Subj : trying to get started with a simple json-db

Hi everyone, I decided to post my question in doveNET because my question is
somewhat general and maybe could be of use to people at a later date.  
Basically, I'm just trying to get acquainted with setting up a basic DB to hold
some user values with the user number acting as the index or primary key.  

I've got a couple js files that create json-db's, such as synchronetris or
uberblox, however, after browsing the code, I couldn't find any reference to
the creation of the db.  I've noticed if you add a DB service in the
services.ini it does not actually create the database at that point after
checking the directories.  Anyhow, if there's a point in the code or a
dependency I'm not looking at, I'm willing to investigate that rather than rely
on doveNET for the answer, but should doveNET be so kind as to provide a little
code to get me started, here's what I'd like to be able to do without being
overly complex :

1. Create a test json-db
2. Write a value to the db using USERID number as an index value
3. Retrieve that value from the DB

Out of these 3, #1 is obviously the most important.  I think I can figure out
how to work with the DB once it exists as I've read up on JSON schema and read
over json-db at least once(and will probably do a couple more times).  

Thanks for any help in advance,
grudge
