**anydb** can do all the things you can do with skate:
```shell
# Store something (and sync it to the network)
anydb set kitty meow
![simple demo](https://github.com/TLINDEN/anydb/blob/demo/simple.gif)
# Fetch something (from the local cache)
anydb get kitty
# Whats in the store?
anydb list
# Spaces are fine
anydb set "kitty litter" "smells great"
# You can store binary data, too
anydb set profile-pic < my-cute-pic.jpg
anydb get profile-pic > here-it-is.jpg
# Unicode also works, of course
anydb set 猫咪 喵
anydb get 猫咪
# For more info
anydb --help
# Do creative things with anydb list
anydb set penelope marmalade
anydb set christian tacos
anydb set muesli muesli
anydb list | xargs -n 2 printf '%s loves %s.\n'
```
However, there are more features than just that!
```shell
# you can assign tags
anydb set foo bar -t note,important
# and filter for them
anydb list -t important
# beside tags filtering you can also use regexps for searching
# note, by default the list command only searches through keys
anydb list '[a-z]+\d'
# do a full text search
anydb list '[a-z]+\d' -s
# anydb also supports a wide output
anydb list -m wide
KEY TAGS SIZE AGE VALUE
blah important 4 B 7 seconds ago haha
foo 3 B 15 seconds ago bar
猫咪 3 B 3 seconds ago 喵
# there are shortcuts as well
anydb ls -l
anydb /
# other outputs are possible as well
anydb list -m json
# you can backup your database
anydb export -o backup.json
# and import it somewhere else
anydb import -i backup.json
# you can encrypt entries. anydb asks for a passphrase
# and will do the same when you retrieve the key using the
# get command. anydb will ask you interactively for a password
anydb set mypassword -e
# but you can provide it via an environment variable too
ANYDB_PASSWORD=foo anydb set -e secretkey blahblah
# too tiresome to add -e every time you add an entry?
# use a per bucket config
cat ~/.config/anydb/anydb.toml
[buckets.data]
encrypt = true
anydb set foo bar # will be encrypted
# speaking of buckets, you can use different buckets
anydb -b test set foo bar
# and speaking of configs, you can place a config file at these places:
# ~/.config/anydb/anydb.toml
# ~/.anydb.toml
# anydb.toml (current directory)
# or specify one using -c <filename>
# look at example.toml
# using template output mode you can freely design how to print stuff
# here, we print the values in CSV format ONLY if they have some tag
anydb ls -m template -T "{{ if .Tags }}{{ .Key }},{{ .Value }},{{ .Created}}{{ end }}"
# or, to simulate skate's -k or -v
anydb ls -m template -T "{{ .Key }}"
anydb ls -m template -T "{{ .Value }}"
# maybe you want to digest the item in a shell script? also
# note, that both the list and get commands support templates
eval $(anydb get foo -m template -T "key='{{ .Key }}' value='{{ .Value }}' ts='{{ .Created}}'")
echo "$key: $value"
# run the restful api server
anydb serve
# post a new key
curl -X PUT localhost:8787/anydb/v1/ \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{"key":"foo","val":"bar"}'
# retrieve it
curl localhost:8787/anydb/v1/foo
# list keys
curl localhost:8787/anydb/v1/
# same, but do a full text search by content, searching for "foo"
curl -X POST http://127.0.0.1:8787/anydb/v1/ \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json'
-d '{"key":"foo", "fulltext": true}'
# as you might correctly suspect you can store multi-line values or
# the content of text files. but what to do if you want to change it?
# here's one way:
anydb get contract24 > file.txt && vi file.txt && anydb set contract24 -r file.txt
# annoying. better do this
anydb edit contract24
# sometimes you need to know some details about the current database
# add -d for more details
anydb info
# it comes with a manpage builtin
anydb man
```
