Resolver Plugins

Overview

Resolver plugins implement the core resolution logic for properties in the Custom Resolver system. Each plugin is responsible for:

1. Initializing its internal state
2. Processing updates to the property
3. Resolving the final value from the current state

Plugin Lifecycle

1. Initialization: When a resolver is created, each plugin's initialize() method is called to set up its initial state.
2. Update Processing: For each new delta, the update() method is called with the current state, new value, and any dependency states.
3. Resolution: The resolve() method is called to produce the final value from the current state.

Built-in Plugins

The system includes several common resolution strategies:

• Last Write Wins
• First Write Wins
• Concatenation
• Majority Vote
• Minimum Value
• Maximum Value

Creating Custom Plugins

See the Creating Custom Plugins guide for detailed information on implementing your own resolver plugins.
