
#
# # a mock wiki object...
# class WikiPage
# def initialize( page_name, author, contents )
# @page_name = page_name
# @revisions = Array.new
#
# add_revision(author, contents)
# end
#
# attr_reader :page_name
#
# def add_revision( author, contents )
# @revisions << { :created => Time.now,
# :author => author,
# :contents => contents }
# end
#
# def wiki_page_references
# [@page_name] + @revisions.last[:contents].scan(/\b(?:[A-Z]+[a-z]+){2,}/)
# end
#
# # ...
# end
#
# # create a new page...
# home_page = WikiPage.new( "HomePage", "James Edward Gray II",
# "A page about the JoysOfDocumentation..." )
#
# # then we want to update page data and the index together, or not at all...
# wiki = PStore.new("wiki_pages.pstore")
# wiki.transaction do # begin transaction; do all of this or none of it
# # store page...
# wiki[home_page.page_name] = home_page
# # ensure that an index has been created...
# wiki[:wiki_index] ||= Array.new
# # update wiki index...
# wiki[:wiki_index].push(*home_page.wiki_page_references)
# end # commit changes to wiki data store file
#
# ### Some time later... ###
#
# # read wiki data...
# wiki.transaction(true) do # begin read-only transaction, no changes allowed
# wiki.roots.each do |data_root_name|
# p data_root_name
# p wiki[data_root_name]
# end
# end
