defmodule SystemRegistry do
@moduledoc """
SystemRegistry is a transactional nested term storage and dispatch system.
It takes a different approach to a typical publish-subscribe pattern by
focusing on data instead of events. SystemRegistry is local
(as opposed to distributed) and transactional (as opposed to asynchronous)
to eliminate race conditions. It also supports eventual consistency with
rate-limiting consumers that control how often they receive state updates.
Data in SystemRegistry is stored as a tree of nodes, represented by a
nested map. In order to perform operations on the registry data, you specify
the scope of the operation as a list of keys to walk to the desired tree node.

Returns a transaction struct to pass to update/3 and delete/4 to chain
modifications to to group. Prevents notifying registrants for each action.

Execute an transaction to insert or modify data.
Update can be called on its own:
iex> SystemRegistry.update([:a], 1)
{:ok, {%{a: 1}, %{}}}
Or it can be included as part of a transaction pipeline
iex> SystemRegistry.transaction |> SystemRegistry.update([:a], 1) |> SystemRegistry.commit
{:ok, {%{a: 1}, %{}}}
Passing a map to update will recursively expand into a transaction
for example this:
iex> SystemRegistry.update([:a], %{b: 1})
{:ok, {%{a: %{b: 1}}, %{}}}
is equivalent to this:
iex> SystemRegistry.update([:a, :b], 1)

ownes under it.

Register process to receive notifications.
Registrants are rate-limited and require that you pass an interval.
Upon registration, the caller will receive the current state.
options
* `:hysteresis` - Default: 0, The amount of time to wait before delivering the first
change message.
* `:min_interval` - Default: 0, The minimum amount of time to wait after hysteresis,
but before the next message is to be delivered.
With both options defaulting to , you will receive every message.
