• CSV Files
• Azure Table Storage

CSV Files

CSV files implementation maps a local directory to IKeyValueStorage and data will be stored in CSV files in that directory.

For each table a new subfolder will be created called tableName.partition and inside the folder you will have files for each partition key named partitionName.partition.csv.

To construct, use:

IKeyValueStorage storage = StorageFactory.KeyValue.CsvFiles(rootDirectory);

To create from connection string:

IKeyValueStorage storage = StorageFactory.KeyValue.FromConnectionString("disk://path=rootDirectoryPath");

Azure Table Storage

In order to use Microsoft Azure Table storage you need to reference package first. The provider wraps around the standard Microsoft Storage SDK.

To construct, use:

IKeyValueStorage storage = StorageFactory.KeyValue.AzureTableStorage("account_name", "account_key");

Create using connection string:

IKeyValueStorage storage = StorageFactory.KeyValue.FromConnectionString("azure.tables://account=account_name;key=storage_key");

Using Azure Storage Emulator

Either use the factory method:

IKeyValueStorage storage = StorageFactory.KeyValue.AzureTableDevelopmentStorage();

or use the special connection string:

IKeyValueStorage storage = StorageFactory.KeyValue.FromConnectionString("azure.tables://development=true");
