Description
Hi !
I'd like to make a POC of using leveldb in order to store key-value table of different data types in protobuf format.
So far I was able to open the database file, and I also saw the get function with the following signature :
virtual Status Get(const ReadOptions& options, const Slice& key, std::string* value)=0
I understand that the value is actually refers to a binary string like vector and not regular alphanumeric string, so I guess it can fit for multi type primitives like string, uint, enum) but how can it support struct/class that represent protobuf layout in c++ ?
So this is my proto file that I'd like to store in the leveldb:
```
message agentStatus {
string ip = 1;
uint32 port = 2;
string url = 3;
google.protobuf.Timestamp last_seen = 4;
google.protobuf.Timestamp last_keepalive = 5;
bool status = 6;
}
```
and this is my current POC code. How can I use the get method to access any of the variables from the table above ?
```
#include
void main () {
std::string db_file_path = "/tmp/data.db";
leveldb::DB* db;
leveldb::Status status;
leveldb::Options options;
options.create_if_missing = false;
status_ = leveldb::DB::Open(options, db_file_path, &db);
if (!status_.ok()) {
throw std::logic_error("unable to open db");
}
```
Thanks !
