Read-only stores

Read-only stores are store where it is only possible to read existing values.

type 'a t = 'a t

The type for stores. The 'a phantom type carries information about the store mutability.

type value

The type for raw values.

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.

val close : 'a t -> unit Lwt.t

close t frees up all the resources associated with t. Any operations run on a closed handle will raise Closed.

val index : [> Irmin.Perms.read ] t -> hash -> hash Irmin_pack.Pack_key.t option Lwt.t

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 guarantee mem t key: the value with hash hash may still be absent from the store;
  • index t hash = None doesn't guarantee that there is no key such that mem t key and Key.to_hash key = hash: the value may still be present in the store under a key that is not indexed.
val clear : 'a t -> unit Lwt.t

Clear the store. This operation is expected to be slow.

val batch : Irmin.Perms.read t -> ([ Irmin.Perms.read | Irmin.Perms.write ] t -> 'a Lwt.t) -> 'a Lwt.t

batch t f applies the writes in f in a separate batch. The exact guarantees depend on the implementation.

module Key : Irmin.Key.S with type t = hash Irmin_pack.Pack_key.t and type hash = hash

Overwrite add to work with a read-only database handler.

val unsafe_add : 'a t -> hash -> value -> hash Irmin_pack.Pack_key.t Lwt.t

Overwrite unsafe_add to work with a read-only database handler.

val index_direct : _ t -> hash -> hash Irmin_pack.Pack_key.t option
val unsafe_append : ensure_unique:bool -> overcommit:bool -> 'a t -> hash -> value -> hash Irmin_pack.Pack_key.t
val unsafe_mem : 'a t -> hash Irmin_pack.Pack_key.t -> bool
val unsafe_find : check_integrity:bool -> 'a t -> hash Irmin_pack.Pack_key.t -> value option
val v : ?fresh:bool -> ?readonly:bool -> ?lru_size:int -> index:Irmin_pack_unix__.Pack_index.Make(H).t -> indexing_strategy:Irmin_pack.Pack_store.Indexing_strategy.t -> string -> Irmin.Perms.read t Lwt.t
val sync : 'a t -> unit

Syncs a readonly instance with the files on disk. The same file instance is shared between several pack instances.

val flush : ?index:bool -> ?index_merge:bool -> 'a t -> unit
val offset : 'a t -> Optint.Int63.t
val clear_caches : 'a t -> unit

clear_cache t clears all the in-memory caches of t. Persistent data are not removed.

val integrity_check : offset:Optint.Int63.t -> length:int -> hash -> _ t -> (unit, [ `Wrong_hash | `Absent_value ]) result
module Entry_prefix : sig ... end
val read_and_decode_entry_prefix : off:Optint.Int63.t -> io_read:(off:Optint.Int63.t -> bytes -> int) -> Entry_prefix.t

Read the entry prefix at offset off.

val index_direct_with_kind : 'a t -> hash -> (hash Irmin_pack.Pack_key.t * Irmin_pack.Pack_value.Kind.t) option

Returns the key and the kind of an object indexed by hash.
