C++ and Python wrapper to facilitate key-value store with the Redis database.

• Redis >= 1.2
• Hiredis
• redis-py

• Launch Redis server on 127.0.0.1:6379
• C++
  • Import the header file into the C++ source file i.e. #include "parameter_server/brosdb.h"
  • The header file contains set() and get() functions to facilitate key-value store in the Redis database.
  • The function set() is declared as follows,

    template<typename T> 
    void set(std::string key, T value);

    and get() as

    template<typename T> 
    void get(std::string key, T *value);

  • The key is expected to of type std::string. Value can be either primitive or user defined.
  • Source file needs to be linked against lhiredis.
• Python
  • Import setData and getData from brosdb

    from brosdb import setData, getData

  • The module contains setData() and getData() functions to facilitate key-value store in the Redis database.
  • The function setData() is declared as follows,

    def setData(key, value)

    and getData() as

    def getData(key, defaultValue = None)

  • The key is expected to be of type str.

• C++

  #include <bits/stdc++.h>
  #include "parameter_server/brosdb.h"
  
  int main() {
      int a=5;
      std::string str("foo");
      brosdb::set(str, a);
      int b;
      brosdb::get(str, &b);
      std::cout<<b;
  }

• Python

  from brosdb import setData, getData
  
  setData("foo", "bar")
  value = getData("foo")
  print(value)
