FlowDrop Workflow Specification 1.0-draft

Two edge vocabularies, and they never mix

An edge is written one way on the wire and another way in the execution record. Each form has its own key names, and a key from the wrong bag produces something nothing reads.

The rule

Normative: this is the rule
  1. An edge has two forms, each with its own key names.
  2. In transport, the form an editor reads and writes, the keys are source, target, sourceHandle and targetHandle.
  3. In the execution record they are source_handle, target_handle, is_trigger, is_loopback, is_tool, branch_name and edge_id.
  4. Neither vocabulary may carry a key belonging to the other.
Rule identifiers are permanent and are never renumbered. Each implementation publishes its own standing against these rules; this specification does not.spec 1.0-draft · EDGE-9 · changed in spec 1.0
