About

Bloom filters can very quickly answer variations on the Yes/No question “is this item in the set?”, like “have I seen this item before?”

While bloom filters can give false positives, they cannot give false negatives. When

Install

// NPM
npm install --save @polkajs/bloom-filter
// YARN
yarn add @polkajs/bloom-filter

Use

const Bloom = require('@polkajs/bloom-filter').default;

let bloom = new Bloom(16, 8); // 16 byte length, assuming max 8 inputs
B.add("cat");
B.add("parrot");
B.add("monkey");

console.log(B);
// Bloom {
//   bitmapBits: 128,
//   k: 2,
//   bitmap: <Buffer 00 00 80 00 00 00 08 00 00 20 01 00 88 00 00 00>,
//   numHashes: 8,
//   hashFunc: [Function]
// }

let dog = B.inSet("dog");
let cat = B.inSet("cat");

console.log("is 'dog' in the set?", dog);
// false
console.log("is 'cat' in the set?", cat);
// true
console.log(B.toString());
// 00008000000008000020010088000000

API

new

create a new bloom

new Bloom(size: number, numHashes: number, hashFunc?: Function)
  • size: number of bytes in bloom map
  • numHashes: max number of inputs
  • hashFun: [OPTIONAL] replace the murmurhash3 algorithm

add

add a new input

bloom.add(data: string)
  • data: input string to be mapped

inSet

check if a value exists in the bloom filter set

bloom.inset(data: string): bool
  • data: input string to be checked

toString

hexadecimal string of the current mapping of inputs

bloom.toString(): string

extendBloom

takes

bloom.extendBloom(b: Bloom): Bloom
  • b bloom filter to extend from
