Description

Lets Ruby code read and write simple key-value databases through the traditional DBM interface. It is useful for legacy tools or small local stores that need a lightweight database without a full database server.

DBM files are not a replacement for a modern transactional database. Check locking, encoding, backup, and corruption behavior before using them for important data.
