CRAttributes

Enables colaboration on text field (and other fields) across multiple iOS devices.

It's based on operation based CRDT with replication leveraging native CoreData CloudKit sync. A nearly vanilla implementation of CRDT RGA (operation per character).

demo app

https://github.com/munhitsu/CRAttributesDemo

project status

Work in progress (WIP) / Request for comments (RFC)

milestones/roadmap

  • serialisation and deserialisation of basic attributes using LWW and Mutable String using RGA
  • replication primitives
  • live merging of remote changes
    • LWW
    • MutableString Insert
    • MutableString Delete
  • demo app (CRAttributesDemo)
  • enable user to reference character?
  • sharing (native)
  • Foreign key
  • ORM?
  • optimisations - never ending

warning

This code is not produciton ready. Data structures and api may change

usage

You need to build your model using CR primitives. See tests.

Goal

To describe text as an operation graph where adding operation does not modify exiting nodes (no foreign key updates, but leveraging reverse foreign key updates). 10K characters note needs to load with low latency - below 0.1s (tested on M1)

Source: https://www.nngroup.com/articles/response-times-3-important-limits/ "0.1 second is about the limit for having the user feel that the system is reacting instantaneously, meaning that no special feedback is necessary except to display the result."

Performance/benchmark goal

high

Opening a note that’s been previously locally edited Every local operation (upstream) needs to be performed instantly (aim for the refresh rate speed)

medium

Rendering 1st remote operation on the note since opening Rendering remote operation backlog on the freshly opened note that’s been previously locally edited (might be a duplicate) Rendering note that only have remote operations and has never been opened

low

Sync to CloudKit

Tasks

rebuilding protobuf model
