Struct ChunkMetadata 

pub struct ChunkMetadata {
    pub source_type: String,
    pub path: Option<String>,
    pub commit: Option<String>,
    pub author: Option<String>,
    pub date: Option<String>,
    pub base_offset: usize,
    pub mtime_ns: Option<u64>,
    pub size_bytes: Option<u64>,
}

Metadata that tracks the source location for a scanned chunk.

Examples

use keyhog_core::ChunkMetadata;

let metadata = ChunkMetadata {
    source_type: "git-diff".into(),
    path: Some("src/lib.rs".into()),
    commit: Some("abc123".into()),
    author: Some("Dev".into()),
    date: Some("2026-03-26T00:00:00Z".into()),
    ..Default::default()
};

assert_eq!(metadata.source_type, "git-diff");

Fields

source_type: String

path: Option<String>

commit: Option<String>

author: Option<String>

date: Option<String>

base_offset: usize

mtime_ns: Option<u64>

File mtime in nanoseconds since UNIX epoch, when the source can surface it cheaply (filesystem walks). Optional because non-fs sources (stdin, http, git diffs) don’t have a meaningful mtime. Populated to drive the merkle-index metadata fast-path.

size_bytes: Option<u64>

File size in bytes, when known cheaply at chunk-production time. Same shape and rationale as mtime_ns.
