litemap
litemap is a crate providing LiteMap, a highly simplistic “flat” key-value map
based off of a single sorted vector.
The goal of this crate is to provide a map that is good enough for small
sizes, and does not carry the binary size impact of HashMap
or BTreeMap.
If binary size is not a concern, std::collections::BTreeMap may be a better choice
for your use case. It behaves very similarly to LiteMap for less than 12 elements,
and upgrades itself gracefully for larger inputs.
Pluggable Backends
By default, LiteMap is backed by a Vec; however, it can be backed by any appropriate
random-access data store, giving that data store a map-like interface. See the store
module for more details.
Const construction
LiteMap supports const construction from any store that is const-constructible, such as a
static slice, via LiteMap::from_sorted_store_unchecked(). This also makes LiteMap
suitable for use with databake. See impl Bake for LiteMap for more details.
