The key type.
The value type.
Constructs a CValueMap.
If provided, used to aggregate concurrently-set values at the same key, instead of picking one arbitrarily.
Serializer for keys. Defaults to [[DefaultSerializer]].
Serializer for values. Defaults to [[DefaultSerializer]].
The children (registered Collab properties), keyed by name.
This map should only be read, not mutated. It is exposed to subclasses as a convenience for methods that loop over all children.
Internal (this/parent) use only.
This Collab's name, which distinguishes it among its siblings in the tree of Collabs.
Internal (this/parent) use only.
This Collab's parent in the tree of Collabs.
The ambient [[IRuntime]].
Use this to access utilities like [[IRuntime.replicaID]].
Internal (parent) use only.
By default, this method returns true if canGC returns true
on every child. Override to change this behavior.
See [[Collab.canGC]].
Deletes the given key, making it no longer present in this map.
true if key was present and has been removed.
Emits an event, which triggers all the registered event handlers.
See [[CollabEventsRecord]] for advice on what events to emit.
This is a wrapper around [[EventEmitter.emit]] that forces events to extend [[CollabEvent]] and also emits an "Any" event.
Set to true to skip emitting an "Any" event.
Internal (parent) use only.
By default, this methods calls finalize on every child.
Override to change this behavior,
e.g., to add your own finalization steps
(but consider calling super.finalize()).
Returns all conflicting concurrently-set values at key. Their order is arbitrary but consistent across replicas.
If the key is not present, this returns [].
Otherwise, its first element is the set value.
Internal (parent) use only.
Called by this Collab's parent to load saved state. See [[Collab.load]].
A CObject subclass may override this method to load additional state from [[Collab.save]] or to perform extra setup - e.g., refreshing functional views that were not automatically updated by children's load events. It is recommended to do so as follows:
load(savedStateTree: SavedStateTree | null, meta: SavedStateMeta) {
super.load(savedStateTree, meta);
// Process your extra saved state from savedStateTree.self.
const savedState = savedStateTree === null? null: savedStateTree.self!;
...
// Perform extra setup as needed.
...
}
Registers an event handler that is triggered when the event happens.
Name of the event to listen on.
Callback that handles the event.
If true, the event handler is triggered at most once (the next time the event happens), then unsubscribed.
An "off" function that removes the event handler when called.
Registers an event handler that is triggered when the event happens.
An "off" function that removes the event handler when called.
Registers a [[Collab]] property of this CObject with the given name, making it one of our children.
Typically, you will call this method during the constructor in the style:
this.foo = this.registerCollab("foo", (init) => new FooClass(init, constructor args...));
where readonly foo: FooClass; is a Collab property. See
Data Modeling
for examples.
Registrations must be identical across all replicas.
See also: CRuntime.registerCollab.
A name for this property, unique among
this class's registerCollab calls.
We recommend using the same name as the property,
but you can also use short strings to reduce
network usage ("", "0", "1", ...).
A callback that uses the given [[InitToken]] to construct the registered [[Collab]].
The registered Collab.
Internal (parent) use only.
Returns saved state describing the current state of this CObject. See [[Collab.save]].
A CObject subclass may override this method to save additional state. It is recommended to do so as follows:
save() {
const ans = super.save();
// Put your extra saved state in ans.self, which is otherwise unused.
ans.self = <subclass's saved state>;
return ans;
}
Broadcasts a message to other replicas of this Collab. The message will be delivered to all replicas' receive, including locally.
For convenience, the message may be expressed as a stack of
(Uint8Array | string),
instead of just a single Uint8Array. This is
useful for parents sending messages on behalf of their children;
see the implementation of [[CObject]] for an example.
The message to send, in the form of a stack of Uint8Arrays. Note that this method may mutate it in-place.
Sets the value at key.

Generated using TypeDoc
A collaborative map with keys of type K and values of type V.
The API is compatible* with
Map<K, V>and can be used as a drop-in collaborative replacement when V is internally immutable. If multiple users set the value at a key concurrently, one of them is picked arbitrarily.Values must be internally immutable; mutating a value internally will not change it on other replicas. If you need to mutate values internally, instead use a CMap or [[CLazyMap]].
(*) Except for the return value of set, which is the set value instead of
this.
