Aqua

release npm

Aqua is an open-source language for distributed workflow coordination in p2p networks. Aqua programs are executed on many peers, sequentially or in parallel, forming a single-use coordination network. Applications are turned into hostless workflows over distributed function calls, which enables various levels of decentralization: from handling by a limited set of servers to complete peer-to-peer architecture by connecting user devices directly. Aqua is the core of the Fluence protocol and a framework for internet or private cloud applications.

Usage

The easiest way to use Aqua is through Fluence CLI with aqua command.

Other ways of using Aqua are described in USAGE.md.

Documentation

Comprehensive documentation and usage examples as well as a number of videos can be found in Aqua Book. Aqua Playground demonstrates how to start writing Aqua and integrate it into a TypeScript application. Numerous videos are available at our YouTube channel.

Repository Structure

  • api - Aqua API for JS
  • aqua-run - Aqua API to run functions
  • backend - compilation backend interface
  • compiler - compiler as a pure function made from linker, semantics and backend
  • model - middle-end, internal representation of the code, optimizations and transformations
    • transform - optimizations and transformations, converting model to the result, ready to be rendered
    • test-kit - tests and test helpers for the model and transformations
  • linker - checks dependencies between modules, builds and combines an abstract dependencies tree
  • parser - parser, takes source text and produces a source AST
  • semantics - rules to convert source AST into the model
  • types - data types, arrows, stream types definitions and variance
