Adding `ella` library as a dependency

Run this command in a terminal, in your project's directory:

cargo add ella

To add it manually, edit your project's Cargo.toml file and add to the [dependencies] section:

ella = "0.1.5"

The ella library will be automatically available globally. Read the ella library documentation.

Readme

Add ella to your Cargo.toml file:

ella = "0.1.5"

You may also want to install the ella CLI tools.

Building ella on Windows requires the Protobuf compiler to be installed. You can download a pre-built binary from the Protobuf repo.

You can access ella by either starting a new instance or connecting to an existing instance.

Start a new instance by opening or creating a datastore:

let el = ella::open("file:///path/to/db")
    .or_create(ella::Config::default())
    .and_serve("localhost:50052")?
    .await?;

Connect to an existing instance using ella::connect:

let el = ella::connect("http://localhost:50052").await?;
