`%clay`
|
||
|
|
=======
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Our filesystem.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`%clay` is version-controlled, referentially-transparent, and global.
|
||
|
|
While this filesystem is stored in `%clay`, it is mirrored to Unix for
|
||
|
|
convenience. Unix tells `%clay`s whenever a file changes in the Unix
|
||
|
|
copy of the filesystem so that the change may be applied. `%clay` tells
|
||
|
|
unix whenever an app or vane changes the filesystem so that the change
|
||
|
|
can be effected in Unix. Apps and vanes may use `%clay` to write to the
|
||
|
|
filesystem, query it, and subscribe to changes in it. Ford and gall use
|
||
|
|
`%clay` to serve up apps and web pages.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`%clay` includes three components. First is the filesystem/version
|
||
|
|
control algorithms, which are mostly defined in `++ze` and `++zu` in
|
||
|
|
zuse. Second is the write, query, and subscription logic. Finally, there
|
||
|
|
is the logic for communicating requests to, and receiving requests from,
|
||
|
|
foreign ships.
