Description:knockbox is an eventual-consistency toolbox for Clojure, and eventually the JVM in general. It's inspired by statebox and the paper A comprehensive study of Convergent and Commutative Replicated Data Types.
Databases like Riak let you trade consistency for availability. This means that you can have two conflicting values for a particular key. Resolving these conflicts is up to application-logic in the database clients. Certain data-types and operations are suited for automatic conflict-resolution. This project is a collection of these data-types and operations.
