# [OT.Server](https://hexdocs.pm/ot_server)

`OT.Server` is an application that manages the correct handling of submitted
operations in an operational transformation system. It ships with an adapter
for persisting data to ETS, but implementing new adapters is simple.

## Installation

If [available in Hex](https://hex.pm/docs/publish), the package can be installed
by adding `ot_server` to your list of dependencies in `mix.exs`:

```elixir
def deps do
  [
    {:ot_server, "~> 0.1.0"}
  ]
end
```

## Usage

Implement an adapter as per `OT.Server.Adapter` and configure it as the adapter
for the `:ot_server` application:

```elixir
config :ot_server,
  adapter: MyOTAdapter,
  max_retries: 25,
  ot_types: %{"text" => OT.Text},
  pool_size: 5
```

For an example of how an adapter can be created, see `OT.Server.ETSAdapter`.

### Configuration Options

- `adapter`: The `OT.Server.Adapter` that `OT.Server` will use to interact with
  your data.
- `max_retries`: The number of times a submission will be attempted before it
  fails permanently.
- `ot_types`: A map with string keys pointing to modules that implement
  `OT.Type`.
- `pool_size`: The number of workers to spawn. Each worker processes only a
  single operation at a time, so set this accordingly.
