Defines the core Holochain workflows

Modules

Include nice string encoding methods and From impls

HoloHash Error Type.

Defines the prefixes for the various HashTypes, as well as the traits which unify them

Manages the spawning of tasks which process the various work queues in the system, as well as notifying subsequent queue processors to pick up the work that was left off.

A Ribosome is a structure which knows how to execute hApp code.

Workflows are the core building block of Holochain functionality.

Macros

Helper for ensuring the the proper number of bytes is used in various situations

A default HashableContent implementation, suitable for content which is already TryInto, and uses a PrimitiveHashType

Structs

A newtype for a collection of EntryHashes, needed for some wasm return types.

A HoloHash contains a vector of 36 bytes representing a 32-byte blake2b hash plus 4 bytes representing a DHT location. It also contains a zero-sized type which specifies what it is a hash of.

A wrapper around HoloHash that Serializes into a base64 string rather than a raw byte array.

Represents some piece of content along with its hash representation, so that hashes need not be calculated multiple times. Provides an easy constructor which consumes the content.

Allows you to send an op to the incoming_dht_ops_workflow if you found it on the network and were supposed to be holding it.

A microsecond-precision UTC timestamp for use in Holochain’s headers.

Enums

HashableContent can be expressed as “content”, or “prehashed”, which affects how a HoloHashed type will be constructed from it.

Constants

Length of the core bytes (32)

Length of the full HoloHash bytes (39 = 3 + 32 + 4)

Length of the location bytes (4)

Length of the prefix bytes (3)

Length of the core bytes + the loc bytes (36 = 32 + 4), i.e. everything except the type prefix

16mb limit on Entries due to websocket limits. Consider splitting large entries up.

The maximum size to hash synchronously. Anything larger than this will take too long to hash within a single tokio context

1kb limit on LinkTags. Tags are used as keys to the database to allow fast lookup so they should be small.

Traits

Anything which has an owned HoloHashOf.

Every HoloHash is generic over HashType. Additionally, every HashableContent has an associated HashType. The HashType is the glue that binds together HashableContent with its hash.

Any implementor of HashableContent may be used in a HoloHashed to pair data with its HoloHash representation. It also has an associated HashType.

Adds convenience methods for constructing HoloHash and HoloHashed from some HashableContent

A PrimitiveHashType is one with a multihash prefix. In contrast, a non-primitive hash type could be one of several primitive types, e.g. an AnyDhtHash can represent one of three primitive types.

Functions

Verify the author key was valid at the time of signing with dpki TODO: This is just a stub until we have dpki.

If we are not holding this entry then retrieve any element at this EntryHash and send it as a StoreEntry DhtOp to our incoming_dht_ops_workflow.

If we are not holding this header then retrieve it and send it as a RegisterAddLink DhtOp to our incoming_dht_ops_workflow.

If we are not holding this header then retrieve it and send it as a RegisterAgentActivity DhtOp to our incoming_dht_ops_workflow.

If we are not holding this header then retrieve it and send it as a StoreElement DhtOp to our incoming_dht_ops_workflow.

If we are not holding this header then retrieve it and send it as a StoreEntry DhtOp to our incoming_dht_ops_workflow.

Check the AppEntryType is valid for the zome. Check the EntryDefId and ZomeId are in range.

Check if there are other headers at this sequence number

Verify that the signature on a preflight request is valid.

Verify all the countersigning session data together.

Verify the countersigning session contains the specified header.

Check the headers entry hash matches the hash of the entry

Check the entry size is under the MAX_ENTRY_SIZE

Check the entry variant matches the variant in the headers entry type

Check the header should have an entry. Is either a Create or Update

Check the app entry type isn’t private for store entry

Check that previous header makes sense for this header. If not Dna then cannot be root of chain and must have previous header

Check the previous header is one less than the current

Check previous header timestamp is before this header

Placeholder for future spam check. Check header timestamps don’t exceed MAX_PUBLISH_FREQUENCY

Check the link tag size is under the MAX_TAG_SIZE

Check a Update’s entry type is the same for original and new entry.

Check that Dna headers are only added to empty source chains
