Functions

func BinaryFromDsKey

func BinaryFromDsKey(k datastore.Key) ([]byte, error)

BinaryFromDsKey returns the byte slice corresponding to the given Key.

func CidToDsKey

func CidToDsKey(k *cid.Cid) datastore.Key

CidToDsKey creates a Key from the given Cid.

func DsKeyToCid

func DsKeyToCid(dsKey datastore.Key) (*cid.Cid, error)

DsKeyToCid converts the given Key to its corresponding Cid.

func NewKeyFromBinary

func NewKeyFromBinary(rawKey []byte) datastore.Key

NewKeyFromBinary creates a new key from a byte slice.
