The github repo is just a read-only mirror that does not accept issues.
NextGraph
NextGraph brings about the convergence between P2P and Semantic Web technologies, towards a decentralized, secure and privacy-preserving cloud, based on CRDTs.
This open source ecosystem provides solutions for end-users and software developers alike, wishing to use or create decentralized apps featuring: live collaboration on rich-text documents, peer to peer communication with end-to-end encryption, offline-first, local-first, portable and interoperable data, total ownership of data and software, security and privacy. Centered on repositories containing semantic data (RDF), rich text, and structured data formats like JSON, synced between peers belonging to permissioned groups of users, it offers strong eventual consistency, thanks to the use of CRDTs. Documents can be linked together, signed, shared securely, queried using the SPARQL language and organized into sites and containers.

For developers
Read our getting started guide.
For contributors
- Install Rust minimum required MSRV 1.64.0
- Install Nodejs
- Install LLVM
until this PR is accepted, will have to install wasm-pack this way:
cargo install wasm-pack --git https://github.com/rustwasm/wasm-pack.git --rev c2b663f25abe50631a236d57a8c6d7fd806413b2
cargo install cargo-watch
// optionally, if you want a Rust REPL: cargo install evcxr_repl
git clone git@git.nextgraph.org:NextGraph/nextgraph-rs.git
// or if you don't have a git account: git clone https://git.nextgraph.org/NextGraph/nextgraph-rs.git
cd nextgraph-rs
cargo build
Packages
The crates are organized as follow :
- p2p-repo : NextGraph repositories common library
- p2p-net : P2P network common library
- p2p-broker : the broker code (as server and core node)
- p2p-client-ws : the client connecting to a broker with WebSocket, used by the apps and verifier
- p2p-verifier : the code of the verifier
- stores-lmdb : lmdb backed stores
- ngcli : CLI tool to manipulate the repos and administrate the server
- ngd : binary executable of the daemon (that can run a broker, verifier and/or Rust services)
- ng-wallet : keeps the secret keys of all identities of the user in a safe wallet
- ng-sdk-js : contains the JS SDK, with example apps: web app, react app, or node service.
- ng-app : all the native apps, based on Tauri, and the web app.
- ngone : server for nextgraph.one (helps user bootstrap into the right app)
- ngaccount : server for nextgraph's Broker Service Provider account manager.
Run
Build & run debug executables:
// runs the daemon
cargo run --bin ngd
// runs the client
cargo run --bin ngcli
For the web apps, see the README
Test
Test all:
cargo test --all --verbose -- --nocapture
Test a single module:
cargo test --package p2p-repo --lib -- branch::test --nocapture
Test end-to-end client and server:
cargo test --package ngcli -- --nocapture
Test WASM websocket
cd ng-sdk-js
wasm-pack test --chrome --headless
Test Rust websocket
cargo test --package p2p-client-ws --lib -- remote_ws::test::test_ws --nocapture
Build release binaries
First you will need to have the production build of the frontend.
If you do not want to setup a whole development environment for the frontend, you can use the precompiled release of the frontend available in dist-file.tar.gz
cd ng-app
tar -xzf dist-file.tar.gz
cd ..
Otherwise, build from source the single-file release of ng-app
npm install -g pnpm
cd ng-sdk-js
wasm-pack build --target bundler
cd ../ng-app
pnpm install
pnpm webfilebuild
cd ..
then build the ngd daemon
cargo build -r -p ngd
you can then find the binary ngd
in target/release
The CLI tool can be obtained with :
cargo build -r -p ngcli
you can then use the binary target/release/ngcli
For usage, see the documentation here.
For building the apps, see this documentation.
Generate documentation
Generate documentation for all packages without their dependencies:
cargo doc --no-deps
The generated documentation can be found in target/doc/<crate-name>
