3 |
| -This example demonstrates how to use the Mbed OS Key Value Storage (KVStore) API. |
4 | 5 | KVStore is a key-value storage based API over a block device.
|
5 | 6 | Mbed-OS provides several KVStore implementation options, that can be optimized to
|
6 | 7 | the specific application requirements and target hardware:
|
7 | 8 | - TDBStore - Default implementation of the KVStore API. It provides static wear-leveling and quick access for when you have a small number of KV pairs.
|
8 | 9 | - FileSystemStore - Class that provides a key-value store API on top of a POSIX-like file system API.
|
9 | 10 | - SecureStore - Class that provides encryption, authentication and rollback protection on top of the KVStore API. It requires two KVStore implementations, one that provides the storage for the KV pairs and one that provides storage for the CMACs that protect KV pairs stored in the KVStore.
|
10 | 11 |
|
| 12 | +KVStore Global APIs use Mbed-OS [KVStore configuration](#kvstore-configuration) json file to define the selected KVStore implementation option of the above. |
| 13 | + |
11 | 14 | You can find more information about Mbed OS Key Value Store Design and other related items in the [kvstore design documentation](https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbed-os/tree/master/docs/design-documents/features/storage/KVStore/KVStore_design.md).

| 27 | +## Scenario |
18 | 28 |
|
19 |
| -## Working with KVStore |
| 29 | +The example sets several key/value pairs, some are defined as 'dummy' and some as 'real'. The example demonstrates several possible scenarios that set, get, search and remove specific keys, and iterate all keys. |
20 | 30 |
|
21 |
| -There are two main options for building a KVStore solution and working with it: |
22 |
| -1. Option A: Use Mbed-OS [KVStore configuration](#kvstore-configuration) json file to define your selected KVStore implementation. |
23 |
| -2. Option B: Build your own KVStore solution by directly defining the class modules that best fit your applicatio0n and hardware (either TDBStore, FileSystemStore or SecureStore) |
| 31 | +The example contains an [mbed-lib.json](./mbed-lib.json) configuration file that demonstrates how to set KVStore configuration for a specific target (K64F) that may override the [default configuration](#kvstore-configuration). |
24 | 32 |
|
25 |
| -Each of the above options has its own set of API functions: |
26 |
| -1. Option A: Global APIs - using the higher level static retargetting layer APIs, which rely on [KVStore configuration](#kvstore-configuration) |
27 |
| -2. Option B: Class APIs - directly calling the APIs of KVStore class on the implementing class instance (either TDBStore, FileSystemStore or SecureStore) |
| 33 | +## Hardware requirements |
28 | 34 |
|
29 |
| -## Examples Global/Class APIs |
| 35 | +KVStore general API may use several types of key/value storage classes, according to the configuration, that run on top of an underlying Block Device. Each type has different HW requirements for the underlying Block Device. |
| 36 | +1. TDB_INTERNAL - may run on top of flash Block Device only (typically internal flash) |
| 37 | +2. TDB_EXTERNAL - requires external flash for the key/value storage and typically internal flash for its replay protection storage. |
| 38 | +3. TDB_EXTERNAL_NO_RBP - requires external flash for the key/value storage |
| 39 | +4. FILESYSTEM - may use either flash or SD card for the key/value storage and typically internal flash for its replay protection storage. |
| 40 | +5. FILESYSTEM_NO_RBP - may use either flash or SD card for the key/value storage |
30 | 41 |
|
31 |
| -Each of the Options above has its own example: |
32 |
| -1. Example A: [Global APIs Example](./kvstore_global/README_KVStore_global.md) |
33 |
| -2. Example B: [Class APIs Example](./kvstore_api/README_KVStore_api.md) |
| 42 | +## Usage |
34 | 43 |
|
35 |
| -## Hardware requirements |
| 44 | +#### Import the example |
| 45 | + |
| 46 | +Make sure you have an Mbed development environment set up. [Get started with Mbed OS](https://os.mbed.com/docs/latest/tutorials/your-first-program.html) |
| 47 | +to set everything up. |
| 48 | + |
| 49 | +From the command-line, import the example: |
| 50 | + |
| 51 | +``` |
| 52 | +mbed import mbed-os-example-kvstore |
| 53 | +cd mbed-os-example-kvstore |
| 54 | +``` |
| 55 | + |
| 56 | +#### Compile the example |
| 57 | + |
| 58 | +Invoke `mbed compile`, and specify the name of your platform and your favorite |
| 59 | +toolchain (`GCC_ARM`, `ARM`, `IAR`). For example, for the ARM Compiler 5: |
| 60 | + |
| 61 | +``` |
| 62 | +mbed compile -m K64F -t ARM |
| 63 | +``` |
| 64 | + |
| 65 | +Your PC may take a few moments to compile your code. At the end, you'll see a |
| 66 | +result similar to: |
| 67 | + |
