-[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/y-js/yjs.svg)](https://travis-ci.org/y-js/yjs)
+Yjs is a framework for offline-first p2p shared editing on structured data like
+text, richtext, json, or XML. It is fairly easy to get started, as Yjs hides
+most of the complexity of concurrent editing. For additional information, demos,
+and tutorials visit [y-js.org](http://y-js.org/).

-Yjs is a framework for optimistic concurrency control and automatic conflict resolution on shared data types. The framework implements a new OT-like concurrency algorithm and provides similar functionality as [ShareJs] and [OpenCoweb]. Yjs was designed to handle concurrent actions on arbitrary complex data types like Text, Json, and XML. We provide a tutorial and some applications for this framework on our [homepage](http://y-js.org/).
+:warning: Checkout the [v13 docs](./README.v13.md) for the upcoming release :warning:

-You can create you own shared types easily. Therefore, you can take matters into your own hand by defining the meaning of the shared types and ensure that it is valid, while Yjs ensures data consistency (everyone will eventually end up with the same data). We already provide data types for
+### Extensions
+Yjs only knows how to resolve conflicts on shared data. You have to choose a ..

-| Name                                                 | Description
-| ---------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------
-y-object | Add, update, and remove properties of an object. Circular references are supported. Included in Yjs
-[y-list](https://github.com/y-js/y-list) | A shared linked list implementation. Circular references are supported
-[y-selections](https://github.com/y-js/y-selections) | Manages selections on types that use linear structures (e.g. the y-list type). You can select a range of elements and assign meaning to them.
-[y-xml](https://github.com/y-js/y-xml) | An implementation of the DOM. You can create a two way binding to Browser DOM objects
-[y-text](https://github.com/y-js/y-text) | Collaborate on text. You can create a two way binding to textareas, input elements, or HTML elements (e.g. *h1*, or *p*)
-[y-richtext](https://github.com/y-js/y-richtext) | Collaborate on rich text. You can create a two way binding to several editors
+* *Connector* - a communication protocol that propagates changes to the clients
+* *Database* - a database to store your changes
+* one or more *Types* - that represent the shared data

-Unlike other frameworks, Yjs supports P2P message propagation and is not bound to a specific communication protocol. Therefore, Yjs is extremely scalable and can be used in a wide range of application scenarios.
+Connectors, Databases, and Types are available as modules that extend Yjs. Here
+is a list of the modules we know of:

-We support several communication protocols as so called *Connectors*. You can create your own connector too - read [this wiki page](https://github.com/y-js/yjs/wiki/Custom-Connectors). Currently, we support the following communication protocols:
+##### Connectors

-Name                                     | Description
---------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------
-[y-xmpp](https://github.com/y-js/y-xmpp) | Propagate updates in a XMPP multi-user-chat room ([XEP-0045](http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0045.html))
-[y-webrtc](https://github.com/y-js/y-webrtc) | Propagate updates Browser2Browser via WebRTC
-[y-test](https://github.com/y-js/y-test) | A Connector for testing purposes. It is designed to simulate delays that happen in worst case scenarios
+|Name            | Description               |
+|----------------|-----------------------------------|
+|[webrtc](https://github.com/y-js/y-webrtc) | Propagate updates Browser2Browser via WebRTC|
+|[websockets](https://github.com/y-js/y-websockets-client) | Set up [a central server](https://github.com/y-js/y-websockets-client), and connect to it via websockets |
+|[xmpp](https://github.com/y-js/y-xmpp) | Propagate updates in a XMPP multi-user-chat room ([XEP-0045](http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0045.html))|

+|[test](https://github.com/y-js/y-test) | A Connector for testing purposes. It is designed to simulate delays that happen in worst case scenarios|

+##### Database adapters

-You can use Yjs client-, and server- side. You can get it as via npm, and bower. We even provide polymer elements for Yjs!
+|Name            | Description               |
+|----------------|-----------------------------------|
+|[memory](https://github.com/y-js/y-memory) | In-memory storage. |
+|[indexeddb](https://github.com/y-js/y-indexeddb) | Offline storage for the browser |
+|[leveldb](https://github.com/y-js/y-leveldb) | Persistent storage for node apps |

