Longevity 0.15.0 - Query Enhancements

Longevity - a persistence framework for Scala and NoSQL - is now up to version 0.15.0! The latest release focuses on query enhancements. We have added orderBy, offset, and limit clauses to our queries and query DSL.

Sample Application for Longevity and Play Framework

I've ported my sample longevity application - Simple Blogging - from Akka HTTP to Play. The Play version is a Lightbend Activator tutorial, which you can find here. Or you can take a look at the source code here on GitHub.

Longevity is a persistence framework for Scala and NoSQL.

Longevity Getting Started Guide Now Available

I'm happy to announce that the Getting Started Guide for longevity is now available. It walks through a sample application called Simple Blogging, which uses longevity on the back end, and Akka HTTP on the front.

This guide will walk you through the basics of using longevity within a real application.

Longevity Now Supports Querying with Akka Streams

I'm excited to announce longevity release 0.8, which features streaming queries with Akka Streams! Prior to this release, longevity queries returned a list of results wrapped in a future, which was sort of only half-way reactive, and definitely wouldn't work in the face of query results that were too large to fit into memory. I was never particularly happy with this, but I had enough to do at the time with designing and implementing the query DSL.
