Parameter `Make.Fm`

Abstraction that governs the lifetime of the various files that are part of a pack store (except the branch store).

The file manager handles the files one by one and makes explicit all the interactions between them (except the index which is handled at a high level).

module Io : Io.S

Low level IO abstraction. A typical implementation is unix. This abstraction is meant to be dead simple. Not a lot of documentation is required.

module Control : Control_file.S with module Io = Io

Abstraction for irmin-pack's control file.

module Dict : Append_only_file.S with module Io = Io

Abstraction for irmin-pack's append only files (i.e. suffix and dict).

module Suffix : Append_only_file.S with module Io = Io

Abstraction for irmin-pack's append only files (i.e. suffix and dict).

module Index : sig ... end

An abstraction on top of the index library that exposes an API that better fits the irmin-pack use case.

]

val create_rw : 
  overwrite:bool ->
  Irmin.Backend.Conf.t ->
  (t, [> create_error ]) result

Note on SWMR consistency: It is undefined for a reader to attempt an opening before create_rw is over.

Note on crash consistency: Crashing during create_rw leaves the storage in an undefined state.

Note on errors: If create_rw returns an error, the storage is left in an undefined state and some file descriptors might not be closed.

val open_rw : Irmin.Backend.Conf.t -> (t, [> open_rw_error ]) result

Note on SWMR consistency: It is undefined for a reader to attempt and opening during an open_rw.

Note on crash consistency: If open_rw crashes during open_rw_migrate_from_v1_v2, the storage is left in an undefined state. Otherwise the storage is unaffected.

Note on errors: If open_rw returns an error during open_rw_migrate_from_v1_v2, the storage is left in an undefined state. Otherwise the storage is unaffected. Anyhow, some file descriptors might not be closed.

type open_ro_error := [

| `Corrupted_control_file

| `Index_failure of string
| `Unknown_major_pack_version of string

]

val open_ro : Irmin.Backend.Conf.t -> (t, [> open_ro_error ]) result

Note on SWMR consistency: TODO: doc

Note on crash consistency: The storage is never mutated.

Note on errors: The storage is never mutated. Some file descriptors might not be closed.

type close_error := [

| `Double_close
| `Index_failure of string
| `Io_misc of Io.misc_error
| `Pending_flush

]

val close : t -> (unit, [> close_error ]) result

Close all the files.

This call fails if the append buffers are not in a flushed stated. This situation will most likely never occur because the append buffers will contain data only during the scope of a batch function.

type flush_error := [

| `Index_failure of string

]

val version : root:string -> (Irmin_pack.Version.t, [> version_error ]) result

version ~root is the version of the files at root.
