Crate syndicate

source ·
Expand description

This crate implements the Syndicated Actor model for Rust, including

  • intra-process communication (the actor module),
  • point-to-point links between actor spaces (the relay module),
  • and Dataspace objects (the dataspace module) for replicating state and messages among interested parties.

Modules

actor
The actor module is the core of the Syndicated Actor model implementation.
bag
A “bag” data structure (based on BTreeMap), used in dataspace indexing.
dataflow
dataspace
Implements a dataspace entity.
during
error
Actor errors.
preserves
preserves_schema
relay
rewrite
The implementation of capability attenuation: filtering and rewriting of assertions and messages.
schemas
Auto-generated codecs for Syndicate protocol schemas.
skeleton
High-speed index over a set of assertions and a set of Observers of those assertions.
sturdy
supervise
Extremely simple single-actor supervision. Vastly simplified compared to the available options in Erlang/OTP.
trace
Records describing actions committed at the end of a turn and events triggering the start of a turn. These are not the actions or events themselves: they are reflective information on the action of the system, enough to reconstruct interesting projections of system activity.
value

Macros

enclose
A convenient way of cloning a bunch of state shared among entities, actions, linked tasks, etc.
