pail

Test JavaScript Style Guide

DAG based key value store. Sharded DAG that minimises traversals and work to build shards.

Install

npm install @web3-storage/pail

Usage

import { put, get, del } from '@web3-storage/pail'
import { ShardBlock } from '@web3-storage/pail/shard'
import { MemoryBlockstore } from '@web3-storage/pail/block'

// Initialize a new bucket
const blocks = new MemoryBlockstore()
const init = await ShardBlock.create() // empty root shard
await blocks.put(init.cid, init.bytes)

// Add a key and value to the bucket
const { root, additions, removals } = await put(blocks, init.cid, 'path/to/data0', dataCID0)

console.log(`new root: ${root}`)

// Process the diff
for (const block of additions) {
  await blocks.put(block.cid, block.bytes)
}
for (const block of removals) {
  await blocks.delete(block.cid)
}

Batch operations

If adding many multiple items to the pail together, it is faster to batch them together.

import { put, get, del } from '@web3-storage/pail'
import { ShardBlock } from '@web3-storage/pail/shard'
import { MemoryBlockstore } from '@web3-storage/pail/block'
import * as Batch from '@web3-storage/pail/batch'

// Initialize a new bucket
const blocks = new MemoryBlockstore()
const init = await ShardBlock.create() // empty root shard
await blocks.put(init.cid, init.bytes)

const batch = await Batch.create(blocks, init.cid)

// items is an array of `{ key: string, value: CID }` - the items to add to the pail
for (const item of items) {
  await batch.put(item.key, item.value)
}

const { root, additions, removals } = await batch.commit()

console.log(`new root: ${root}`)

// Process the diff
for (const block of additions) {
  await blocks.put(block.cid, block.bytes)
}
for (const block of removals) {
  await blocks.delete(block.cid)
}
