Ghkv

ghkv is a gem (and corresponding CLI tool) to allow for quick and dirty persistence when you really can't be bothered spining up a Redis instance.

Gem

require 'ghkv'

# token will be read from ENV['GHKV_TOKEN'] if not passed in
kv = Ghkv::Ghkv.new repo: 'consumer-data/github_build_notifier', token: '<some hex>'
kv['key'] = { "some" => "hash" }
kv['key'] # => { "some" => "hash" }
kv.keys # => ["some"]
# kv.delete 'key'
kv.save

If your repo is hosted on GitHub enterprise, you can pass in an api_url parameter (e.g. https://git.example.com/api/v3) or put it in ENV['GHKV_API_URL'].

CLI

# ~/.bash_profile
export GHKV_TOKEN=somehexvalue
