# plop database
The plop database is a distributed, single-master, append-only
database suitable for transparency systems like Certificate
Transparency.
Data entries are stored together with three attributes:
- index
the first entry in a database has index 0, the next 1 and so on
- entry hash
the hash over the entry, used for duplicate detection
- leaf hash
hash over specific parts of the entry, usually together with a
timestamp, for use in a merkle tree
## Erlang code in src/
- db.erl
public interface for adding entries and getting entries by index,
leaf hash and entry hash
- index.erl
file-based storage for ordered append-only lists of fixed-sized
entries, retrievable by index
- atomic.erl
atomic file operations
- util.erl
helper functions for lower level file handling
- fsyncport.erl
interface to C implementation for fsync(2) syscall
## C code in c_src/
- net_read_write.c
read and write to/from a file descriptor, using fsync(2) to increase
probability that data lands on disk
- fsynchelper.c
erlang port for net_read_write
- erlport.c
