README

eventstore command-line tool

go install github.com/fiatjaf/eventstore/cmd/eventstore@latest

Usage

This should be pretty straightforward. You pipe events or filters, as JSON, to the eventstore command, and they yield something. You can use nak to generate these events or filters easily.

Querying the last 100 events of kind 1

~> nak req -k 1 -l 100 --bare | eventstore -d /path/to/store query
~> # or
~> echo '{"kinds":[1],"limit":100}' | eventstore -d /path/to/store query

This will automatically determine the storage type being used at /path/to/store, but you can also specify it manually using the -t option (-t lmdb, -t sqlite etc).

Saving an event to the store

~> nak event -k 1 -c hello | eventstore -d /path/to/store put
~> # or
~> echo '{"id":"35369e6bae5f77c4e1745c2eb5db84c4493e87f6e449aee62a261bbc1fea2788","pubkey":"79be667ef9dcbbac55a06295ce870b07029bfcdb2dce28d959f2815b16f81798","created_at":1701193836,"kind":1,"tags":[],"content":"hello","sig":"ef08d559e042d9af4cdc3328a064f737603d86ec4f929f193d5a3ce9ea22a3fb8afc1923ee3c3742fd01856065352c5632e91f633528c80e9c5711fa1266824c"}' | eventstore -d /path/to/store put

You can also create a database from scratch if it's a disk database, but then you have to specify -t to sqlite, badger or lmdb.

Connecting to Postgres, MySQL and other remote databases

You should be able to connect by just passing the database connection URI to -d:

~> eventstore -d 'postgres://myrelay:38yg4o83yf48a3s7g@localhost:5432/myrelay?sslmode=disable' <query|put|del>

That should be prefixed with postgres:// for Postgres, mysql:// for MySQL and https:// for ElasticSearch.
