* Update README
* Nimbus-main: replaced `PruneMode` options by `ChainDbMode` options
details:
For the legacy database, this changes the phrase
- `conf.pruneMode == PruneMode.Full` to the expression
+ `conf.chainDbMode == ChainDbMode.Prune`.
* Fix issues moaned about by NIM compiler
* Fix copyright year
* Aristo+RocksDB: Update backend drivers
why:
RocksDB update allows use some of the newly provided methods which
were previously implemented by using the very C backend (for the lack
of NIM methods.)
* Aristo+RocksDB: Simplify drivers wrapper
* Kvt: Update backend drivers and wrappers similar to `Aristo`
* Aristo+Kvm: Use column families for RocksDB
* Aristo+MemoryDB: Code cosmetics
* Aristo: Provide guest column family for export
why:
So `Kvt` can piggyback on `Aristo` so there avoiding to run a second
DBMS system in parallel.
* Kvt: Provide import mechanism for RoksDB guest column family
why:
So `Kvt` can piggyback on `Aristo` so there avoiding to run a second
DBMS system in parallel.
* CoreDb+Aristo: Run persistent `Kvt` DB piggybacked on `Aristo`
why:
Avoiding to run two DBMS systems in parallel.
* Fix copyright year
* Ditto
* Aristo+Kvt: Fix backend `dup()` function in api setup
why:
Backend object is subject to an inheritance cascade which was not
taken care of, before. Only the base object was duplicated.
* Kvt: Simplify DB clone/peers management
* Aristo: Simplify DB clone/peers management
* Aristo: Adjust unit test for working with memory DB only
why:
This currently causes some memory corruption persumably in the
`libc` background layer.
* CoredDb+Kvt: Simplify API for KVT
why:
Simplified storage models (was over engineered) for better performance
and code maintenance.
* CoredDb+Aristo: Simplify API for `Aristo`
why:
Only single database state needed here. Accessing a similar state will
be implemented from outside this module using a context layer. This
gives better performance and improves code maintenance.
* Fix Copyright headers
* CoreDb: Turn off API tracking
why:
CI would ot go through. Was accidentally turned on.
* Update KVT layers abstraction
details:
modelled after Aristo layers
* Simplified KVT database iterators (removed item counters)
why:
Not needed for production functions
* Simplify KVT merge function `layersCc()`
* Simplified Aristo database iterators (removed item counters)
why:
Not needed for production functions
* Update failure condition for hash labels compiler `hashify()`
why:
Node need not be rejected as long as links are on the schedule. In
that case, `redo[]` is to become `wff.base[]` at a later stage.
* Update merging layers and label update functions
why:
+ Merging a stack of layers with `layersCc()` could be simplified
+ Merging layers will optimise the reverse `kMap[]` table maps
`pAmk: label->{vid, ..}` by deleting empty mappings `label->{}` where
they are redundant.
+ Updated `layersPutLabel()` for optimising `pAmk[]` tables
* Fix debug noise in `hashify()` for perfectly normal situation
why:
Was previously considered a fixable error
* Fix test sample file names
why:
The larger test file `goerli68161.txt.gz` is already in the local
archive. So there is no need to use the smaller one from the external
repo.
* Activate `accounts_cache` module from `db/ledger`
why:
A copy of the original `accounts_cache.nim` source to be integrated
into the `Ledger` module wrapper which allows to switch between
different `accounts_cache` implementations unser tha same API.
details:
At a later state, the `db/accounts_cache.nim` wrapper will be
removed so that there is only one access to that module via
`db/ledger/accounts_cache.nim`.
* Fix copyright headers in source code
* Aristo: Provide key-value list signature calculator
detail:
Simple wrappers around `Aristo` core functionality
* Update new API for `CoreDb`
details:
+ Renamed new API functions `contains()` => `hasKey()` or `hasPath()`
which disables the `in` operator on non-boolean `contains()` functions
+ The functions `get()` and `fetch()` always return a not-found error if
there is no item, available. The new functions `getOrEmpty()` and
`mergeOrEmpty()` return an an empty `Blob` if there is no such key
found.
