Protokeep

Open-source library purpose-built to streamline the development in data-centric architectures.

Problems addressed:

Schema Compatibility: Seamless evolution of data schemas without breaking changes.
Boilerplate Reduction: Minimizes redundant code for serialization and deserialization.
Composite Key Handling: Efficiently creates keys for composite data types.

Current scope:

Key Features

Simple Types: Basic data types like int, string, bool, etc. for common use cases.
Generic Types: Types like optional, array, list, set and map which can hold other types.
Enums: A set of named values.
Algebraic Types:
- record: product type for bundling values.
- union: add type with the unique case's identifiers
Modifiers:
- struct: Ensures the type is referenced by value.
- key: Denotes a field as part of the main identifier for a record.
- idx: Specifies fields that can be accessed using an indexer.
- Version: For managing transaction logic in the storage layers.

Ensures your data model adapts while preserving backward and forward compatibility.

Currently, Protokeep supports type generation for FSharp.

Presently, the only supported data schema format is Protobuf.
