Part Two: Create your first database!

1. Create your schema

In your project folder create an .sdl file defining your table.

Note that the database will take the same name as the name of the sdl file

Example: tracking.sdl

2. Create your database

Simply run the rdm-create tool,

If you installed RaimaDB at the default location run:

				
					/opt/Raima/rdm_enterprise_enc_simple-16.0/bin/rdm-create tracking.sdl
				
			

3. Read and Write

Open the database and write and read just as you’re used to!

				
					/opt/Raima/rdm_enterprise_enc_simple-16.0/bin/rdm-sql
rdm-sql: open database tracking;
rdm-sql: insert into positions values 'some-id', 1, 2, 3, ‘some-timestamp';
rdm-sql: select * from positions;
