Hi,

I would like to use the inbloom library for creating a bloom filter for the alexa top 1 million domain list. When trying to dump and load the bloom filter from a file I always get the following error:

$ python test_inbloom.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "test_inbloom.py", line 34, in <module>
    bf = inbloom.load(base64.b64decode(data))
inbloom.error: invalid data length

It seems like I'm running into this error clause: https://github.com/EverythingMe/inbloom/blob/master/py/inbloom/inbloom.c#L221

My test script looks like this:

import requests
import sys
import csv
import base64
import zipfile
import inbloom
from io import BytesIO, TextIOWrapper

ALEXA_URL = "http://s3.amazonaws.com/alexa-static/top-1m.csv.zip"
FP_RATIO = 0.00001 # 0.0001 -> 2.3MB bloom filter file, 0.00001 -> 2.9MB bloom filter file

if __name__ == "__main__":
    alexa_inbloom = None
    response = requests.get(ALEXA_URL)
    if not response or response.status_code != 200:
        sys.exit(-1)

archive = zipfile.ZipFile(BytesIO(response.content))
file = archive.open("top-1m.csv")
with TextIOWrapper(file, encoding="utf-8") as text_file:
    reader = csv.reader(text_file)
    alexa_inbloom = inbloom.Filter(entries=1000000, error=FP_RATIO)
    for row in reader:
        alexa_inbloom.add(row[1].lower())

assert alexa_inbloom.contains("youtube.com")

with open("alexa.inbloom", "wb") as f:
    data = base64.b64encode(inbloom.dump(alexa_inbloom))
    f.write(data)

with open("alexa.inbloom", "rb") as f:
    data = f.read()
    bf = inbloom.load(base64.b64decode(data))

assert bf.contains("youtube.com")

May I ask you to have a look please?

Thanks,
Konstantin
