+ # PyColDB
34
+
35
+ An educational column-family store (wide-column database) built from scratch in Python. Part of the **PyLearn** platform for kids aged 12+.
36
+
37
+ ## What is a Column-Family Store?
38
+
39
+ A column-family store is like a spreadsheet where every row can have different columns. Instead of forcing every record to have the same fields, each row picks and chooses what data it stores. Real-world examples include Apache Cassandra and HBase.
40
+
41
+ ## Features
42
+
43
+ - **Columns** -- Name-value pairs with timestamps
44
+ - **Rows** -- Flexible records where each row has its own set of columns
45
+ - **Column Families** -- Named groups of rows (like gradebooks)
46
+ - **Keyspaces** -- Top-level containers for column families (like a school)
47
+ - **CRUD** -- Insert, read, update, and delete columns within rows
48
+ - **Range Queries** -- Get rows by key range (e.g., keys from "A" to "M")
49
+ - **Column Filtering** -- Get only specific columns from a row
50
+ - **TTL** -- Columns can expire after a time-to-live
51
+ - **Tombstones** -- Soft deletion with markers (like Cassandra)
52
+ - **Persistence** -- Save and load to JSON files
53
+ - **Compaction** -- Remove expired and deleted entries to reclaim space
54
+
55
+ ## Quick Start
56
+
57
+ ```python
58
+ from pycoldb import Keyspace, Column
59
+
60
+ # Create a keyspace (like a school)
61
+ school = Keyspace(name="school")
62
+
63
+ # Create a column family (like a gradebook)
64
+ school.create_column_family("grades")
65
+
66
+ # Add grades -- each student can have different columns!
67
+ school.put("grades", "alice", Column(name="math", value="A+"))
68
+ school.put("grades", "alice", Column(name="science", value="A"))
69
+ school.put("grades", "bob", Column(name="math", value="B"))
70
+ school.put("grades", "bob", Column(name="music", value="A"))
71
+
72
+ # Read a grade
73
+ grade = school.get_column("grades", "alice", "math")
74
+ print(f"Alice's math grade: {grade.value}") # A+
75
+
76
+ # Range query -- get students from "alice" to "bob"
77
+ from pycoldb import range_query
78
+ cf = school.get_column_family("grades")
79
+ rows = range_query(cf, start_key="alice", end_key="bob")
80
+ for row in rows:
81
+ print(f"{row.key}: {row.column_names()}")
82
+
83
+ # Save to disk
84
+ from pycoldb import save_keyspace, load_keyspace
85
+ save_keyspace(school, "school.json")
86
+ restored = load_keyspace("school.json")
87
+ ```
88
+
89
+ ## Installation
90
+
91
+ ```bash
92
+ # From source
93
+ git clone https://github.com/robcox2910/pycoldb.git
94
+ cd pycoldb
95
+ uv sync --all-extras
96
+ ```
97
+
98
+ ## Development
99
+
100
+ ```bash
101
+ uv run ruff check src/ tests/ # Lint
102
+ uv run ruff format src/ tests/ # Format
103
+ uv run pyright src tests # Type check
104
+ uv run pytest # Test (90%+ coverage)
105
+ ```
106
+
107
+ ## Releasing
108
+
109
+ Other projects in the series ([PyStack](https://github.com/robcox2910/pystack)) use a pinned release of this one,
110
+ not whatever is on `main`. To publish a change for them:
111
+
112
+ 1. Merge the change to `main`.
113
+ 2. Tag it: `git tag -a vX.Y.Z -m vX.Y.Z && git push origin vX.Y.Z`.
114
+ A change to the public API bumps the minor version (`v0.1.0` → `v0.2.0`);
115
+ anything else bumps the patch (`v0.1.0` → `v0.1.1`).
116
+ 3. In each project that uses it, edit the tag in `[tool.uv.sources]`, run
117
+ `uv lock --upgrade-package <name>`, and open a pull request so CI checks
118
+ the pair together.