* Rewrite `core_apps.nim` using new API from `CoreDb`
* Use `Aristo` functionality for calculating Merkle signatures
details:
For debugging, the `VerifyAristoForMerkleRootCalc` can be set so
that `Aristo` results will be verified against the legacy versions.
* Provide general interface for Merkle signing key-value tables
details:
Export `Aristo` wrappers
* Activate `CoreDb` tests
why:
Now, API seems to be stable enough for general tests.
* Update `toHex()` usage
why:
Byteutils' `toHex()` is superior to `toSeq.mapIt(it.toHex(2)).join`
* Split `aristo_transcode` => `aristo_serialise` + `aristo_blobify`
why:
+ Different modules for different purposes
+ `aristo_serialise`: RLP encoding/decoding
+ `aristo_blobify`: Aristo database encoding/decoding
* Compacted representation of small nodes' links instead of Keccak hashes
why:
Ethereum MPTs use Keccak hashes as node links if the size of an RLP
encoded node is at least 32 bytes. Otherwise, the RLP encoded node
value is used as a pseudo node link (rather than a hash.) Such a node
is nor stored on key-value database. Rather the RLP encoded node value
is stored instead of a lode link in a parent node instead. Only for
the root hash, the top level node is always referred to by the hash.
This feature needed an abstraction of the `HashKey` object which is now
either a hash or a blob of length at most 31 bytes. This leaves two
ways of representing an empty/void `HashKey` type, either as an empty
blob of zero length, or the hash of an empty blob.
* Update `CoreDb` interface (mainly reducing logger noise)
* Fix copyright years (to make `Lint` happy)
* Rewrite remaining `AristoError` return code into `Result[void,AristoError]`
why:
Better code maintenance
* Update import sections
* Update Aristo DB paths
why:
More systematic so directory can be shared with other DB types
* More cosmetcs
* Update unit tests runners
why:
Proper handling of persistent and mem-only DB. The latter can be
consistently triggered by an empty DB path.
* Set scheduler state as part of the backend descriptor
details:
Moved type definitions `QidLayoutRef` and `QidSchedRef` to
`desc_structural.nim` so that it shares the same folder as
`desc_backend.nim`
* Automatic filter queue table initialisation in backend
details:
Scheduler can be tweaked or completely disabled
* Updated backend unit tests
details:
+ some code clean up/beautification, reads better now
+ disabled persistent filters so that there is no automated filter
management which will be implemented next
* Prettify/update unit tests source code
details:
Mostly replacing the `check()` paradigm by `xCheck()`
* Somewhat simplified backend type management
why:
Backend objects are labelled with a `BackendType` symbol where the
`BackendVoid` label is implicitly assumed for a `nil` backend object
reference.
To make it easier, a `kind()` function is used now applicable to
`nil` references as well.
* Fix DB storage layout for filter objects
why:
Need to store the filter ID with the object
* Implement reverse [] index on fifo
why:
An integer index argument on `[]` retrieves the QueueID (label) of the
fifo item while a QueueID argument on `[]` retrieves the index (so
it is inverse to the former variant).
* Provide iterator over filters as fifo
why:
This iterator goes along the cascased fifo structure (i.e. in
historical order)
* Rename FilterID => QueueID
why:
The current usage does not identify a particular filter but uses it as
storage tag to manage it on the database (to be organised in a set of
FIFOs or queues.)
* Split `aristo_filter` source into sub-files
why:
Make space for filter management API
* Store filter queue IDs in pairs on the backend
why:
Any pair will will describe a FIFO accessed by bottom/top IDs
* Reorg some source file names
why:
The "aristo_" prefix for make local/private files is tedious to
use, so removed.
* Implement filter slot scheduler
details:
Filters will be stored on the database on cascaded FIFOs. When a FIFO
queue is full, some filter items are bundled together and stored on the
next FIFO.
