crawdad-rkyv

Note: This is a fork of the original daac-tools/crawdad created to provide serialization support via the rkyv framework.

This fork adds rkyv's Archive, Serialize, and Deserialize traits to the data structures within crawdad. This modification enables zero-copy deserialization, which is essential for projects requiring near-instantaneous loading of serialized data, such as vibrato-rkyv.

All credit for the core implementation and functionality goes to the original authors of crawdad.

Purpose

The primary purpose of this fork is to serve as a dependency for other -rkyv suffixed projects. It is published on crates.io to satisfy the dependency requirements for publishing those projects.

Changes

• Added #[derive(Archive, Serialize, Deserialize)] to Trie and other relevant structs.
• Implemented necessary methods on the Archived versions of structs to maintain functionality (e.g., common_prefix_search on ArchivedTrie).

Usage

You would typically not use this crate directly. Instead, it is used as a dependency by other libraries that rely on rkyv-serializable versions of crawdad's data structures.
