Pipeline Explorer

Graviton's Transducer algebra lets you compose pipeline stages with >>> (sequential) and &&& (fanout). This interactive explorer shows how data flows through each stage, what summary fields are produced, and how composition works in practice.

How it works

Each box below is a Transducer — a typed, composable pipeline stage. Toggle stages on and off to see how the composition expression and summary record change. Hit Run Pipeline to watch animated data flow through.

Composition Expression

The code shown above each pipeline is the exact Scala expression you would write to compose these transducers:

// Basic ingest
val pipeline = countBytes >>> hashBytes >>> rechunk(blockSize)

// Full CAS with dedup
val pipeline = countBytes >>> hashBytes >>> rechunk(blockSize) >>> blockKeyDeriver >>> dedup

// Verification with fanout
val check = countBytes &&& hashBytes &&& blockVerifier(manifest)

Summary Record

When you compose transducers with >>>, their state types merge into a single Record:

val pipeline = countBytes >>> hashBytes >>> rechunk(blockSize)
// Record[("totalBytes" ~ Long) & ("digestHex" ~ String) & ("hashBytes" ~ Long) & ("blockCount" ~ Long) & ("rechunkFill" ~ Int)]

val (summary, blocks) = stream.run(pipeline.toSink)
summary.totalBytes   // Long — named field access, no casts
summary.digestHex    // String
summary.blockCount   // Long

Data Packets

The animated particles represent different data types flowing through the pipeline:

Packet	Meaning
Raw Bytes	Incoming Chunk[Byte] elements
Block	Rechunked CanonicalBlock after boundary detection
Hash	Content hash being computed (BLAKE3 / SHA-256)
Manifest	ManifestEntry emitted for the block manifest

Try the scenarios

Scenario	Expression	Use Case
Basic Ingest	countBytes >>> hashBytes >>> rechunk	Minimum viable CAS ingest
Full CAS Pipeline	count >>> hash >>> rechunk >>> key >>> dedup	Production ingest with deduplication
Safe Ingest	guard >>> count >>> hash >>> rechunk >>> compress	Upload bomb protection + compression
Verify + Hash	count &&& hash &&& verify	Integrity check with fanout
