# PieDB

Simple, Fast, and Lightweight Data Storage.

Tired of setting up complex databases for small projects? PieDB gives you a hassle-free way to store and manage structured data using just a JSON file. It is here to keep things simple. Designed for speed and efficiency, it lets you store and retrieve structured data effortlesslyâ€”no setup, no hassle.

With zero dependencies and a clean API, PieDB lets you:

âœ… Create collections with/without schemas â€“ Enforce structure or keep it flexible.

âœ… Easy CRUD â€“ No SQL, no headaches, just simple Python objects.

âœ… Query like a pro â€“ Use conditions ($gt, $lt, $eq, $ne), sorting, and pagination.

âœ… Multi-threading support â€“ Handles concurrent access safely.

âœ… Automatic backups â€“ Never lose your data.

Whether you're building a small app, prototyping, or need a lightweight alternative to traditional databases, PieDB keeps it fast, simple, and effective. ðŸš€

## Getting-Started

### Installing piedb

```bash
  pip install piedb

  # or update

  pip install piedb --upgrade
```

### Initializing Database

When you initialize PieDB, it automatically detects an existing database or creates a new one if it doesn't exist.

```bash
  from piedb import Database

  # Default database (creates "database.json" if not found)
  db = Database()

  # Custom database (creates "mydb.json" if not found)
  db = Database("mydb")
```

**Database(db_file: str = "database") -> Database**

- filepath (optional, str): Name of the database file (without extension). Defaults to database.json.

- Returns: An instance of Database.

### Database Backup

```bash
  from piedb import Database

  db = Database("mydb")

  #backup database
  db.backup_db("new_backup")
```

**backup_db(backup_file: str = "backup") -> bool**

- backup_name (str): Name for the backup file (without extension).

- Returns: True if the backup was successful, otherwise False.

### Deleting Database

```bash
  from piedb import Database

  db = Database("mydb")

  #Deletes database
  db.delete_db()
```

**delete_db() -> bool**

- Returns: True if the database was successfully deleted, otherwise False.
## Collections

### Creating Collections

```bash
  # Create collection without schema
  db.collection("users")
```

**collection(collection: str, schema: dict = None) -> None**

- collection (str): Name of the collection.

- schema (optional, dict): Schema definition for the collection.

- Returns: None.

### Updating Collection Schema

```bash
  # Define schema using all supported data types
  user_schema = {

      "age": int,        # Integer
      "balance": float,  # Float
      "is_active": bool, # Boolean
      "address": dict,   # Dictionary
      "hobbies": list,   # List
      "created_at": datetime  # Datetime (ISO format)
  }

  # Create/Update collection with schema
  db.collection("users", schema=user_schema)
