k-bucket-sync Travis CI

Synchronous and efficient implementation of k-bucket from Kademlia DHT.

Simplified, synchronous, arguably more efficient implementation based on https://github.com/tristanls/k-bucket and https://github.com/PolkaJS/dht-bucket.

Tests were taken from https://github.com/tristanls/k-bucket/tree/master/test (Copyright (c) Tristan Slominski, MIT License) and modified according to new API.

How to install

npm install k-bucket-sync

How to use

Node.js:

var k_bucket_sync = require('k-bucket-sync')

// Do stuff

Browser:

requirejs(['k-bucket-sync'], function (k_bucket_sync) {
    // Do stuff
})

API

k_bucket_sync(id : ArrayBufferView, bucket_size : number) : k_bucket_sync

Constructor, creates k-bucket for specified local ID and bucket size (from Kademlia design).

k_bucket_sync.set(id : ArrayBufferView, data = null, on_full = null : Function) : boolean

Add new node with specified ID and associated data or move node to the most recently used and update data if node already exists.

Returns true if succeeded, and false if there is no more space in the bucket (in this case optional on_full callback will be called with an array of node IDs in that bucket).

k_bucket_sync.get_all() : Array

Get an array IDs of all of the nodes previously added in the same order as they appear in buckets tree.

k_bucket_sync.get_data(id : ArrayBufferView) : *

Get associated data for previously added node.

k_bucket_sync.has(id : ArrayBufferView) : boolean

Check whether id node exists in k-bucket.

k_bucket_sync.del(id : ArrayBufferView)

Delete previously added node.

k_bucket_sync.count() : number

Get total number of nodes previously added.

k_bucket_sync.closest(id : ArrayBufferView, number = Infinity : number) : ArrayBufferView[]

Get number IDs of nodes closest to id.

Feel free to create issues and send pull requests (for big changes create an issue first and link it from the PR), they are highly appreciated!

When reading LiveScript code make sure to configure 1 tab to be 4 spaces (GitHub uses 8 by default), otherwise code might be hard to read.
