Building an FST

To build an FST, create a new builder using the New() method. This method takes an io.Writer as an argument. As the FST is being built, data will be streamed to the writer as soon as possible. With this builder you MUST insert keys in lexicographic order. Inserting keys out of order will result in an error. After inserting the last key into the builder, you MUST call Close() on the builder. This will flush all remaining data to the underlying writer.

In memory:

  var buf bytes.Buffer
  builder, err := vellum.New(&buf, nil)
  if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
  }

To disk:

  f, err := os.Create("/tmp/vellum.fst")
  if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
  }
  builder, err := vellum.New(f, nil)
  if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
  }

MUST insert keys in lexicographic order:

err = builder.Insert([]byte("cat"), 1)
if err != nil {
  log.Fatal(err)
}

err = builder.Insert([]byte("dog"), 2)
if err != nil {
  log.Fatal(err)
}

err = builder.Insert([]byte("fish"), 3)
if err != nil {
  log.Fatal(err)
}

err = builder.Close()
if err != nil {
  log.Fatal(err)
}

Using an FST

After closing the builder, the data can be used to instantiate an FST. If the data was written to disk, you can use the Open()method to mmap the file. If the data is already in memory, or you wish to load/mmap the data yourself, you can instantiate the FST with the Load() method.

Load in memory:

  fst, err := vellum.Load(buf.Bytes())
  if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
  }

Open from disk:

  fst, err := vellum.Open("/tmp/vellum.fst")
  if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
  }

Get key/value:

  val, exists, err = fst.Get([]byte("dog"))
  if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
  }
  if exists {
    fmt.Printf("contains dog with val: %d\n", val)
  } else {
    fmt.Printf("does not contain dog")
  }

Iterate key/values:

  itr, err := fst.Iterator(startKeyInclusive, endKeyExclusive)
  for err == nil {
    key, val := itr.Current()
    fmt.Printf("contains key: %s val: %d", key, val)
    err = itr.Next()
  }
  if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
  }

How does the FST get built?

A full example of the implementation is beyond the scope of this README, but let‘s consider a small example where we want to insert 3 key/value pairs.

First we insert "are" with the value 4.

Next, we insert "ate" with the value 2.

Notice how the values associated with the transitions were adjusted so that by summing them while traversing we still get the expected value.

At this point, we see that state 5 looks like state 3, and state 4 looks like state 2. But, we cannot yet combine them because future inserts could change this.

Now, we insert "see" with value 3. Once it has been added, we now know that states 5 and 4 can longer change. Since they are identical to 3 and 2, we replace them.

Again, we see that states 7 and 8 appear to be identical to 2 and 3.

Having inserted our last key, we call Close() on the builder.

Now, states 7 and 8 can safely be replaced with 2 and 3.
