Table
The Table
provides a flexible and efficient way to manage large amounts of data in a table format. Each table item is represented as a separate global state item, allowing for scalable storage solutions.
Core Features of Table
Structure
The Table
struct is designed to handle large-scale storage with efficiency:
handle
: An address that uniquely identifies the table.
Constants
The following constants define various error codes used within the module (these are implied but not explicitly stated in the provided code):
ENOT_FOUND
: Key not found in the table.EALREADY_EXIST
: Key already exists in the table.EINVALID_ARGUMENT
: Invalid argument passed to a function.
API Overview
Creating Tables
new<K: copy + drop, V: store>(): Table<K, V>
: Creates a new table.
Managing Entries
add<K: copy + drop, V>(table: &mut Table<K, V>, key: K, val: V)
: Adds a key-value pair to the table. Aborts if the key already exists.remove<K: copy + drop, V>(table: &mut Table<K, V>, key: K): V
: Removes and returns the value associated with a key. Aborts if the key is not found.upsert<K: copy + drop, V: drop>(table: &mut Table<K, V>, key: K, value: V)
: Inserts or updates a key-value pair.
Retrieving Entries
borrow<K: copy + drop, V>(table: &Table<K, V>, key: K): &V
: Returns an immutable reference to the value associated with a key. Aborts if the key is not found.borrow_with_default<K: copy + drop, V>(table: &Table<K, V>, key: K, default: &V): &V
: Returns the value associated with a key or a default value if the key is not found.borrow_mut<K: copy + drop, V>(table: &mut Table<K, V>, key: K): &mut V
: Returns a mutable reference to the value associated with a key. Aborts if the key is not found.borrow_mut_with_default<K: copy + drop, V: drop>(table: &mut Table<K, V>, key: K, default: V): &mut V
: Inserts a key-value pair if the key is not found, then returns a mutable reference to the value.
Utility Functions
contains<K: copy + drop, V>(table: &Table<K, V>, key: K): bool
: Checks if the table contains a key.
Example Usage
Creating and Using a Table
table.move
module example::table_usage {
use aptos_std::table::{Self, Table};
public entry fun main() {
let mut table = Table::new<u64, u64>();
Table::add(&mut table, 1, 100);
Table::add(&mut table, 2, 200);
let value1 = Table::borrow(&table, 1);
assert!(*value1 == 100, 0);
let value2 = Table::borrow(&table, 2);
assert!(*value2 == 200, 0);
let removed_value = Table::remove(&mut table, 1);
assert!(removed_value == 100, 0);
let contains_key = Table::contains(&table, 2);
assert!(contains_key, 0);
Table::destroy(table);
}
}
Adding Multiple Entries and Upserting
table.move
module example::table_usage {
use aptos_std::table::{Self, Table};
public fun add_and_upsert_entries() {
let mut table = Table::new<u64, u64>();
Table::add(&mut table, 1, 100);
Table::upsert(&mut table, 1, 200);
Table::upsert(&mut table, 2, 300);
let value1 = Table::borrow(&table, 1);
assert!(*value1 == 200, 0);
let value2 = Table::borrow(&table, 2);
assert!(*value2 == 300, 0);
Table::destroy(table);
}
}
Borrowing Mutable References
table.move
module example::table_usage {
use aptos_std::table::{Self, Table};
public fun borrow_mutable_references() {
let mut table = Table::new<u64, u64>();
Table::add(&mut table, 1, 100);
let value_mut = Table::borrow_mut(&mut table, 1);
*value_mut = 200;
let value = Table::borrow(&table, 1);
assert!(*value == 200, 0);
Table::destroy(table);
}
}
