I've written numerous tiny databases. They don't have much features, but they don't need much features. Usually I'm looking for fast simple key/value stores and Node never disappoints. The point here is, why abstract key value store when JS gives us one for free, as it's most basic component: object.

Will it meet every need? No. But it will meet ALOT of scenarios.

In memory JS object lookups, were talking hundreds of thousands of lookups (you'll easily flood http before the db), and save hundreds of thousands of records in a JSON file written to disk. Not a 200ms r/t to some hosted Redis. Hey, that's fine if that's your thing.

Here's the requirements:

Password Strength Regex

Ensures a password has...

One uppercase
One lowercase
One special character
Two digits
Length greater than 8

Populating Data in KeystoneJS

Keystone's createItems function is a simple but powerful way to populate your database with data.

It can be used to create test fixtures or initialise your database with default content / users / etc.

There's also a shorthand syntax that can be used within update files; if you are using the auto updates feature, any file that exports a create object will automatically be wrapped and the data will be created.

createItems takes two passes at the data it is passed, first creating the items and retaining references by key (if provided) that can be used to populate relationships in the second pass. This makes it easy to create related data without asynchronous nesting (which for data creation sometimes ends up in knots).

	Music For Hackers
	==

	To a hacker, there's something distracting about booting up a GUI to listen to your tunes. You live your life in the terminal, you treat the mouse like a high voltage tap.

	So give these commands a run in the terminal, and toss on your headphones.

	sudo apt-get install mplayer
	echo "alias defcon-start='nohup mplayer http://sfstream1.somafm.com:6200 > /dev/null 1>&2 &'" >> ~/.bashrc
	echo "alias defcon-stop='killall -9 mplayer'" >> ~/.bashrc

	<?php
	// dangerously simple PHP regular expression URL router
	// requires a mod_rewrite like "RewriteRule . /index.php [L]"

	function get($url, $callback) {
	$matches = array();
	if (preg_match('~' . $url . '~', $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], $matches)) {
	echo call_user_func_array($callback, $matches);
	die();
	}

	# START: THUMBNAIL HANDLING #
	#############################

	# Since handling thumbnails in Nette is painfully slow (loading the whole framework
	# just to find out that the thumbnail has already existed), there is a workaround
	# that finds all the generated thumbnails using mod_rewrite and only redirects to the
	# script if generating a thumbnail is really needed.

	# Even for generating thumbs the standard Nette usage is slow, so there is another workaround.
