Storage is a SQLite database API. API documentation is available in the Mozilla Developer Center.
Proposed Future Development Priorities
Full Text Indexing
- separation of indexing from storage
- Firefox could use this to index visited web pages without having to store the contents of the pages themselves.
- Thunderbird could use this to index email messages without having to store their contents in SQLite (ultimately it might make sense to store contents as well, but that's a larger, longer-term change).
- Komodo could use this to index source code stored in files on disk.
- built-in tokenization of Unicode text (i.e. without having to either compile in a large separate library or write custom functions);
- tokenization of marked up text (HTML, PDF, etc.).
