v4.0.0

This release introduces a major API upgrade from callbacks to Promises.

Example using async/await syntax:

import { BaseTrie as Trie } from 'merkle-patricia-tree'
const trie = new Trie()
async function test() {
  await trie.put(Buffer.from('test'), Buffer.from('one'))
  const value = await trie.get(Buffer.from('test'))
  console.log(value.toString()) // 'one'
}
test()

Breaking Changes

Trie methods

See the docs for the latest Promise-based method signatures.

Trie.prove renamed to Trie.createProof

To clarify the method's purpose Trie.prove has been renamed to Trie.createProof. Trie.prove has been deprecated but will remain as an alias for Trie.createProof until removed.

Trie raw methods

getRaw, putRaw and delRaw were deprecated in v3.0.0 and have been removed from this release. Instead, please use trie.db.get, trie.db.put, and trie.db.del. If using a SecureTrie or CheckpointTrie, use trie._mainDB to override the checkpointing mechanism and interact directly with the db.

SecureTrie.copy

SecureTrie.copy now includes checkpoint metadata by default. To maintain original behavior of not copying checkpoint state, pass false to param includeCheckpoints.
