| Summary : A key/value pair database to store software configurations
|
Description :
Elektra provides a universal and secure framework to store configuration
parameters in a global, hierarchical key database. The core is a small
library implemented in C. The plugin-based framework fulfills many
configuration-related tasks to avoid any unnecessary code duplication
across applications while it still allows the core to stay without any
external dependency. Elektra abstracts from cross-platform-related issues
with an consistent API, and allows applications to be aware of other
applications\' configurations, leveraging easy application integration.
== Facts and Features ==
* Elektra implements an API to fully access a global key database.
* Elektra supports mounting of existing configuration files into the global
key database.
* Elektra is multi-process safe and can be used in multi-threaded programs.
* Elektra (except for some plugins) is portable and completely written in
Ansi-C99.
* Elektra (except for some plugins) has no external dependency.
* Elektra uses the BSD licence.
* Elektra is suitable for embedded systems and early boot stage programs.
* Elektra supports comments and other non-configuration information by meta
data.
* Elektra can import, export and convert supported configuration files.
* Elektra is able to log and notify other software on any configuration
changes using dbus.
* Elektra is able to avoid the problem that any invalid configuration is
written into the permanent storage.
* Elektra is able to provide different mechanisms to locate configuration
files.
* Elektra supports different ways to escape and encode content of
configuration files.
* Standard key/value pair hierarchy and semantics are defined within
freedesktop.org.
This package also contains a Berkeley DB backend for Elektra, to let
Elektra use Berkeley DB databases to store its keys and daemon which can
be used as a proxy for access to the keys.
