Solidity Linked List

An utility library for using sorted linked list data structures in your Solidity project.

Install

npm install solidity-linked-list

Usage

pragma solidity ^0.8.0;

import {StructuredLinkedList} from "solidity-linked-list/contracts/StructuredLinkedList.sol";

contract MyContract {
    using StructuredLinkedList for StructuredLinkedList.List;

    StructuredLinkedList.List list;

    // your stuff
}
