Initial public release of Backplane, a small in-process application runtime for Go.
Runtime
- Declare modules as ordinary
func(context.Context, ...dependencies) errorfunctions. Channel directions declare typed publishers and subscribers; other parameters declare caller-owned resources. - Validate module signatures, topic producers, and resource bindings before any module starts. Concrete resources can satisfy interface parameters when the match is unambiguous.
- Run a fixed module set concurrently under one shared context. The first module error cancels its siblings, waits for them to return, and reports the failing module by name.
Topics and state
- Fan values from multiple publishers to every live subscriber of the same exact Go type. The topic pump accepts at most one value at a time, so slow subscribers apply backpressure to subsequent publications.
- Close subscriptions after every publisher has returned, remove subscriptions whose module has already stopped, and drain and drop publications during cancellation so blocked publishers can unwind.
- Provide
Latest[T]for current-state consumers, with timestampedLoadaccess and non-backpressuring, latest-winsWatchnotifications.
Topology and documentation
- Derive a deterministic graph of modules, resources, and topics from the same declarations used at runtime, without starting modules or constructing resources.
- Render the topology as a Mermaid flowchart.
- Document the lifecycle, ownership, and delivery contracts with package documentation and executable examples.
