Re: [Ceph - Feature #4230] (New) librados: node.js bindings

Hi Wido,

Also cc'ing ceph-devel.

Few months ago I started to write node bindings to librados. No
specific use case either, just curious to learn a little bit more
about v8 and librados.

My first work was to do a 1:1 wrapping, but it wasn't javascripty enough.
I started over and was able to do stuff like:
var librados = require('./build/Release/nrados');
var rados = new librados.Rados({
   'user': 'admin',
   'keyring': '/etc/ceph/keyring',
   'monitors': '[ 192.168.0.20 ]'
});

var ioctx = new librados.IoCtx();
rados.connect(function (err) {
   if (err)
       throw err;
   rados.ioctx_create('mypool', ioctx, function (err) {
     if (err)
       throw err;
     ioctx.write_full('myobject1', 'aa');
   });
});
Which is better, but still, clumsy (I want to get rid of ioctx_create).
I need to put some thoughts into the overall design.

I didn't touch the code for about two months, and couldn't find it
this morning. As soon as I figure out where it is, I'll create a
github repo.

Of course, thoughts and suggestions are welcome.
