NWDataBase is an XML-based database system for small databases. It provides a lightweight database solution for webspaces where no SQLite is available. The system provides simple functions, including a search function.
The NWDataBase system is distributed under the MIT License which allows you to use it privately and commercially, to distribute, modify and sublicense it. You may not hold me liable and must include my name in the credits of your work.
NWDataBase was created by Kurt Höblinger aka NitricWare.
Unlike version 1.x, NWDatabase 2.x and 3.x does not require any additional packages. PHP Extension ext-dom must be installed, however.
Use Composer to install NWDataBase to your project via the composer require nitricware/nwdatabase command or your composer.json.
Alternatively you can also just include all the files from the src/ directory.
require("NWDatabase.php");
require("NWDBRecord.php");
use NitricWare\NWDatabase;
use NitricWare\NWDBRecord;For information about the functions of the class, please check the documentation inside the .php-file!
