The Basics
Install dependecies
Add mishmash io to your project:
// C# examples coming soon// Java examples coming soon$ npm install mishmash-io// PHP example coming soon$ pip install mishmash-io-client# Ruby examples coming soonConnect
Import and instantiate:
// C# examples coming soon
// Java examples coming soon
const Mishmash = require('mishmash-io')
mishmash = new Mishmash()// PHP example coming soon
from Mishmash import Mishmash
mishmash = Mishmash()# Ruby examples coming soon
You are now connected and mishmash will 'hold' all your data as if it was in the local memory of your app.
Info alert:Note
Store Data
To store data, just assign values, arrays and objects to the properties of a mishmash variable:
// C# examples coming soon
// Java examples coming soon
mishmash.myObjects[] = {
"a": 42,
"b": "a lazy dog",
"c": [obj1, obj2]
}// PHP example coming soon
mishmash.myObjects = {
"a": 42,
"b": "a lazy dog",
"c": [obj1, obj2]
}# Ruby examples coming soon
That's it - your data is stored and available for later use under mishmash.myObjects.
Info alert:Note
mishmash io has no schema. It just uses whatever 'schema' you create by the way you organize and store your data.Access Data
To pull data into your app, just loop over a mishmash variable:
// C# examples coming soon
// Java examples coming soon
for (o in mishmash.myObjects) {
if (o.a === 42) {
// do something
}
}// PHP example coming soon
for o in mishmash.myObjects:
if o.a == 42:
# do something
# Ruby examples coming soon
The body of the for loop will now operate on your app server with
data arriving from the mishmash io cluster. However, remember that
this will only run at the speed of your app server and network.

Advanced
Building 'mishmashes'
When building 'mishmashes' - those portions of the data that your code needs to work on - you don't have to strictly follow the hierarchy of properties, members and indexes that you created when you stored the data.
To simplify your work, you can grab the data items at any level:
// C# examples coming soon
// Java examples coming soon
mishmash_b = mishmash.b
mishmash_dogs = mishmash['a lazy dog']// PHP example coming soon
mishmash_b = mishmash.b
mishmash_dogs = mishmash['a lazy dog']# Ruby examples coming soon
And you can build mishmashes by putting together or slicing apart completely unrelated branches of your data:
// C# examples coming soon
// Java examples coming soon
cake = mishmash('chocolate',
'bananas')
coffee = mishmash.coffees.black// PHP example coming soon
cake = mishmash('chocolate',
'bananas')
coffee = mishmash.coffees.black# Ruby examples coming soon
Info alert:Note
'Query' with code
To achieve super-fast execution of complex logic, don't pull data
into the app - instead, push your code into the mishmash io cluster:
// C# examples coming soon
// Java examples coming soon
mishmash.myObjects(
function(input) {
for (o in input) {
if (o.a === 42) {
// do something complex
}
}
}
)// PHP example coming soon
def function(input):
for o in input:
if o.a == 42:
# do something complex
mishmash.myObjects(function)
# Ruby examples coming soon
The supplied function will now be automatically optimized and 'executed' in parallel across all cluster nodes that contain portions of myObjects and any other input.

Advanced Algorithms
Learn mishmash io through examples.
We developed a little app that analyzes football data to automatically find interesting statistics about the next match.
The details on how we did it are a great place to get started with mishmash io.
Warning alert:This section is being updated
We're currently working on adding more examples.
Follow us on Social Media where we will also publish material on topics like algorithms, Machine Learning, AI and more.
