Hello everyone, a few months ago I wrote a terminal tool in Rust to help view data stored in embedded databases like RocksDB or Sled. As someone who enjoys coding low-level systems, I found it very difficult when there were almost no tools available to view the byte data of embedded databases. That's why EDMA was created to solve that problem.
The project is still in its early stages, but it already encompasses some of the main features. I hope it will be useful for those who are into low-level or embedded programming.
EDMA is a command-line tool that allows users to interact with embedded databases at a byte level. It provides a simple yet powerful interface to view, modify, and delete data in databases like RocksDB or Sled. The tool is built using Rust, a systems programming language known for its safety, speed, and concurrency.
One of the key features of EDMA is its ability to work with a wide range of data types. Users can view and modify data in the database in different formats, including binary, hexadecimal, and ASCII. They can also specify the type of data stored in the database and EDMA will interpret it accordingly.
Another useful feature of EDMA is its support for filtering and sorting data. Users can search for specific data based on a range of criteria, such as key or value length, and sort the data by key or value. This makes it easy to find and analyze specific data in the database.
EDMA is designed to be easy to use and customizable. Users can configure the tool to work with their specific database and data format requirements. They can also extend the functionality of the tool by creating custom plugins.
Overall, EDMA is a valuable tool for developers working with embedded databases. It simplifies the process of working with low-level data and provides a convenient interface for analyzing and modifying data in embedded databases.
