|
|
:: we're creating an event series E whose lifecycle can be computed
|
|
:: with the urbit lifecycle formula L, `[2 [0 3] [0 2]]`. that is:
|
|
:: if E is the list of events processed by a computer in its life,
|
|
:: its final state is S, where S is nock(E L).
|
|
::
|
|
:: in practice, the first five nouns in E are: two boot formulas,
|
|
:: a hoon compiler as a nock formula, the same compiler as source,
|
|
:: and the arvo kernel as source.
|
|
::
|
|
:: after the first five special events, we enter an iterative
|
|
:: sequence of regular events which continues for the rest of the
|
|
:: computer's life. during this sequence, each state is a function
|
|
:: that, passed the next event, produces the next state.
|
|
::
|
|
:: a regular event is a `[date wire type data]` tuple, where `date` is a
|
|
:: 128-bit Urbit date; `wire` is an opaque path which output can
|
|
:: match to track causality; `type` is a symbol describing the type
|
|
:: of input; and `data` is input data specific to `type`.
|
|
::
|
|
:: in real life we don't actually run the lifecycle loop,
|
|
:: since real life is updated incrementally and also cares
|
|
:: about things like output. we couple to the internal
|
|
:: structure of the state machine and work directly with
|
|
:: the underlying arvo engine.
|
|
::
|
|
:: this arvo core, which is at `+7` (Lisp `cddr`) of the state
|
|
:: function (see its public interface in `sys/arvo`), gives us
|
|
:: extra features, like output, which are relevant to running
|
|
:: a real-life urbit vm, but don't affect the formal definition.
|
|
::
|
|
:: so a real-life urbit interpreter is coupled to the shape of
|
|
:: the arvo core. it becomes very hard to change this shape.
|
|
:: fortunately, it is not a very complex interface.
