roaring

Official port of Roaring Bitmaps for NodeJS as a native addon.

It is interoperable with other implementations via the Roaring format. It takes advantage of AVX2 or SSE4.2 instructions on 64 bit platforms that supports it.

Roaring bitmaps are compressed bitmaps. They can be hundreds of times faster.

For a precompiled binary of this package compatible with AWS Lambda NodeJS v8.10.0, use roaring-aws.

Installation

npm install --save roaring

API

See the API documentation

See the RoaringBitmap32 class documentation

Code sample:

// npm install --save roaring
// create this file as demo.js
// type node demo.js

const RoaringBitmap32 = require('roaring/RoaringBitmap32')

const bitmap1 = new RoaringBitmap32([1, 2, 3, 4, 5])
bitmap1.addMany([100, 1000])
console.log('bitmap1.toArray():', bitmap1.toArray())

const bitmap2 = new RoaringBitmap32([3, 4, 1000])
console.log('bitmap2.toArray():', bitmap2.toArray())

const bitmap3 = new RoaringBitmap32()
console.log('bitmap1.size:', bitmap1.size)
console.log('bitmap3.has(3):', bitmap3.has(3))
bitmap3.add(3)
console.log('bitmap3.has(3):', bitmap3.has(3))

bitmap3.add(111)
bitmap3.add(544)
bitmap3.orInPlace(bitmap1)
bitmap1.runOptimize()
bitmap1.shrinkToFit()
console.log('contentToString:', bitmap3.contentToString())

console.log('bitmap3.toArray():', bitmap3.toArray())
console.log('bitmap3.maximum():', bitmap3.maximum())
console.log('bitmap3.rank(100):', bitmap3.rank(100))

const iterated = []
for (const value of bitmap3) {
  iterated.push(value)
}
console.log('iterated:', iterated)

const serialized = bitmap3.serialize(false)
console.log('serialized:', serialized.toString('base64'))
console.log('deserialized:', RoaringBitmap32.deserialize(serialized, false).toArray())

Development, local building

Clone the repository and install all the dependencies

git clone https://github.com/SalvatorePreviti/roaring-node.git

git submodule update --init --recursive

npm install

To rebuild the C++ sources

npm run recompile

After a full recomple, is possible to compile only changed files:

npm run compile

To run the unit test

npm test

To regenerate the API documentation

npm run doc

To run the performance benchmarks

npm run benchmarks

It will produce a result similar to this one:
