consensus-manager v1.0.0

###consensus-manager

####consensus wrapper for a distributed topology

The consensus manager listens and stores responses from remote peers until the consensus is reached. The consensus is reached depending on the strategy implemented.

The consensus manager controls:

• time it takes to reach consensus
• accepts and stores responses from peers
• notices upper layer when consensus is reached and its output (if any)

The strategy defines:

• when consensus is reached

####installation

sudo npm install consensus-manager

####example

Strategy         = require('..')
ConsensusManager  = require('ConsensusManager') 

var strategy = new Startegy(strategy_opts)  
var consensus = new ConsensusManager(strategy)  


consensus.on('listening', function(){
  //event fired when consensus manager is initialized
})

consensus.on('consensus', function(result, time_diff){
  //event fired when consensus is reached
})

consensus.on('noListening', function(){
  //event fired when a peer's response arrives but consensus has been reached
})



//init consensus manager
consensus.init// ... stuff happen, user sent a response

//...
 
//peer answers. consensus manager processes its response
consensus.process(response)
