Datahike for Python

This repository provides native bindings for Datahike (see also the github repository) for Python 3.

Currently you need to manually provide libdatahike.so (or the respective dynamic library format for your platform) from a native image build of Datahike on your linking path (LD_LIBRARY_PATH on Linux). The core API of Datahike is then available with:

from datahike import *

config = "{:store {:backend :file :path \"/path/to/db\"} :schema-flexibility :read}"
tx_data = "[{\"age\": 42}]"

create_database(config)
transact(config, tx_data)
q = "[:find ?a . :where [?e :age ?a]]"
# provide a query and a list of inputs, here just a single database
query(q, [("db", config)])  # => 42

# cleanup
delete_database(config)

The API is a fairly direct partial mapping onto the Clojure API (click api) which contains documentation. If you need help please open an issue and/or join the Clojurians slack.
