similar to: Adding new storage backend to Dovecot

Hi I intend to write a new virtual backend for dovecot. Are there any hacking docs describing how the code is organized, eventually also important structs and how to hook myself into the system, or do I have to go the classical way? Thanks --Flavius

Hello, I found a posting on the mailing list from 2008 "Adding new storage backend to Dovecot" while searching for POP3 and IMAP servers, that allow to use a NoSQL backend rather than a traditional file system. The problem with traditional filesystems is, that they are very limited. You cannot easily extend it, even with RAID 10 all messages may be lost due to a RAID controller

Hello all, I'm kind of surprised that searching the archives and Googling haven't given me a result for this... I've got a large amount of data that is a good fit for CouchDB; it's reasonably unstructured, and such structure that exists is quite fluid. I want to slice the data in many different ways, some of which really don't fit well with a relational database model. I

Hi, I?m looking for how to integrate couchdb with xapian. Couchdb has a elasticsearch plugin, but i didn?t find anything about xapian. How is the best way to do it ? There some tips / tricks about xapian and couchdb ? Best Regards ! Carlos Brazil.

Good day, does anyone here have a clue on how to make use of the NoSQL database "Riak" with Camping? I am building my website and Riak seems like pretty much the ultimate database! This would probably ruin every little feature in ActiveRecord, I don''t think I''d be able to do any has_many''s or belongs_to but I''d LOVE to be proven wrong. As far as

Configurations with multiple shared namespaces can trigger a bug where the first argument of strcmp() invocation is NULL.

Hello, I am writing a RoR application that connects to a couchDB database using couchrest_model. The definition of my model is the following one: class BdsDataAuthor < CouchRest::Model::Base property :id, Integer property :first_name, String property :last_name, String end I would like to be able to get the list of the model columns, e.g., the result of BdsDataAuthor.columns would be

I want to create a general model ''Product'' that I will be able to store several attributes in it. For example the attributes :id :name :description are pretty stantard. So each product will have this attributes. However, I wanted to know if it is possible to create dynamic attributes. In the case of a cell phone device I might want to store the IMEI of the phone, this

This is something I figured out a few months ago, mainly because this one guy at work (hi, Stu) kept telling me my multi-master replication plan sucked and we should use some existing scalable database. (I guess it didn't go exactly like that, but that's the result anyway.) So, my current plan is based on a couple of observations: * Index files are really more like memory dumps.

In case anyone is interested in reading (and maybe helping!) with a dsync redesign that's intended to fix all of its current problems, here are some possibly incoherent ramblings about it: http://dovecot.org/tmp/dsync-redesign.txt and even if you don't understand that, here's another document disguising as an algorithm class problem :) If anyone has thoughts on how to solve it, would

Hi, Should I be able to use the Webrick postamble instead of using .campingrc, to tell Camping I want to use mysql? It doesn''t seem to be working for me. It does work however, when I''m using FastCGI (establish_connection :adapter => ''mysql''). James

Hello, I am researching using dovecot with an SQL database as the storage backend. From what I've read, dovecot only supports mbox style file storage, but I'd like to investigate the possibility of using a database instead. According to http://dovecot.org/pipermail/dovecot/2006-June/013818.html, this possibility has been explored before and has generally been accepted that Dovecot

I have a Lexicon model, and I want user to be able to create dynamic feature to every lexicon. And I have a complicate search interface that let user search on every single feature (including the dynamic ones) belonged to Lexicon model. I could have used a serialized text field to save all the dynamic information if they are not for searching. In case I want to let user search on all fields, I

Hi list, I''ve used DatabaseCleaner in the past, but only when using Cucumber and Selenium (or Steak + Celerity) since turning on transactional_fixtures would prevent the data being accessible from app-server that is also triggered for the tests. This works fine, and is a de-facto solution for this problem. I don''t see why I would want to use DatabaseCleaner with rspec though,

Hey everyone, I''m trying to find a work around for a performance problem I''ve been having. I have a class that builds paths (among other things) dynamically to many files and folders depending on what sets of information the user accesses. Once built, this class instantiation contains all the information necessary for several pages (controllers/views) to operate. However at

Earl, would you be able to update your patch so that it applies against the current git master?

The Partek package (www.partek.com) allows only two selections for Multiple Test Correction: Bonferroni and Dunn-Sidak. Can anyone suggest why Partek implemented Dunn-Sidak and not the other methods that R has? Is there any particular advantage to the Dunn-Sidak method? R knows about these methods (in R 2.1.1): > p.adjust.methods [1] "holm" "hochberg" "hommel"

Hi all, In the last couple of months, there have been two proposed patches for the regain play analysis code. The first by Nathan Rennie-Waldock: http://lists.xiph.org/pipermail/flac-dev/2011-December/003070.html simply adds some more higher sample rates. The second by Earl Chew: http://lists.xiph.org/pipermail/flac-dev/2012-January/003067.html is more comprehensive. Neither of the

The test is rather simple, and only compares the computed output values for a 1kHz signal at the known filter table sampling frequencies with previously obained golden values. As such, the test only verifies that the performance of the replay gain analyser has not changed. A better test would be to compare the computed value with an independently obtain theorectical value. This is possible by