-The advantages over similar frameworks are support for
-* .. P2P message propagation and arbitrary communication protocols
-* .. arbitrary complex data types
-* .. offline editing: Changes are stored persistently and only relevant changes are propagated on rejoin
-* .. AnyUndo: Undo *any* action that was executed in constant time (coming..)
-* .. Intention Preservation: When working on Text, the intention of your changes are preserved. This is particularily important when working offline. Every type has a notion on how we define Intention Preservation on it.
+##### Types

+| Name     | Description       |
+|----------|-------------------|
+|[map](https://github.com/y-js/y-map) | A shared Map implementation. Maps from text to any stringify-able object |
+|[array](https://github.com/y-js/y-array) | A shared Array implementation |
+|[xml](https://github.com/y-js/y-xml) | An implementation of the DOM. You can create a two way binding to Browser DOM objects |
+|[text](https://github.com/y-js/y-text) | Collaborate on text. Supports two way binding to the [Ace Editor](https://ace.c9.io), [CodeMirror](https://codemirror.net/), [Monaco](https://github.com/Microsoft/monaco-editor), textareas, input elements, and HTML elements (e.g. <*h1*>, or <*p*>) |

 ## Use it!
-You can find a tutorial, and examples on the [website](http://y-js.org). Furthermore, the [github wiki](https://github.com/y-js/yjs/wiki) offers more information about how you can use Yjs in your application.
-
-Either clone this git repository, install it with [bower](http://bower.io/), or install it with [npm](https://www.npmjs.org/package/yjs).
+Install Yjs, and its modules with [bower](http://bower.io/), or
+[npm](https://www.npmjs.org/package/yjs).

 ### Bower
+
 ```
-bower install y-js/yjs
+bower install --save yjs y-array % add all y-* modules you want to use
 ```
-Then you include the libraries directly from the installation folder.
+You only need to include the `y.js` file. Yjs is able to automatically require
+missing modules.  
 ```
 <script src="./bower_components/yjs/y.js"></script>
 ```

+### CDN
+
+```
+<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/yjs@12/dist/y.js"></script>
+<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/y-array@10/dist/y-array.js"></script>
+<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/y-websockets-client@8/dist/y-websockets-client.js"></script>
+<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/y-memory@8/dist/y-memory.js"></script>
+<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/y-map@10/dist/y-map.js"></script>
+<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/y-text@9/dist/y-text.js"></script>
+// ..
+// do the same for all modules you want to use
+```
+
 ### Npm
+
 ```
-npm install yjs --save
+npm install --save yjs % add all y-* modules you want to use
 ```

-And use it like this with *npm*:
+If you don't include via script tag, you have to explicitly include all modules!
+(Same goes for other module systems)
 ```
-Y = require("yjs");
+var Y = require('yjs')
+require('y-array')(Y) // add the y-array type to Yjs
+require('y-websockets-client')(Y)
+require('y-memory')(Y)
+require('y-map')(Y)
+require('y-text')(Y)
+// ..
+// do the same for all modules you want to use
 ```

-# Y()
-In order to create an instance of Y, you need to have a connection object (instance of a Connector). Then, you can create a shared data type like this:
+### ES6 Syntax
+
 ```
-var y = new Y(connector);
+import Y from 'yjs'
+import yArray from 'y-array'
+import yWebsocketsClient from 'y-webrtc'
+import yMemory from 'y-memory'
+import yMap from 'y-map'
+import yText from 'y-text'
+// ..
+Y.extend(yArray, yWebsocketsClient, yMemory, yArray, yMap, yText /*, .. */)
 ```

