Critical Path

In-Memory Storage Adapter

The InMemoryStore adapter stores all projects, tasks, and dependencies in local memory maps.

import { CriticalPathEngine, InMemoryStore } from '@critical-path/core';


const store = new InMemoryStore();
const engine = new CriticalPathEngine({ store });

When to Use

  • Unit Testing: Instant test execution with zero external database dependencies or teardown scripts.
  • Local Prototyping: Experiment with Critical Path APIs without installing database drivers.
  • Ephemeral Sandbox Workflows: In-memory simulations of project plans and critical path calculations.

Limitations

  • Data is volatile and lost upon process termination.
  • Not suited for multi-instance production environments without external synchronization.
