database
Package database provides a database for kaspad.
Overview
This package provides a database layer to store and retrieve data in a simple and efficient manner.
The current backend is ffldb, which makes use of leveldb, flat files, and strict checksums in key areas to ensure data integrity.
Implementors of additional backends are required to implement the following interfaces:
DataAccessor
This defines the common interface by which data gets accessed in a generic kaspad database. Both the Database and the Transaction interfaces (see below) implement it.
Database
This defines the interface of a database that can begin transactions and close itself.
Transaction
This defines the interface of a generic kaspad database transaction.
Note: Transactions provide data consistency over the state of the database as it was when the transaction started. There is NO guarantee that if one puts data into the transaction then it will be available to get within the same transaction.
Cursor
This iterates over database entries given some bucket.
