[redland-dev] Integrating a new storage implementation

[Andrew Reslan]

I want to integrate a new storage implementation.

This will be a readonly store, data will be side loaded (initially), access to the data would be via a query API on the storage layer, data persistence/read/write details will be handled by the underlying storage framework.

Which of the existing storage implementations would provide the simplest template as a starting point for integration?

It would also be really useful to know which operations to implement for a query only store and the best way to implement "unsupported" operations so that clients fail gracefully if they try to write to the store.

It looks like I will need to register the new implementation with the framework, what is the mechanism for doing this?

Any pointers appreciated.
