Module Node.Store
Source
Store
creates node stores.
Parameters
module C : Contents.Store
module S : Content_addressable.S with type key = C.key
module M : Metadata.S with type t = V.metadata
Signature
include Indexable.S
with type 'a t = 'a C.t * 'a S.t
with type key = S.key
with type value = S.value
with type hash = H.t
Read-only stores
Read-only stores are store where it is only possible to read existing values.
The type for stores. The 'a
phantom type carries information about the store mutability.
mem t k
is true iff k
is present in t
.
find t k
is Some v
if k
is associated to v
in t
and None
is k
is not present in t
.
close t
frees up all the resources associated with t
. Any operations run on a closed handle will raise Closed
.
Write the contents of a value to the store, and obtain its key.
Same as add
but allows specifying the value's hash directly. The backend might choose to discard that hash and/or can be corrupt if the hash is not consistent.
Indexing maps the hash of a value to a corresponding key of that value in the store. For stores that are addressed by hashes directly, this is typically fun _t h -> Lwt.return (Key.of_hash h)
; for stores with more complex addressing schemes, index
may attempt a lookup operation in the store.
In general, indexing is best-effort and reveals no information about the membership of the value in the store. In particular:
index t hash = Some key
doesn't guaranteemem t key
: the value with hashhash
may still be absent from the store;
index t hash = None
doesn't guarantee that there is nokey
such thatmem t key
andKey.to_hash key = hash
: the value may still be present in the store under a key that is not indexed.
batch t f
applies the writes in f
in a separate batch. The exact guarantees depend on the implementation.
module Path = P
Path
provides base functions on node paths.
merge
is the 3-way merge function for nodes keys.
module Metadata = M
Metadata
provides base functions for node metadata.
module Contents : Contents.Store with type key = Val.contents_key
Contents
is the underlying contents store.
