Struct MetaIndex 

pub struct MetaIndex { /* private fields */ }

A decoded META_MODULE section, held sorted by (key, relative_path).

Every query returns entry refs — borrows into this index — so a caller reads the index, decides, and only then extracts the one archive entry it wants.

Implementations

impl MetaIndex

pub fn from_rows(rows: Vec<MetaEntry>) -> Self

Build from rows, restoring the on-disk sort. Public so a caller can query a table it just built without a round-trip through a file.

pub fn len(&self) -> usize

pub fn is_empty(&self) -> bool

true when the section is present but records nothing. This is NOT the same as the archive having no section — see ArchiveMeta.

pub fn iter(&self) -> Iter<'_, MetaEntry>

Every row, in on-disk order.

pub fn find_by_key(&self, key: &str) -> &[MetaEntry]

All rows carrying exactly key, entry-scoped and archive-scoped alike.

A binary-searched range, not a scan: rows are stored key-major, so this is O(log n) to locate plus O(hits) to hand back.

pub fn find_by_prefix(&self, prefix: &str) -> &[MetaEntry]

All rows whose key starts with prefix — also a contiguous range, for the same reason. An empty prefix matches everything.

pub fn archive_value(&self, key: &str) -> Option<&MetaValue>

The archive-level value for key, if one was recorded.

pub fn keys(&self) -> Vec<&str>

Distinct keys, in sorted order.

pub fn to_table(&self) -> MetaTable

Back to an owned writer-side table — for re-sealing an archive without losing what it already recorded.