+# Text editing example

-# Y.Map
-Yjs includes only one type by default - the Y.Map type. It mimics the behaviour of a javascript Object. You can create, update, and remove properies on the Y.Map type. Furthermore, you can observe changes on this type as you can observe changes on Javascript Objects with [Object.observe](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Object/observe) - an ECMAScript 7 proposal which is likely to become accepted by the committee. Until then, we have our own implementation.
-
-
-##### Reference
-* Create
+Install dependencies
 ```
-var map = y.set("new_map", Y.Map).then(function(map){
-  map // is my map type
-});
+bower i yjs y-memory y-webrtc y-array y-text
 ```
-* Every instance of Y is an Y.Map
+
+Here is a simple example of a shared textarea
+```HTML
+  <!DOCTYPE html>
+  <html>
+    <body>
+      <script src="./bower_components/yjs/y.js"></script>
+      <!-- Yjs automatically includes all missing dependencies (browser only) -->
+      <script>
+        Y({
+          db: {
+            name: 'memory' // use memory database adapter.
+            // name: 'indexeddb' // use indexeddb database adapter instead for offline apps
+          },
+          connector: {
+            name: 'webrtc', // use webrtc connector
+            // name: 'websockets-client'
+            // name: 'xmpp'
+            room: 'my-room' // clients connecting to the same room share data
+          },
+          sourceDir: './bower_components', // location of the y-* modules (browser only)
+          share: {
+            textarea: 'Text' // y.share.textarea is of type y-text
+          }
+        }).then(function (y) {
+          // The Yjs instance `y` is available
+          // y.share.* contains the shared types
+
+          // Bind `y.share.textarea` to `<textarea/>`
+          y.share.textarea.bind(document.querySelector('textarea'))
+        })
+      </script>
+      <textarea></textarea>
+    </body>
+  </html>
 ```
-var y = new Y(options);

+
+# API
+
+### Y(options)
+* Y.extend(module1, module2, ..)
+  * Add extensions to Y
+  * `Y.extend(require('y-webrtc'))` has the same semantics as
+    `require('y-webrtc')(Y)`
+* options.db
+  * Will be forwarded to the database adapter. Specify the database adaper on
+    `options.db.name`.
+  * Have a look at the used database adapter repository to see all available
+    options.
+* options.connector
+  * Will be forwarded to the connector adapter. Specify the connector adaper on
+    `options.connector.name`.
+  * All our connectors implement a `room` property. Clients that specify the
+    same room share the same data.
+  * All of our connectors specify an `url` property that defines the connection
+    endpoint of the used connector.
+    * All of our connectors also have a default connection endpoint that you can
+      use for development.
+  * Set `options.connector.generateUserId = true` in order to genenerate a
+    userid, instead of receiving one from the server. This way the `Y(..)` is
+    immediately going to be resolved, without waiting for any confirmation from
+    the server. Use with caution.
+  * Have a look at the used connector repository to see all available options.
+  * *Only if you know what you are doing:* Set
+    `options.connector.preferUntransformed = true` in order receive the shared
+    data untransformed. This is very efficient as the database content is simply
+    copied to this client. This does only work if this client receives content
+    from only one client.
+* options.sourceDir (browser only)
+  * Path where all y-* modules are stored
+  * Defaults to `/bower_components`
+  * Not required when running on `nodejs` / `iojs`
+  * When using nodejs you need to manually extend Yjs:
 ```
-* .get(name)
-  * Retrieve the value of a property. If the value is a type, `.get(name)` returns a promise
-* .set(name, value)
-  * Set/update a property. `value` may be a primitive type, or a custom type definition (e.g. `Y.Map`)
-* .delete(name)
-  * Delete a property
-* .observe(observer)
-  * The `observer` is called whenever something on this object changes. Throws *add*, *update*, and *delete* events
-* .observePath(path, observer)
-  * `path` is an array of property names. `observer` is called when the property under `path` is set, deleted, or updated
-* .unobserve(f)
-  * Delete an observer
+var Y = require('yjs')
+// you have to require a db, connector, and *all* types you use!
+require('y-memory')(Y)
+require('y-webrtc')(Y)
+require('y-map')(Y)
+// ..
+```
+* options.share
+  * Specify on `options.share[arbitraryName]` types that are shared among all
+    users.
+  * E.g. Specify `options.share[arbitraryName] = 'Array'` to require y-array and
+    create an y-array type on `y.share[arbitraryName]`.
+  * If userA doesn't specify `options.share[arbitraryName]`, it won't be
+    available for userA.
+  * If userB specifies `options.share[arbitraryName]`, it still won't be
+    available for userA. But all the updates are send from userB to userA.
+  * In contrast to y-map, types on `y.share.*` cannot be overwritten or deleted.
+    Instead, they are merged among all users. This feature is only available on
+    `y.share.*`
+  * Weird behavior: It is supported that two users specify different types with
+    the same property name.
+     E.g. userA specifies `options.share.x = 'Array'`, and userB specifies
+     `options.share.x = 'Text'`. But they only share data if they specified the
+     same type with the same property name
+* options.type (browser only)
+  * Array of modules that Yjs needs to require, before instantiating a shared
+    type.
+  * By default Yjs requires the specified database adapter, the specified
+    connector, and all modules that are used in `options.share.*`
+  * Put all types here that you intend to use, but are not used in y.share.*

