Previously bleve allowed you to create a memory-only index by
simply passing "" as the path argument to the New() method.
This was not clear when reading the code, and led to some
problematic error cases as well.
Now, to create a memory-only index one should use the
NewMemOnly() method. Passing "" as the path argument
to the New() method will now return os.ErrInvalid.
Advanced users calling NewUsing() can create disk-based or
memory-only indexes, but the change here is that pass ""
as the path argument no longer defaults you into getting
a memory-only index. Instead, the KV store is selected
manually, just as it is for the disk-based solutions.
Here is an example use of the NewUsing() method to create
a memory-only index:
NewUsing("", indexMapping, Config.DefaultIndexType,
Config.DefaultMemKVStore, nil)
Config.DefaultMemKVStore is just a new default value
added to the configuration, it currently points to
gtreap.Name (which could have been used directly
instead for more control)

Two issues:
- Seeking before i.start and iterating returned keys before i.start
- Seeking after the store last key did not invalidate the iterator and
could cause infinite loops.
Use this option when rebuilding indexes from scratch. In my small case
(~17000 json documents), it reduces indexing from 520s to 250s.
I did not add any test, short of forced indexing termination it only
has performance effects, which are hard to test. And unknown options are
currently ignored.
Issue #240
in boltdb, long readers *MAY* block a writer. in particular if
the write requires additional allocation, it must acquire a lock
already held by the reader. in general this is not a problem
for bleve (though it can affect performance in some cases), but
it is a problem for the reader isolation test. this commit
adds a hack to try and avoid the need for additional allocation
closes#208
refactor to share code in emulated batch
refactor to share code in emulated merge
refactor index kvstore benchmarks to share more code
refactor index kvstore benchmarks to be more repeatable
improvements uncovered some issues with how k/v data was copied
or not. to address this, kv abstraction layer now lets impl
specify if the bytes returned are safe to use after a reader
(or writer since writers are also readers) are closed
See index/store/KVReader - BytesSafeAfterClose() bool
false is the safe value if you're not sure
it will cause index impls to copy the data
Some kv impls already have created a copy a the C-api barrier
in which case they can safely return true.
Overall this yields ~25% speedup for searches with leveldb.
It yields ~10% speedup for boltdb.
Returning stored fields is now slower with boltdb, as previously
we were returning unsafe bytes.
more things can return error now
in a couple of places we had to swallow errors because they didn't
fit the existing API. in these case and proactively in a few
others we now return error as well.
also the batch API has been updated to allow performing
set/delete internal within the batch
In the index/store package
introduce KVReader
creates snapshot
all read operations consistent from this snapshot
must close to release
introduce KVWriter
only one writer active
access to all operations
allows for consisten read-modify-write
must close to release
introduce AssociativeMerge operation on batch
allows efficient read-modify-write
for associative operations
used to consolidate updates to the term summary rows
saves 1 set and 1 get op per shared instance of term in field
In the index package
introduced an IndexReader
exposes a consisten snapshot of the index for searching
At top level
All searches now operate on a consisten snapshot of the index
