Python implementation of the Ethereum Trie structure

Project description

$ pip install trie

Warning: This is an early release and is likely to contain bugs as well as breaking API changes.

This library and repository was previously located at https://github.com/pipermerriam/py-trie. It was transferred to the Ethereum foundation github in November 2017 and renamed to py-trie.

Installation

pip install trie

Development

pip install -e . -r requirements-dev.txt

Running the tests

You can run the tests with:

py.test tests

Or you can install tox to run the full test suite.

Releasing

Pandoc is required for transforming the markdown README to the proper format to render correctly on pypi.

For Debian-like systems:

apt install pandoc

Or on OSX:

brew install pandoc

To release a new version:

bumpversion $$VERSION_PART_TO_BUMP$$
git push && git push --tags
make release

How to bumpversion

The version format for this repo is {major}.{minor}.{patch} for stable, and {major}.{minor}.{patch}-{stage}.{devnum} for unstable (stage can be alpha or beta).

To issue the next version in line, use bumpversion and specify which part to bump, like bumpversion minor or bumpversion devnum.

If you are in a beta version, bumpversion stage will switch to a stable.

To issue an unstable version when the current version is stable, specify the new version explicitly, like bumpversion --new-version 4.0.0-alpha.1 devnum

Usage

>>> from trie import Trie
>>> t = HexaryTrie(db={})
>>> t.root_hash
b'V\xe8\x1f\x17\x1b\xccU\xa6\xff\x83E\xe6\x92\xc0\xf8n[H\xe0\x1b\x99l\xad\xc0\x01b/\xb5\xe3c\xb4!'
>>> t.set(b'my-key', b'some-value')
>>> t.get(b'my-key')
b'some-value'
>>> t.exists(b'another-key')
False
>>> t.set(b'another-key', b'another-value')
>>> t.exists(b'another-key')
True
>>> t.delete(b'another-key')
>>> t.exists(b'another-key')
False

You can also use it like a dictionary.

>>> from trie import HexaryTrie
>>> t = HexaryTrie(db={})
>>> t.root_hash
b'V\xe8\x1f\x17\x1b\xccU\xa6\xff\x83E\xe6\x92\xc0\xf8n[H\xe0\x1b\x99l\xad\xc0\x01b/\xb5\xe3c\xb4!'
>>> t[b'my-key'] = b'some-value'
>>> t[b'my-key']
b'some-value'
>>> b'another-key' in t
False
>>> t[b'another-key']  = b'another-value'
>>> b'another-key' in t
True
>>> del t[b'another-key']
>>> b'another-key' in t
False

BinaryTrie branch and witness helper functions

>>> from trie import BinaryTrie
>>> from trie.branches import (
>>>     check_if_branch_exist,
>>>     get_branch,
>>>     if_branch_valid,
>>>     get_witness_for_key_prefix,
>>> )
>>> t = BinaryTrie(db={})
>>> t.root_hash
b"\xc5\xd2F\x01\x86\xf7#<\x92~}\xb2\xdc\xc7\x03\xc0\xe5\x00\xb6S\xca\x82';{\xfa\xd8\x04]\x85\xa4p"
>>> t.set(b'key1', b'value1')
>>> t.set(b'key2', b'value2')

Now Trie looks like this:

    root --->  (kvnode, *common key prefix*)
                         |
                         |
                         |
                    (branchnode)
                     /         \
                    /           \
                   /             \
(kvnode, *remain kepath*)(kvnode, *remain kepath*)
            |                           |
            |                           |
            |                           |
  (leafnode, b'value1')       (leafnode, b'value2')
>>> # check_if_branch_exist function
>>> check_if_branch_exist(t.db, t.root_hash, b'key')
True
>>> check_if_branch_exist(t.db, t.root_hash, b'key1')
True
>>> check_if_branch_exist(t.db, t.root_hash, b'ken')
False
>>> check_if_branch_exist(t.db, t.root_hash, b'key123')

>>> # get_branch function

Node started with b'\x00', b'\x01' and b'\x02' are kvnode, branchnode and leafnode respectively.