-# A note on intention preservation
-When users create/update/delete the same property concurrently, only one change will prevail. Changes on different properties do not conflict with each other.
+### Instantiated Y object (y)
+`Y(options)` returns a promise that is fulfilled when..

-# A note on time complexities
-* .get(name)
-  * O(1)
-* .set(name, value)
-  * O(1)
-* .delete(name)
-  * O(1)
-* Apply a delete operation from another user
-  * O(1)
-* Apply an update operation from another user (set/update a property)
-  * Yjs does not transform against operations that do not conflict with each other.
-  * An operation conflicts with another operation if it changes the same property.
-  * Overall worst case complexety: O(|conflicts|!)
+* All modules are loaded
+  * The specified database adapter is loaded
+  * The specified connector is loaded
+  * All types are included
+* The connector is initialized, and a unique user id is set (received from the

+  * Note: When using y-indexeddb, a retrieved user id is stored on `localStorage`

-# Status
-Yjs is a work in progress. Different versions of the *y-* repositories may not work together. Just drop me a line if you run into troubles.
+The promise returns an instance of Y. We denote it with a lower case `y`.

+### Logging
+Yjs uses [debug](https://github.com/visionmedia/debug) for logging. The flag
+`y*` enables logging for all y-* components. You can selectively remove
+components you are not interested in: E.g. The flag `y*,-y:connector-message`
+will not log the long `y:connector-message` messages.

-## Changelog
-##### 1.0
-This is a complete rewrite of the 0.5 version of Yjs. Since Yjs 1.0 it is possible to work asynchronously on a persistent database, which enables offline support.
-* Switched to semver versioning
-* Requires a promise implementation in environment (es6 promises suffice, included in all the major browsers). Otherwise you have to include a polyfill
-* Y.Object has been renamed to Y.Map
-* Y.Map exchanges `.val(name [, value])` in favor of `.set(name, value)` and `.get(name)`
-* Y.Map `.get(name)` returns a promise, if the value is a custom type
-* The Connector definition slightly changed (I'll update the wiki)
-* The Type definitions completely changed, so you have to rewrite them (I'll rewrite the article in the wiki)
-* Support for several packaging systems
+##### Enable logging in Node.js
+```sh
+DEBUG=y* node app.js
+```

+Remove the colors in order to log to a file:
+```sh
+DEBUG_COLORS=0 DEBUG=y* node app.js > log
+```

-## Contribution
-I created this framework during my bachelor thesis at the chair of computer science 5 [(i5)](http://dbis.rwth-aachen.de/cms), RWTH University. Since December 2014 I'm working on Yjs as a part of my student worker job at the i5.
+##### Enable logging in the browser
+```js
+localStorage.debug = 'y*'
+```

+
+> A CRDT framework with a powerful abstraction of shared data
+
+Yjs is a [CRDT implementation](#Yjs-CRDT-Algorithm) that exposes its internal
+data structure as *shared types*. Shared types are common data types like `Map`
+or `Array` with superpowers: changes are automatically distributed to other
+peers and merged without merge conflicts.
+
+Yjs is **network agnostic** (p2p!), supports many existing **rich text
+editors**, **offline editing**, **version snapshots**, **undo/redo** and
+**shared cursors**. It scales well with an unlimited number of users and is well
+suited for even large documents.

