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:

var walkSync = function(dir, filelist) {
  var fs = fs || require('fs'),
      files = fs.readdirSync(dir);
  filelist = filelist || [];
  files.forEach(function(file) {
    if (fs.statSync(dir + file).isDirectory()) {
      filelist = walkSync(dir + file + '/', filelist);
    }
    else {

Node.js core does its best to treat every platform equally. Even if most Node developers use OS X day to day, some use Windows, and most everyone deploys to Linux or Solaris. So it's important to keep your code portable between platforms, whether you're writing a library or an application.

Predictably, most cross-platform issues come from Windows. Things just work differently there! But if you're careful, and follow some simple best practices, your code can run just as well on Windows systems.

Paths and URLs

On Windows, paths are constructed with backslashes instead of forward slashes. So if you do your directory manipulation
