Method StartIterator

iterator.go:70–80

StartIterator returns a new iterator on the given segmentStack. On success, the returned Iterator will be positioned so that Iterator.Current() will either provide the first entry in the iteration range or ErrIteratorDone. A startKeyInclusive of nil means the logical "bottom-most" possible key and

(
	startKeyInclusive, endKeyExclusive []byte,
	iteratorOptions IteratorOptions)

// IteratorOptions.MinSegmentLevel parameter.  For example, to ignore
// the lowest, 0th segment, use MinSegmentLevel of 1.
func (ss *segmentStack) StartIterator(
	startKeyInclusive, endKeyExclusive []byte,
	iteratorOptions IteratorOptions) (Iterator, error) {
	iter, err :=
		ss.startIterator(startKeyInclusive, endKeyExclusive, iteratorOptions)
	if err != nil {
		return nil, err
	}

	return iter.optimize()
}
