Class type
Content-addressable stores are store where it is possible to read and add new values. Keys are derived from the values raw contents and hence are deterministic.
The type for content-addressable backend stores. The 'a
phantom type carries information about the store mutability.
type key = Hash.t
The type for keys.
find t k
is Some v
if k
is associated to v
in t
and None
is k
is not present in t
.
Write the contents of a value to the store. It's the responsibility of the content-addressable store to generate a consistent key.
Same as add
but allows to specify the key directly. The backend might choose to discared that key and/or can be corrupt if the key scheme is not consistent.
module Path = Key
Path
provides base functions on node paths.
val merge : [ `Read | `Write ] t -> key option Irmin.Merge.t
merge
is the 3-way merge function for nodes keys.
module Key : sig ... end
Key
provides base functions for node keys.
module Metadata : sig ... end
Metadata
provides base functions for node metadata.
module Val : sig ... end
Val
provides base functions for node values.
module Contents : sig ... end
Contents
is the underlying contents store.
