Introduction¶

This is the main entry point for Gora documentation. Here are some pointers for further info:

• First if you haven't already done so, make sure to check the quick start guide.
• Basic information about gora modules can be found below.
• You can also take a look at the API Documentation which contains the javadoc for all of the modules combined. We are always looking for Documentation contributions.

You can find an abstract overview of how to configure Gora here.

Gora Modules¶

Gora source code is organized in a modular architecture. The gora-core module is the main module which contains the core of the code. All other modules depend on the gora-core module. Each datastore backend in Gora resides in it's own module. The documentation for the specific module can be found at the module's documentation directory.

It is wise so start with going over the documentation for the gora-core module and then the specific data store module(s) you want to use. The following modules are currently implemented in gora.

• gora-compiler: A page dedicated to the GoraCompiler; a critical part of the Gora workflow.
• gora-core: Module containing core functionality, AvroStore and DataFileAvroStore stores;
• gora-accumulo: Module for Apache Accumulo backend and AccumuloStore implementation;
• gora-cassandra: Module for Apache Cassandra backend and CassandraStore implementation;
• gora-dynamodb: Module for Amazon DynamoDB backend and DynamoDBStore implementation;
• gora-hbase: Module for Apache HBase backend and HBaseStore implementation;
• gora-sql: Module for HSQLDB and MySQL backend and SqlStore implementation;
• gora-mongodb: Module for MongoDB backend and MongoStore implementation;
• gora-aerospike: Module for Aerospike backend and Aerospike implementation;
