Project Planning March 21st, 2018

• Status:
  • We have an interpreter that is working.  Uses a stub Tuplespace.  
• Open work items
  • Testing and integration
    • To integrate into the Node, the existing read/print loop runs in the same monad (monix task monad) - should be able to copy from that to do any integration you want.
    • Fire up the Node and have a REPL. 
    • Instantiate the tuplespace in the node, and pass it to the interpreter.  Interpreter should run over task.
      • When we instantiate node we get all the logging messages that are running on the console.
      • Implement Network mode or REPL mode as a flag.
      • There is an sbt thing that needs to be done in order to make the tests work across projects. 
  • Documentation
    • Updating Rholang tutorial 
    • Installation guide - Pawel
    • Some documentation on the flag - running the node. - Pawel
  • Packages & Tags

    • Simple Scala project importing storage library with basic data types & walk through produce and consume.

• Status Update on Transition Function
• What did we learn from the test to extract the environment literals.
  •  Forced the compiler to perform a run time lookup.
• Making scheduling of context more explicit.
• Project completion date for Transition function → End of May.

• Lay out any dependencies that you may have on other teams work.
  • Capture the explicit work item that Node main function needs to implement to instantiate the interpreter on startup.
  • Dependencies between Storage and Interpreter
