The go-raft library implements the Raft consensus algorithm.
Refer to the Go package documentation for information about the API.
See the kvstore
program for a practical use case.
Go-raft is open source software distributed under the ISC license.
Similar to SQLite, go-raft is open source but not open contribution for multiple reasons:
- It avoid potential intellectual property and licensing issues.
- It removes the burden of reviewing patches and maintaining the resulting code.
- It helps keeping the software focused on a clear vision.
While this might be disappointing to you, this choice helps me continue to build and maintain go-raft.
I am thankful for any bug report. Feel free to open issues and include as much useful information as possible. I cannot however guarantee that I will fix every bug.
Ideas about current systems and suggestions for new ones are welcome, either on GitHub discussions or by email.
You can also hire me for support or to develop specific features.
