//! # Efficient BLAKE3 based verified streaming
//!
//! This crate is similar to the [bao crate](https://crates.io/crates/bao), but
//! takes a slightly different approach.
//!
//! The core struct is [BaoTree], which describes the geometry of the tree and
//! various ways to traverse it. An individual tree node is identified by
//! [TreeNode], which is just a newtype wrapper for an u64.
//!
//! [TreeNode] provides various helpers to e.g. get the offset of a node in
//! different traversal orders.
//!
//! There are newtypes for the different kinds of integers used in the
//! tree:
//! [ChunkNum] is an u64 number of chunks,
//! [TreeNode] is an u64 tree node identifier,
//! and [BlockSize] is the log base 2 of the chunk group size.
//!
//! All this is then used in the [io] module to implement the actual io, both
//! [synchronous](io::sync) and [asynchronous](io::tokio).
//!
//! # Basic usage
//!
//! The basic workflow is like this: you have some existing data, for which
//! you want to enable verified streaming. This data can either be in memory,
//! in a file, or even a remote resource such as an HTTP server.
//!
//! ## Outboard creation
//!
//! You create an outboard using the [CreateOutboard](io::sync::CreateOutboard)
//! trait. It has functions to [create](io::sync::CreateOutboard::create) an
//! outboard from scratch or to [initialize](io::sync::CreateOutboard::init_from)
//! data and root hash from existing data.
//!
//! ## Serving requests
//!
//! You serve streaming requests by using the
//! [encode_ranges](io::sync::encode_ranges) or
//! [encode_ranges_validated](io::sync::encode_ranges_validated) functions
//! in the sync or async io module. For this you need data and a matching
//! outboard.
//!
//! The difference between the two functions is that the validated version
//! will check the hash of each chunk against the bao tree encoded in the
//! outboard, so you will detect data corruption before sending out data
//! to the requester. When using the unvalidated version, you might send out
//! corrupted data without ever noticing and earn a bad reputation.
//!
//! Due to the speed of the blake3 hash function, validation is not a
//! significant performance overhead compared to network operations and
//! encryption.
//!
//! The requester will send a set of chunk ranges they are interested in.
//! To compute chunk ranges from byte ranges, there is a helper function
//! [round_up_to_chunks](io::round_up_to_chunks) that takes a byte range and
//! rounds up to chunk ranges.
//!
//! If you just want to stream the entire blob, you can use [ChunkRanges::all]
//! as the range.
//!
//! ## Processing requests
//!
//! You process requests by using the [decode_ranges](io::sync::decode_ranges)
//! function in the sync or async io module. This function requires prior
//! knowledge of the tree geometry (total data size and block size). A common
//! way to get this information is to have the block size as a common parameter
//! of both sides, and send the total data size as a prefix of the encoded data.
//! E.g. the original bao crate uses a little endian u64 as the prefix.
//!
//! This function will perform validation in any case, there is no variant
//! that skips validation since that would defeat the purpose of verified
//! streaming.
//!
//! ## Simple end to end example
//!
//! ```no_run
//! use std::io;
//!
//! use bao_tree::{
//!     io::{
//!         outboard::PreOrderOutboard,
//!         round_up_to_chunks,
//!         sync::{decode_ranges, encode_ranges_validated, valid_ranges, CreateOutboard},
//!     },
//!     BlockSize, ByteRanges, ChunkRanges,
//! };
//!
//! /// Use a block size of 16 KiB, a good default for most cases
//! const BLOCK_SIZE: BlockSize = BlockSize::from_chunk_log(4);
//!
//! # fn main() -> io::Result<()> {
//! // The file we want to serve
//! let file = std::fs::File::open("video.mp4")?;
//! // Create an outboard for the file, using the current size
//! let ob = PreOrderOutboard::<Vec<u8>>::create(&file, BLOCK_SIZE)?;
//! // Encode the first 100000 bytes of the file
//! let ranges = ByteRanges::from(0..100000);
//! let ranges = round_up_to_chunks(&ranges);
//! // Stream of data to client. Needs to implement `io::Write`. We just use a vec here.
