the logic for reading the docID from the keys
in this row relies on the keys NEVER containing
the byte separator character (0xff), this is OK
as we require that all keys be valid utf-8
however, it turns out that in the case where this
rule was violated, we would panic, because we
return nil, nil and later try to print the doc id
in some limited cases we can detect unsafe usage
in these cases, do not trip over ourselves and panic
instead return a strongly typed error upside_down.UnsafeBatchUseDetected
also, introduced Batch.Reset() to allow batch reuse
this is currently still experimental
closes#195
trying to be clever, we reused the memory allocated for the left
operand when doing partial merges
this had been tested to be safe, in general. however, the
implementation was then written such that we always reused
globally defined operands, this meant that we mutated
the operands which were intended to always represent
+1/-1
this then cascades quickly to making increment/decrement
values much larger/smaller than they should be
related to #197
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.
this introduces disk format v4
now the summary rows for a term are stored in their own
"dictionary row" format, previously the same information
was stored in special term frequency rows
this now allows us to easily iterate all the terms for a field
in sorted order (useful for many other fuzzy data structures)
at the top-level of bleve you can now browse terms within a field
using the following api on the Index interface:
FieldDict(field string) (index.FieldDict, error)
FieldDictRange(field string, startTerm []byte, endTerm []byte) (index.FieldDict, error)
FieldDictPrefix(field string, termPrefix []byte) (index.FieldDict, error)
fixes#127
this is due to forestdb auto-compaction using the provided
path as just the prefix, so if we're not careful we end
up with many stray files laying around
here, we create a sub-directory first, and just nuke the
whole subdir when we're done
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
