[][src]Crate salsa

The salsa crate is a crate for incremental recomputation. It permits you to define a "database" of queries with both inputs and values derived from those inputs; as you set the inputs, you can re-execute the derived queries and it will try to re-use results from previous invocations as appropriate.

Modules

debug

Debugging APIs: these are meant for use when unit-testing or debugging your application but aren't ordinarily needed.

Structs

Event

The Event struct identifies various notable things that can occur during salsa execution. Instances of this struct are given to salsa_event.

InternId

The "raw-id" is used for interned keys in salsa -- it is basically a newtype'd u32. Typically, it is wrapped in a type of your own devising. For more information about interned keys, see the interned key RFC.

QueryTable

Return value from [the query method] on Database. Gives access to various less common operations on queries.

QueryTableMut

Return value from the query_mut method on Database. Gives access to the set method, notably, that is used to set the value of an input query.

Runtime

The salsa runtime stores the storage for all queries as well as tracking the query stack and dependencies between cycles.

RuntimeId

A unique identifier for a particular runtime. Each time you create a snapshot, a fresh RuntimeId is generated. Once a snapshot is complete, its RuntimeId may potentially be re-used.

Snapshot

Simple wrapper struct that takes ownership of a database DB and only gives &self access to it. See the snapshot method for more details.

SweepStrategy

The sweep strategy controls what data we will keep/discard when we do a GC-sweep. The default (SweepStrategy::default) is a no-op, use SweepStrategy::discard_outdated constructor or discard_* and sweep_* builder functions to construct useful strategies.

Enums

EventKind

An enum identifying the various kinds of events that can occur.

Traits

Database

The base trait which your "query context" must implement. Gives access to the salsa runtime, which you must embed into your query context (along with whatever other state you may require).

InternKey

Trait implemented for the "key" that results from a #[salsa::intern] query. This is basically meant to be a "newtype"'d u32.

ParallelDatabase

Indicates a database that also supports parallel query evaluation. All of Salsa's base query support is capable of parallel execution, but for it to work, your query key/value types must also be Send, as must any additional data in your database.

Query

Trait implements by all of the "special types" associated with each of your queries.
