    Asynchronous getter methods to retrieve data from Datomic.

    Asynchronous getter methods to retrieve data from Datomic.

    For convenience, all synchronous getter methods from the get package are here wrapped in Futures.

    The Datomic On-Prem(ises) server model provides a Peer that returns data synchronously. The Peer which lives in application memory caches data aggressively and for data fitting in memory latency can be extremely low and queries return very fast. And even when access to disk is needed, clever branching is used. Memcached is also an option.

    The Datomic Cloud model data returns data asynchronously. If Datomic creates a Java API for the Cloud model, Molecule could relatively easy adapt to this model too. In the meanwhile, Future-wrapped methods in this package can be used.

    Molecule has 5 groups of asynchronous getters, each returning Futures of data in various formats:

    • GetAsyncArray - fastest retrieved typed data set. Can be traversed with a fast while loop
    • GetAsyncIterable - for lazily traversing row by row
    • GetAsyncJson - data formatted as Json string
    • GetAsyncList - default getter returning Lists of tuples. Convenient typed data, suitable for smaller data sets
    • GetAsyncRaw - fastest retrieved raw un-typed data from Datomic

    Getters in each of the 5 groups come with 5 time-dependent variations:

    • getAsync [current data]
    • getAsyncAsOf
    • getAsyncSince
    • getAsyncWith
    • getAsyncHistory

    Each time variation has various overloads taking different parameters (see each group for more info).

GetAsyncList

trait GetAsyncList[Tpl] extends AnyRef

Default asynchronous data getter methods on molecules returning Future[List[Tpl]].

For expected smaller result sets it's convenient to return Lists of tuples of data. Considered as the default getter, no postfix has been added (getAsync instead of getAsyncList).

val futureList: Future[List[(String, Int)]] = Person.name.age.getAsync
for {
  list <- futureList
} yield {
  list === List(
    ("Ben", 42),
    ("Liz", 37)
  )
}

Each asynchronous getter in this package simply wraps the result of its equivalent synchronous getter (in the get package) in a Future. getAsyncAsOf thus wraps the result of getAsOf in a Future and so on.

    Get Future with List of n rows as tuples matching molecule.

    Get Future with List of n rows as tuples matching molecule.

    returns

    List[Tpl] where Tpl is a tuple of types matching the attributes of the molecule

    Get Future with List of n rows as tuples matching molecule as of tx.

    Datomic's internal asOf method can take a transaction entity id as argument to retrieve a database value as of that transaction (including).

    Instead of supplying the transaction entity id, in Molecule we supply a TxReport that contains the transaction entity id (which is used as argument to Datomic internally). This is more convenient when using Molecule since we get a TxReport from transaction operations like get, update, retract etc.

    For more info and code examples see equivalent synchronous getAsOf method.