//! let mut to_client = vec![];
//! encode_ranges_validated(&file, &ob, &ranges, &mut to_client)?;
//!
//! // Stream of data from client. Needs to implement `io::Read`. We just wrap the vec in a cursor.
//! let from_server = io::Cursor::new(to_client);
//! let root = ob.root;
//! let tree = ob.tree;
//!
//! // Decode the encoded data into a file
//! let mut decoded = std::fs::File::create("copy.mp4")?;
//! let mut ob = PreOrderOutboard {
//!     tree,
//!     root,
//!     data: vec![],
//! };
//! decode_ranges(from_server, &ranges, &mut decoded, &mut ob)?;
//!
//! // the first 100000 bytes of the file should now be in `decoded`
//! // in addition, the required part of the tree to validate that the data is
//! // correct are in `ob.data`
//!
//! // Print the valid ranges of the file
//! for range in valid_ranges(&ob, &decoded, &ChunkRanges::all()) {
//!     println!("{:?}", range);
//! }
//! # Ok(())
//! # }
//! ```
//!
//! # Async end to end example
//!
//! The async version is very similar to the sync version, except that it needs
//! an async context. All functions that do IO are async. The file has to be
//! an [iroh_io::File], which is just a wrapper for [std::fs::File] that implements
//! async random access via the [AsyncSliceReader](iroh_io::AsyncSliceReader) trait.
//!
//! We use [futures_lite] crate, but using the normal futures crate will also work.
//!
//! ```no_run
//! use std::io;
//!
//! use bao_tree::{
//!     io::{
//!         fsm::{decode_ranges, encode_ranges_validated, valid_ranges, CreateOutboard},
//!         outboard::PreOrderOutboard,
//!         round_up_to_chunks,
//!     },
//!     BlockSize, ByteRanges, ChunkRanges,
//! };
//! use bytes::BytesMut;
//! use futures_lite::StreamExt;
//!
//! /// Use a block size of 16 KiB, a good default for most cases
//! const BLOCK_SIZE: BlockSize = BlockSize::from_chunk_log(4);
//!
//! # #[tokio::main]
//! # async fn main() -> io::Result<()> {
//! // The file we want to serve
//! let mut file = iroh_io::File::open("video.mp4".into()).await?;
//! // Create an outboard for the file, using the current size
//! let mut ob = PreOrderOutboard::<BytesMut>::create(&mut file, BLOCK_SIZE).await?;
//! // Encode the first 100000 bytes of the file
//! let ranges = ByteRanges::from(0..100000);
//! let ranges = round_up_to_chunks(&ranges);
//! // Stream of data to client. Needs to implement `io::Write`. We just use a vec here.
//! let mut to_client = Vec::new();
//! encode_ranges_validated(file, &mut ob, &ranges, &mut to_client).await?;
//!
//! // Stream of data from client. Needs to implement `io::Read`. We just wrap the vec in a cursor.
//! let from_server = io::Cursor::new(to_client.as_slice());
//! let root = ob.root;
//! let tree = ob.tree;
//!
//! // Decode the encoded data into a file
//! let mut decoded = iroh_io::File::open("copy.mp4".into()).await?;
//! let mut ob = PreOrderOutboard {
//!     tree,
//!     root,
//!     data: BytesMut::new(),
//! };
//! decode_ranges(from_server, ranges, &mut decoded, &mut ob).await?;
//!
//! // the first 100000 bytes of the file should now be in `decoded`
//! // in addition, the required part of the tree to validate that the data is
//! // correct are in `ob.data`
//!
//! // Print the valid ranges of the file
//! let ranges = ChunkRanges::all();
//! let mut stream = valid_ranges(&mut ob, &mut decoded, &ranges);
//! while let Some(range) = stream.next().await {
//!     println!("{:?}", range);
//! }
//! # Ok(())
//! # }
//! ```
//!
//! # Compatibility with the [bao crate](https://crates.io/crates/bao)
//!
//! This crate will be compatible with the bao crate, provided you do the
//! following:
//!
//! - use a block size of 1024, so no chunk groups
//! - use a little endian u64 as the prefix for the encoded data
//! - use only a single range
