Dot style CRDTs implementation : distributed nested data types in Elixir

Crdtex

Dot style CRDTs implementation : distributed nested data types in Elixir. Elixir fork/rewrite of riak_dt using :

• Elixir protocols to take any compatible CRDT as field value in a map
• Erlang maps %{} instead of dict, orddict, ordset

The goal is to have a nicer API on riak_dt types than the erlang one making profit from Erlang Map and Elixir features.

Current State

All CRDTs from riak_dt compatible with riak_dt_map are ported into this library, with there tests. Currently they all pass.

BUT DO NOT USE IT IN PRODUCTION YET

Since the goal is to have a nice API, the API is not stabilized yet so it will change soon.

Usage

Installation

If available in Hex, the package can be installed as:

1. Add crdtex to your list of dependencies in mix.exs:

   def deps do [{:crdtex, "~> 0.0.1"}] end

2. Ensure crdtex is started before your application:

   def application do [applications: [:crdtex]] end
