ebloom

Overview

Travis-CI ::

ebloom is a NIF wrapper around a basic bloom filter.

Quick Start

You must have Erlang/OTP R13B04 or later and a GNU-style build system to compile and run ebloom.

git clone git://github.com/basho/ebloom.git
cd ebloom
make

Start up an Erlang shell with the path to ebloom included.

erl -pa path/to/ebloom/ebin

Create a new bloom filter, insert elements, and test for an elements presence.

1> PredictedElementCount=5.
5
2> FalsePositiveProbability=0.01.

3> RandomSeed=123.
123
4> {ok, Ref} = ebloom:new(PredictedElementCount, FalsePositiveProbability, RandomSeed).
{ok,<<>>}
5> ebloom:insert(Ref, <<"abcdef">>).
ok
6> true = ebloom:contains(Ref, <<"abcdef">>).
true
7> false = ebloom:contains(Ref, <<"zzzzzz">>).
false
