Problems

  • how to cache data?

  • how to update query?

Object Graphs

Graph Query

query('section.tasks.steps')

query('camp_section!1')

query('camp_section!1.tasks')

query('camp_section!1.tasks.steps')

query('camp_step!1')

EASY TO HIT
CACHE

Objects Graph is flatten

EASY TO UPDATE

Objects Graph is weakly linked

Troop Query Format

'section!396.tasks@5:10^52525

!396 -  ID of the specified section

.tasks -  expand the "tasks" property

@5:10 - fetch list only ranged from 5-10

^52525 - modified date later than

when component does .query('...')

  • Parse query components to built an AST

  • Walk over the AST to check for cached

  • Reduce the query to contains only not cached

  • Queue the query and batch all queries with an interval

  • Actually issue the query and harvest response

  • Cache each response object

How it works
