ckvstore (v1)

Small embeddable key/value store library in pure C (C11) for Linux.

Build

make
make test

CLI

./ckvcli /tmp/store.log put key value
./ckvcli /tmp/store.log get key
./ckvcli /tmp/store.log del key
./ckvcli /tmp/store.log compact

Keys/values via CLI are treated as UTF-8 strings; the library API treats them as binary blobs.

Notes

• Single-file append-only log with PUT/DEL records
• In-memory hash index (open addressing)
• Crash recovery via log scan (trailing partial/corrupt record tolerated)
• Explicit compaction via ckv_compact()
