EJDB - Embedded JSON Database

EJDB (Embedded JSON Database) is a lightweight, embedded NoSQL database engine for Node.js, providing a MongoDB-like query language for local JSON document storage. The `ejdb` npm package specifically provides the Node.js bindings for the first generation EJDB engine. This version, `1.2.12-44`, is stable but officially discontinued and has not been updated in over seven years. The project has entirely transitioned to its successor, `ejdb2_node`, which is a complete rewrite. Users should migrate to `ejdb2_node` for active development, maintenance, and new features, including security updates. EJDB v1.x was designed for Node.js versions >=4.0.0 and focused on providing fast, self-contained, file-based JSON document storage with indexing, without requiring a separate server process. Its release cadence was sporadic, with its last publish seven years ago. Its key differentiator was being a high-performance embedded JSON store suitable for small to medium-scale applications where a full-fledged database server was considered overkill.
