> A library of Conflict-Free Replicated Data Types for JavaScript.

***Work In Progress***

This module provides a set of Conflict-Free Replicated Data Types for your JavaScript programs. All CRDTs in this library, except G-Counter, are currently operation-based.

CRDTs implemented in this module:

- [G-Counter](https://github.com/orbitdb/crdts/blob/master/src/G-Counter.js)
- [PN-Counter](https://github.com/orbitdb/crdts/blob/master/src/PN-Counter.js)
- [G-Set](https://github.com/orbitdb/crdts/blob/master/src/G-Set.js)
- [2P-Set](https://github.com/orbitdb/crdts/blob/master/src/2P-Set.js)
- [OR-Set](https://github.com/orbitdb/crdts/blob/master/src/OR-Set.js)
- [LWW-Set](https://github.com/orbitdb/crdts/blob/master/src/LWW-Set.js)

## Install

This module uses [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/) and [node](https://nodejs.org/en/).

To install, run:

```sh
$ npm install crdts
```

## Usage

```javascript
import { GCounter, PNCounter, GSet, TwoPSet, ORSet, LWWSet, GSet, ORSet, LWWSet } from 'crdts'
```

See the [source code for each CRDT](https://github.com/orbitdb/crdts/blob/master/src) for the APIs and [tests](https://github.com/orbitdb/crdts/blob/master/test/) for usage examples.

## Inheritance

```
+-----------++-----------++----------++---------++------------++------------+
Data Type | OR-Set || LWW-Set || 2P-Set || G-Set || G-Counter || PN-Counter |
+-----------++-----------++----------++---------++------------++------------+
Base Class | CmRDT-Set | -- |
|-----------------------------------------------+---------------------------+
CRDT Type | Operation-Based | State-based |
+-----------------------------------------------+---------------------------+
```
