Rust Persistent Data Structures

Rust Persistent Data Structures provides fully persistent data structures with structural sharing.

Setup

To use rpds add the following to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
rpds = "<version>"

Additionally, add this to your crate root:

extern crate rpds;

Enable serialization

To enable serialization (using serde) you need to enable the serde feature in rpds. To do so change the rpds dependency in Cargo.toml to

[dependencies]
rpds = { version = "<version>", features = ["serde"] }

Data Structures

This crate implements the following data structures:

1. List
2. Vector
3. Stack
4. Queue
5. HashTrieMap
6. HashTrieSet
7. RedBlackTreeMap
8. RedBlackTreeSet

List

Your classic functional list.

Example

use rpds::List;

let list = List::new().push_front("list");

assert_eq!(list.first(), Some(&"list"));

let a_list = list.push_front("a");

assert_eq!(a_list.first(), Some(&"a"));

let list_dropped = a_list.drop_first().unwrap();

assert_eq!(list_dropped, list);

Vector

A sequence that can be indexed. The implementation is described in Understanding Persistent Vector Part 1 and Understanding Persistent Vector Part 2.

Example

use rpds::Vector;

let vector = Vector::new()
    .push_back("I'm")
    .push_back("a")
    .push_back("vector");

assert_eq!(vector[1], "a");

let screaming_vector = vector
    .drop_last().unwrap()
    .push_back("VECTOR!!!");

assert_eq!(screaming_vector[2], "VECTOR!!!");

Stack

A LIFO (last in, first out) data structure. This is just a List in disguise.

Example

use rpds::Stack;

let stack = Stack::new().push("stack");

assert_eq!(stack.peek(), Some(&"stack"));

let a_stack = stack.push("a");

assert_eq!(a_stack.peek(), Some(&"a"));

let stack_popped = a_stack.pop().unwrap();

assert_eq!(stack_popped, stack);

Queue

A FIFO (first in, first out) data structure.

Example

use rpds::Queue;

let queue = Queue::new()
    .enqueue("um")
    .enqueue("dois")
    .enqueue("tres");

assert_eq!(queue.peek(), Some(&"um"));

let queue_dequeued = queue.dequeue().unwrap();

assert_eq!(queue_dequeued.peek(), Some(&"dois"));

HashTrieMap

A map implemented with a hash array mapped trie. See Ideal Hash Trees for details.

Example

use rpds::HashTrieMap;

let map_en = HashTrieMap::new()
    .insert(0, "zero")
    .insert(1, "one");

assert_eq!(map_en.get(&1), Some(&"one"));

let map_pt = map_en
    .insert(1, "um")
    .insert(2, "dois");

assert_eq!(map_pt.get(&2), Some(&"dois"));

let map_pt_binary = map_pt.remove(&2);

assert_eq!(map_pt_binary.get(&2), None);

HashTrieSet

A set implemented with a HashTrieMap.

Example

use rpds::HashTrieSet;

let set = HashTrieSet::new()
    .insert("zero")
    .insert("one");

assert!(set.contains(&"one"));

let set_extended = set.insert("two");

assert!(set_extended.contains(&"two"));

let set_positive = set_extended.remove(&"zero");

assert!(!set_positive.contains(&"zero"));

RedBlackTreeMap

A map implemented with a red-black tree.

Example

use rpds::RedBlackTreeMap;

let map_en = RedBlackTreeMap::new()
    .insert(0, "zero")
    .insert(1, "one");

assert_eq!(map_en.get(&1), Some(&"one"));

let map_pt = map_en
    .insert(1, "um")
    .insert(2, "dois");

assert_eq!(map_pt.get(&2), Some(&"dois"));

let map_pt_binary = map_pt.remove(&2);

assert_eq!(map_pt_binary.get(&2), None);

assert_eq!(map_pt_binary.first(), Some((&0, &"zero")));

RedBlackTreeSet

A set implemented with a RedBlackTreeMap.

Example

use rpds::RedBlackTreeSet;

let set = RedBlackTreeSet::new()
    .insert("zero")
    .insert("one");

assert!(set.contains(&"one"));

let set_extended = set.insert("two");

assert!(set_extended.contains(&"two"));

let set_positive = set_extended.remove(&"zero");

assert!(!set_positive.contains(&"zero"));

assert_eq!(set_positive.first(), Some(&"one"));
