Crate ax_core

AX Core

AX is a decentralized event database, streaming and processing engine that allows you to easily build local-first cooperative apps. It makes it easy to run distributed applications on multiple nodes. It is a piece of software that allows you to run your own apps on one or more edge devices and have these apps seamlessly communicate and share data with each other.

---

Note: AX has been created by the company Actyx AG and predates the unrelated Actix framework (although AX wasn’t open-sourced until Oct’23). While we have changed crate names to avoid confusion, the company name remains Actyx AG and appears in some places.

---

This crate contains the implementation of the AX functionality, which will eventually be shaped such that it can be embedded by another application. For now, its intended purpose is only to serve as a dependency of the AX crate.

Macros

• ax_panic
  Wrapper around panic! making sure that the passed in arg evaluates to anyhow::Error. This is to be used in conjunction with the panic hook handler installed inside the node crate in order to pass an error object via a panic without information loss (crate::util::init_panic_hook).
• balanced_or
  Helper to combine multiple filters together with Filter::or, possibly boxing the types in the process. This significantly decreases build times.
• boxed_on_debug
• stags

Constants

• DATABANK_VERSION
  The databank version.
