history
Project history and usage
libdatrie is Theppitak Karoonboonyanan's C implementation of a double-array trie, packaged as a small LGPL library plus the trietool command. It occupies a durable niche in text-processing stacks that need compact dictionary lookup.
Project history
The upstream README traces libdatrie to an earlier C++ library named midatrie and to Junichi Aoe's double-array trie structure. The project page says the implementation was simplified and rewritten from scratch in C, with libdatrie 0.1.0 released on 18 September 2006.
Release notes show a conservative library-maintenance rhythm: ABI and file-format changes before 0.2.0, portability fixes for Mac, Cygwin, MinGW, NetBSD, and Windows, Doxygen documentation updates, serialization APIs, and build-system cleanup. The package has stayed intentionally focused on the data structure rather than becoming a broad NLP toolkit.
Adoption history
The README frames tries as useful for lexical analyzers and spelling dictionaries, and the NEWS file explicitly mentions LibThai word-breaking performance improvements in 2015. Its package availability across Homebrew, Debian, Fedora, Arch, Nix, MacPorts, and other systems reflects its role as a low-level dependency rather than a widely invoked application.
How it is used
Users can link the C library for trie storage and lookup or use trietool to create and inspect trie data. The alphabet-map detail in the original project notes is important: applications define a compact character mapping before building trie storage.
Why package nerds care
libdatrie is the kind of package that shows why distro dependency graphs matter: a tiny C library, an old but useful data structure, a command-line utility, and years of portability fixes that keep language and dictionary packages building cleanly.
Timeline
- 2001: The older midatrie C++ releases appeared on the original project page.
- 2006: libdatrie 0.1.0 was released as a C rewrite with a BASE-TAIL double-array trie structure.
- 2009: libdatrie 0.2.0 added performance APIs and started the 0.2 series.
- 2015: libdatrie 0.2.9 renamed trietool-0.2 to trietool and documented LibThai performance improvements.
- 2018: libdatrie 0.2.11 and 0.2.12 focused on correctness, C90 portability, and compiler-warning fixes.
- 2021: libdatrie 0.2.13 added memory-buffer serialization APIs and more portability fixes.
- 2025: libdatrie 0.2.14 cleaned up build dependencies, parallel-build issues, and error handling.
Related projects
- midatrie is the direct predecessor. LibThai is a notable downstream text-processing user, and Aoe's double-array trie paper is the algorithmic reference cited by upstream.
