include Irmin.Indexable.S
with type key = CA.key
with type hash = CA.hash
with type value = CA.value
Read-only stores
Read-only stores are store where it is only possible to read existing values.
type key = CA.key
The type for keys.
type value = CA.value
The type for raw values.
val mem : [> Irmin.Perms.read ] t -> key -> bool Lwt.t
mem t k
is true iff k
is present in t
.
val find : [> Irmin.Perms.read ] t -> key -> value option Lwt.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
.
type hash = CA.hash
The type of hashes of value
.
val index : [> Irmin.Perms.read ] t -> hash -> key 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 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.
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.
Overwrite unsafe_add
to work with a read-only database handler.
