Experimental D Roaring Bitmaps Library

Roaring Bitmaps are compressed bit arrays which can store a huge amount of bits in a space efficient manner. The bitmap is organized so that adding/removing bits is very fast and don't require unpacking the whole bitmap. You can use bit arrays for efficient set operations.

Check out Pilosa for an open source distributed index which uses roaring bitmaps.

This library wraps CRoaring.

Limitations

• Bitmap size is (currently) limited to uint.max, which is 2^^32 - 1. This is a limitation of CRoaring. See: https://github.com/RoaringBitmap/CRoaring/issues/1

Requirements

• A recent D compiler. Tested with DMD v2.079.0, LDC 1.8.0 and GDC v2.068.2_gcc6.
• C compiler with C11 support.
• Tested on Linux, FreeBSD, MacOS and Windows (only with 64bit).

Install

Using DUB

Add roaring to your DUB dependencies. E.g.:

{
    "name": "roar",
    "description": "A minimal D application.",
    "dependencies": {
        "roaring": {
            "version": "0.1.8"
        }
    }
}

Without DUB

Assuming you've built the library and $DROARING_HOME points to the DRoaring directory:

dmd your_source.d $DROARING_HOME/ext/roaring.o -L-L$DROARING_HOME -L-lroaring -I$DROARING_HOME/source

Example

void main()
{
    import std.stdio : writefln, writeln;
    import roaring.roaring : Bitmap, bitmapOf;

    // create a new roaring bitmap instance
    auto r1 = new Bitmap;

    // add some bits to the bitmap
    r1.add(5);

    // create from an array
    auto ra = bitmapOf([1, 2, 3]);

    // create from a range
    import std.range : iota;
    assert(bitmapOf(0, 1, 2, 3) == bitmapOf(4.iota));
    
    // create a new roaring bitmap instance from some numbers
    auto r2 = bitmapOf(1, 3, 5, 15);

    // check whether a value is contained
    assert(r2.contains(5));
    assert(5 in r2); // r2 contains 5
    assert(99 !in r2); // r2 does not contain 99

    // get minimum and maximum values in a bitmap
    assert(r2.minimum == 1);
    assert(r2.maximum == 15);

    // remove a value from the bitmap
    r2.remove(5);
    assert(!r2.contains(5));
    
    // compute how many bits there are:
    assert(3 == r2.length);

    // check whether a bitmap is subset of another
    const sub = bitmapOf(1, 5);
    const sup = bitmapOf(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6);
    assert(sub in sup);

    // iterate on a bitmap
    const r3 = bitmapOf(1, 5, 10, 20);
    ulong s = 0;
    foreach (bit; r3) {
        s += bit;
    }
    assert(s == 36);

    // iterate on a bitmap and index
    foreach(i, bit; r3) {
        writefln("%d: %d", i, bit);
    }

    import roaring.roaring : readBitmap, writeBitmap;
    // serialize the bitmap
    char[] buf = writeBitmap(r3);
    // deserialize from a char array
    const r3Copy = readBitmap(buf);
    assert(r3 == r3Copy);

    // find the intersection of bitmaps
    const r4 = bitmapOf(1, 5, 6);
    const r5 = bitmapOf(1, 2, 3, 4, 5);
    assert((r4 & r5) == bitmapOf(1, 5));
    // find the union of bitmaps
    assert((r4 | r5) == bitmapOf(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6));

    const r6 = bitmapOf(0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50);
    // get the bit for the index
    assert(20 == r6[2]);
    // slice a bitmap
    assert(bitmapOf(30, 40, 50) == r6[3..$]);

    // convert the bitmap to a string
    writeln("Bitmap: ", r6);
    import std.conv : to;
    assert("{0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50}" == to!string(r6));

    // the bit range!
    import std.algorithm : filter, sum;
    import roaring.roaring : range, BitRange;
    // sum of bits in r6 which are bit % 20==0
    assert(60 == r6.range.filter!(b => b % 20 == 0).sum);

    // if your bitmaps have long runs, you can compress them
    auto r7 = bitmapOf(1000.iota);
    writeln("size before optimize = ", r7.sizeInBytes);
    r7.optimize();
    writeln("size after optimize = ", r7.sizeInBytes);
}
