Chaining Dependency Table

Chained methods may be context independent of their proceeding method, or they may be dependent on the results of the preceding method. The Chaining Dependency Table below shows the relationship between immediately adjacent, chained functions.

Examples

  • gun.put({ hello: "world" }).key("my/data")
    • key proceeded by put is dependent on the results of put
    • i.e. the key will be assigned to the same object as the put
  • gun.put({ hello: "world" }).key("my/data").val(function (data) {})
    • val proceeded by key is independent of the results of key, therefore val will work its way back to the previous dependent method, in this case the put method
    • i.e., both key and val are dependent on the results of put
.put( ) .get( ) .path( ) .map( ) .key( ) .val( ) .on( )
.put( ).___ D i D D D D D
.get( ).___ D i D D D D D
.path( ).___ D i D D D D D
.map( ).___ D i D D D D D
.key( ).___ i i i i i i i
.val( ).___ i i i i i i i
.on( ).___ i i i i i i i
.not( ).___ D i D D D D D

Rows represent the initial method, while columns represent the subsequent method.

  • D : Subsequent method is dependent on the previous method.
  • i : Subsequent method is independent of the previous method.

This wiki is where all the GUN website documentation comes from.

You can read it here or on the website, but the website has some special features like rendering some markdown extensions to create interactive coding tutorials.

Please feel free to improve the docs itself, we need contributions!
