Class type

An ad-hoc module type used by implementations of the proxy mode when it uses the ../raw/bytes RPC to query its distant endpoint. It is ad-hoc because its get function has the concrete Proxy_context.M.tree as a return type and because add_leaf has the concrete Tezos_context_sigs.Context.Proof_types.raw_context as a parameter (this type is inherited from the return type of the ../raw/bytes RPC).

type t

The abstract type that implementors of this module type provide. Obtain an instance with empty. Think of t as a tree type.

type key

An abstract type of key.

val empty : t

empty returns a pristine value

get t key returns the tree of data mapped by key, if any.

add_leaf t key raw_ctxt returns a variant of t where key is mapped to raw_ctxt. When this function is called, it transforms raw_ctxt, under the hood, into an instance of Proxy_context.M.tree, as the latter is the type internally stored in t (it needs to be, as it's the return type of get).

This function is called add_leaf, because the proxy mode iteratively builds its local copy of the endpoint's data. This function is only called when adding a new leaf in the tree of data, never to replace existing data. In other words, it's not a general purpose setter.
