* Activate `LedgerRef` wrapper for `AccountsCache` details: `accounts_cache.nim` methods are indirectly processed by the wrapper methods from `ledger.nim`. This works for all sources except `test_state_db.nim` where the source `accounts_cache.nim` is included (rather than imported) in order to access objects privy to the very source. * Provide facility to switch to a preselected `LedgerRef` type details: Can be set as suggestion when initialising `CommonRef` * Update `CoreDb` test suite for better time tracking details: + Allow time logging by pre-defined block intervals + Print `CoreDb`/`Ledger`profiling results (if enabled)
Core database replacement wrapper object
This wrapper replaces the TrieDatabaseRef and its derivatives by the new object CoreDbRef.
Relations to current TrieDatabaseRef implementation
Here are some incomplete translations for objects and constructors.
Object types:
| Legacy notation | CoreDbRef based replacement |
|---|---|
| ChainDB | (don't use/avoid) |
| ChainDbRef | CoreDbRef |
| TrieDatabaseRef | CoreDbKvtRef |
| HexaryTrie | CoreDbMptRef |
| SecureHexaryTrie | CoreDbPhkRef |
| DbTransaction | CoreDbTxRef |
| TransactionID | CoreDbTxID |
Constructors:
| Legacy notation | CoreDbRef based replacement |
|---|---|
| trieDB newChainDB("..") | newCoreDbRef(LegacyDbPersistent,"..") |
| newMemoryDB() | newCoreDbRef(LegacyDbMemory) |
| -- | |
| initHexaryTrie(db,..) | db.mpt(..) (no pruning) |
| db.mptPrune(..) (w/pruning true/false) | |
| -- | |
| initSecureHexaryTrie(db,..) | db.phk(..) (no pruning) |
| db.phkPrune(..) (w/pruning true/false) | |
| -- | |
| newCaptureDB(db,memDB) | db.capture() (see below) |
Usage of the replacement wrapper
Objects pedigree:
CoreDbRef -- base descriptor
| | | |
| | | +-- CoreDbMptRef -- hexary trie instance
| | | | : :
| | | +-- CoreDbMptRef -- hexary trie instance
| | |
| | |
| | +---- CoreDbPhkRef -- pre-hashed key hexary trie instance
| | | : :
| | +---- CoreDbPhkRef -- pre-hashed key hexary trie instance
| |
| |
| +------ CoreDbKvtRef -- single static key-value table
|
|
+-------- CoreDbCaptRef -- tracer support descriptor
Instantiating standard database object descriptors works as follows:
let
db = newCoreDbRef(..) # new base descriptor
mpt = db.mpt(..) # hexary trie/Merkle Patricia Tree
phk = db.phk(..) # pre-hashed key hexary trie/MPT
kvt = db.kvt # key-value table
Tracer support setup by hiding the current CoreDbRef behind a replacement:
let
capture = db.capture()
db = capture.recorder # use the recorder in place of db
...
for key,value in capture.recorder.kvt:
... # process recorded data
