The last couple of days I've been working on writing a RESTful JSON document database. While a number of these already exist (CouchDB, FeatherDB, DovetailDB, Persevere, JSONStore, etc.), I decided to write my own because I wanted a bit more control over the URL scheme used by the REST interface, and I needed the ability to tweak the search functionality to achieve decent performance on some common but complicated queries. All in all it was an interesting diversion. The actual server clocked in at about 1000 SLOC, with much of that boilerplate because I wrote it in Java/JDBC rather than Groovy/GroovySQL.