+This repository contains a collection of shared types that can be observed for
+changes and manipulated concurrently. Network functionality and two-way-bindings
+are implemented in separate modules.

+### Providers
+
+Setting up the communication between clients, managing awareness information,
+and storing shared data for offline usage is quite a hassle. **Providers**
+manage all that for you and are the perfect starting point for your
+collaborative app.
+
+<dl>
+  <dt><a href="http://github.com/y-js/y-websocket">y-websocket</a></dt>
+  <dd>
+A module that contains a simple websocket backend and a websocket client that
+connects to that backend. The backend can be extended to persist updates in a
+leveldb database.
+  </dd>
+  <dt><a href="http://github.com/y-js/y-mesh">y-mesh</a></dt>
+  <dd>
+[WIP] Creates a connected graph of webrtc connections with a high
+<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strength_of_a_graph">strength</a>. It
+requires a signalling server that connects a client to the first peer. But after
+that the network manages itself. It is well suited for large and small networks.
+  </dd>
+  <dt><a href="http://github.com/y-js/y-dat">y-dat</a></dt>
+  <dd>
+[WIP] Write document updates effinciently to the dat network using
+<a href="https://github.com/kappa-db/multifeed">multifeed</a>. Each client has
+an append-only log of CRDT local updates (hypercore). Multifeed manages and sync
+hypercores and y-dat listens to changes and applies them to the Yjs document.

+</dl>
+
+## Getting Started
+
+Install Yjs and a provider with your favorite package manager:
+
+```sh
+npm i yjs@13.0.0-82 y-websocket@1.0.0-3 y-textarea
+```
+
+Start the y-websocket server:
+
+```sh
+PORT=1234 node ./node_modules/y-websocket/bin/server.js
+```
+
+### Example: Textarea Binding
+
+This is a complete example on how to create a connection to a
+[y-websocket](https://github.com/y-js/y-websocket) server instance, sync the
+shared document to all clients in a *room*, and bind a Y.Text type to a dom
+textarea. All changes to the textarea are automatically shared with everyone in
+the same room.
+
+```js
+import * as Y from 'yjs'
+import { WebsocketProvider } from 'y-websocket'
+import { TextareaBinding } from 'y-textarea'
+
+const doc = Y.Doc()
+const provider = new WebsocketProvider('ws://localhost:1234', 'roomname', doc)
+
+// Define a shared type on the document.
+const ytext = doc.getText('my resume')
+
+// use data bindings to bind types to editors
+const binding = new TextareaBinding(ytext, document.querySelector('textarea'))
+```
+
+#### Example: Observe types
+
+```js
+const yarray = doc.getArray('my-array')
+yarray.observe(event => {
+  console.log('yarray was modified')
+})
+// every time a local or remote client modifies yarray, the observer is called
+yarray.insert(0, ['val']) // => "yarray was modified"
+```
+
+#### Example: Nest types
+
+Remember, shared types are just plain old data types. The only limitation is
+that a shared type must exist only once in the shared document.
+
+```js
+const ymap = doc.getMap('map')
+const foodArray = new Y.Array()
+foodArray.insert(0, ['apple', 'banana'])
+ymap.set('food', foodArray)
+ymap.get('food') === foodArray // => true
+ymap.set('fruit', foodArray) // => Error! foodArray is already defined
+```
+
+Now you understand how types are defined on a shared document. Next you can jump
+to the [demo repository](https://github.com/y-js/yjs-demos) or continue reading
+the API docs.

