CMPH - C Minimal Perfect Hashing Library
----------------------------------------
**Description**
C Minimal Perfect Hashing Library is a portable LGPLed library to create and
work with minimal perfect hashes. The cmph library encapsulates the newest
and more efficient algorithms in the literature in a ease-to-use,
production-quality, fast API. The library is designed to work big entries that
won't fit in the main memory. It has been used successfully to create hashes
bigger than 100 million entries. Although there is a lack of similar libraries
in the free software world, we can point out some of the "distinguishing"
to work with minimal perfect hashing functions. The cmph library encapsulates the newest
and more efficient algorithms (available in the literature) in an easy-to-use,
production-quality and fast API. The library is designed to work with big entries that
can not be fit in the main memory. It has been used successfully for constructing minimal perfect
hashing functions for sets with more than 100 million of keys.
Although there is a lack of similar libraries
in the free software world, we can point out some of the distinguishable
features of cmph:
- Fast
- Space-efficient with main memory usage carefully documented
- The best modern algorithms are available (or at least scheduled for implementation :-))
- Works with in-disk key sets through use of adapter pattern
- Serialization of hash functions
- Portable C code (currently works on GNU/Linux and WIN32)
- Object oriented implementation
- Easily extensible
- Well encapsulated API aiming binary compatibility through releases

**Supported Algorithms**
- [BMZ Algorithm BMZ.html]. A very fast algorithm based on cyclic random graphs to construct minimal
perfect hash functions in linear time. The resulting functions are not order preserving and
can be stored in only 4cn bytes, where c is between 0.93 and 1.15.
- [CZECH Algorithm CZECH.html]. An algorithm based on acyclic random graphs to construct minimal
perfect hash functions in linear time. The resulting functions are order preserving and
are stored in 4cn bytes, where c is greater than 2.
[Click Here COMPARISON.html] to see a comparison of the supported algorithms.
----------------------------------------
**News for version 0.3**
- New heuristics in bmz algorithm, providing hash creation with only
(0.93 * 16 + 4)*n bytes and hash query with (0.93*4)n bytes
- New heuristic added to the bmz algorithm permits to generate a mphf with only
(xxx)*n bytes. The resulting function can be stored in (0.93*4)n bytes.

**The cmph application**
cmph is the name of both the library and the utility
application that comes with this package. You can use the cmph
application to create minimal perfect hashes from command line. The cmph utility
comes with a number of flags, but it is very simple to create and query
minimal perfect hashes:
application for constructing minimal perfect hashing functions from the command line.
The cmph utility
comes with a number of flags, but it is very simple to create and to query
minimal perfect hashing functions:
```
$ # Create mph for keys in file keys_file
$ ./cmph keys_file
$ # Using the czech algorithm (default one) for constructing a mphf for keys in file keys_file
$ ./cmph -g keys_file
$ # Query id of keys in the file keys_query
$ ./cmph -m keys_file.mph keys_query
