Addresses review feedback on PR #77: `getField` rescanned the whole buffer on every call, giving O(fields × len) decode. Parse the message once at `ProtoBuffer.init(data)` in a single forward pass with the library's reader, indexing values by field number; the accessors are then plain lookups (last-wins / repeated semantics fall out of wire order). Public API and wire behaviour are unchanged. The full type-driven `Protobuf.encode/decode` API is intentionally not used here: it cannot express the backward-compatible causal-history decode (field 3 is repeated HistoryEntry now, repeated bare-string IDs in legacy messages), and its default-value omission would drop the always-written empty fields the strict decoder requires (e.g. empty `content` on sync messages), breaking compatibility with peers on the current wire format.

nim-sds
Nim implementation of the e2e reliability protocol.
Prerequisites
- Nix package manager
Quick start
git clone https://github.com/logos-messaging/nim-sds.git
cd nim-sds
# Build the shared library
nix build '.#libsds'
# Run tests
nix develop --command nimble test
Building
Desktop
nix build --print-out-paths '.#libsds'
Android
nix build --print-out-paths '.#libsds-android-arm64'
nix build --print-out-paths '.#libsds-android-amd64'
nix build --print-out-paths '.#libsds-android-x86'
nix build --print-out-paths '.#libsds-android-arm'
iOS
nix build --print-out-paths '.#libsds-ios'
Development shell
Enter the dev shell:
nix develop
Build using nimble tasks:
# Dynamic library (auto-detects OS)
nimble libsdsDynamicMac # macOS
nimble libsdsDynamicLinux # Linux
nimble libsdsDynamicWindows # Windows
# Static library
nimble libsdsStaticMac # macOS
nimble libsdsStaticLinux # Linux
nimble libsdsStaticWindows # Windows
Run tests:
nimble test
The built library is output to build/.
Android (without Nix)
Download the latest Android NDK:
cd ~
wget https://dl.google.com/android/repository/android-ndk-r27c-linux.zip
unzip android-ndk-r27c-linux.zip
Add to ~/.bashrc:
export ANDROID_NDK_ROOT=$HOME/android-ndk-r27c
export PATH=$ANDROID_NDK_ROOT/toolchains/llvm/prebuilt/linux-x86_64/bin:$PATH
Then build:
ARCH=arm64 nimble libsdsAndroid
| Architecture | Command |
|---|---|
| arm64 | ARCH=arm64 nimble libsdsAndroid |
| amd64 | ARCH=amd64 nimble libsdsAndroid |
| x86 | ARCH=x86 nimble libsdsAndroid |
The library is output to build/libsds.so.
Dependency management
Dependencies are managed by Nimble and pinned via nimble.lock.
To set up dependencies locally:
nimble setup -l
To update dependencies:
nimble lock
After updating nimble.lock, the Nix outputHash in nix/deps.nix must be recalculated
by running nix build and updating the hash from the error output.
