Circles Transfer

Utility module for Circles to find the Maximum flow and necessary transitive transfers steps in a trust graph with multiple tokens.

Requirements

• NodeJS

Installation

npm i @circles/transfer

Usage

import findTransitiveTransfer from '@circles/transfer';

// Define a weighted trust graph between trusted tokens. Each edge describes
// how much ("capacity") of what token ("token") can be sent from which node
// ("from") to which ("to"):
const nodes = [
  'A',
  'B',
  'C',
  'D',
];

const edges = [
  {
    from: 'A',
    to: 'B',
    token: 'A',
    capacity: 10,
  },
  {
    from: 'B',
    to: 'C',
    token: 'B',
    capacity: 7,
  },
  {
    from: 'B',
    to: 'C',
    token: 'C',
    capacity: 5,
  },
  ...
];

// Find required transfer steps to send transfer transitively between two nodes:
const { transferSteps, maxFlowValue } = findTransitiveTransfer({
  nodes,
  edges,
  from: 'A',
  to: 'D',
  value: 5,
});

// ... we get the maximum possible value:
console.log(`Can send max. ${maxFlowValue} between A and D`);

// ... and finally the transfer steps:
transferSteps.forEach(({ step, from, to, value, token }) => {
  console.log(`${step}.: Send ${value} of ${token} from ${from} to ${to}`);
});
