Show HN: ESENT Serialize, a .NET Persistence and Query Layer for ESENT NoSQL DB

• Const-me 10y ago
  Got some spare time, ported my old open source project to UWP platform. Used the library in several commercial projects, works OK. MS-provided ESENT API is too low-level, and its documentation is too low-level as well, making the DB engine relatively hard to use. Hopefully, I was able to fix that. As a starting point, here’s a quick start demo project: https://github.com/Const-me/EsentSerialize/tree/master/Demos/QuickStart https://github.com/Const-me/EsentSerialize/tree/master/Demos...

    Thank God you ported it UWP. I always had question "why would Microsoft release a application platform without DB support?". Until I learned there a thing call Jet and then there is something called ManagedESENT with API complicated as hell! ObjectDB recently did a UWP release too and made life somewhat easier. I one can write a simple Key/Value store on top of ESENT.

      There’re two key-value examples you can look at. Quick start demo essentially implements simple int->string dictionary (plus a full text index for that values). DictionaryDemo is slightly more complex, it implements string->ValueType dictionary, where values are stored in binary XML format using data contract serializer.
