See Writing a SQL database, take two: Zig and RocksDB for a walkthrough!
Build:
$ git clone https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb
$ ( cd rocksdb && make shared_lib -j8 )
$ zig build
And run!
$ ./main --database data --script <(echo "CREATE TABLE y (year int, age int, name text)")
echo "CREATE TABLE y (year int, age int, name text)"
ok
$ ./main --database data --script <(echo "INSERT INTO y VALUES (2010, 38, 'Gary')")
echo "INSERT INTO y VALUES (2010, 38, 'Gary')"
ok
$ ./main --database data --script <(echo "INSERT INTO y VALUES (2021, 92, 'Teej')")
echo "INSERT INTO y VALUES (2021, 92, 'Teej')"
ok
$ ./main --database data --script <(echo "INSERT INTO y VALUES (1994, 18, 'Mel')")
echo "INSERT INTO y VALUES (1994, 18, 'Mel')"
ok
# Basic query
$ ./main --database data --script <(echo "SELECT name, age, year FROM y")
echo "SELECT name, age, year FROM y"
| name |age |year |

# With WHERE
$ ./main --database data --script <(echo "SELECT name, year, age FROM y WHERE age < 40")