+  </dd>
+  <b><code>on('beforeTransaction', function(Y.Transaction, Y.Doc):void)</code></b>
+  <dd>Emitted before each transaction.</dd>
+  <b><code>on('afterTransaction', function(Y.Transaction, Y.Doc):void)</code></b>
+  <dd>Emitted after each transaction.</dd>
+</dl>
+
+### Document Updates
+
+Changes on the shared document are encoded into *document updates*. Document
+updates are *commutative* and *idempotent*. This means that they can be applied
+in any order and multiple times.
+
+#### Example: Listen to update events and apply them on remote client
+
+```js
+const doc1 = new Y.Doc()
+const doc2 = new Y.Doc()
+
+doc1.on('update', update => {
+  Y.applyUpdate(doc2, update)
+})
+
+doc2.on('update', update => {
+  Y.applyUpdate(doc1, update)
+})
+
+// All changes are also applied to the other document
+doc1.getArray('myarray').insert(0, ['Hello doc2, you got this?'])
+doc2.getArray('myarray').get(0) // => 'Hello doc2, you got this?'
+```
+
+Yjs internally maintains a [state vector](#State-Vector) that denotes the next
+expected clock from each client. In a different interpretation it holds the
+number of structs created by each client. When two clients sync, you can either
+exchange the complete document structure or only the differences by sending the
+state vector to compute the differences.
+
+#### Example: Sync two clients by exchanging the complete document structure
+
+```js
+const state1 = Y.encodeStateAsUpdate(ydoc1)
+const state2 = Y.encodeStateAsUpdate(ydoc2)
+Y.applyUpdate(ydoc1, state2)
+Y.applyUpdate(ydoc2, state1)
+```
+
+#### Example: Sync two clients by computing the differences
+
+This example shows how to sync two clients with the minimal amount of exchanged
+data by computing only the differences using the state vector of the remote
+client. Syncing clients using the state vector requires another roundtrip, but
+can safe a lot of bandwidth.
+
+```js
+const stateVector1 = Y.encodeStateVector(ydoc1)
+const stateVector2 = Y.encodeStateVector(ydoc2)
+const diff1 = Y.encodeStateAsUpdate(ydoc1, stateVector2)
+const diff2 = Y.encodeStateAsUpdate(ydoc2, stateVector1)
+Y.applyUpdate(ydoc1, diff2)
+Y.applyUpdate(ydoc2, diff1)
+```
+
+<dl>
+  <b><code>Y.applyUpdate(Y.Doc, update:Uint8Array, [transactionOrigin:any])</code></b>
+  <dd>
+Apply a document update on the shared document. Optionally you can specify
+<code>transactionOrigin</code> that will be stored on
+<code>transaction.origin</code>
+and <code>ydoc.on('update', (update, origin) => ..)</code>.
+  </dd>
+  <b><code>Y.encodeStateAsUpdate(Y.Doc, [encodedTargetStateVector:Uint8Array]):Uint8Array</code></b>
+  <dd>
+Encode the document state as a single update message that can be applied on the
+remote document. Optionally specify the target state vector to only write the
+differences to the update message.
+  </dd>
+  <b><code>Y.encodeStateVector(Y.Doc):Uint8Array</code></b>
+  <dd>Computes the state vector and encodes it into an Uint8Array.</dd>
+</dl>
+
+### Relative Positions
+
+> This API is not stable yet
+
+This feature is intended for managing selections / cursors. When working with
+other users that manipulate the shared document, you can't trust that an index
+position (an integer) will stay at the intended location. A *relative position*
+is fixated to an element in the shared document and is not affected by remote
+changes. I.e. given the document `"a|c"`, the relative position is attached to
+`c`. When a remote user modifies the document by inserting a character before
+the cursor, the cursor will stay attached to the character `c`. `insert(1,
+'x')("a|c") = "ax|c"`. When the *relative position* is set to the end of the
+document, it will stay attached to the end of the document.
+
+#### Example: Transform to RelativePosition and back
+
+```js
+const relPos = Y.createRelativePositionFromTypeIndex(ytext, 2)
+const pos = Y.createAbsolutePositionFromRelativePosition(relPos, doc)
+pos.type === ytext // => true
+pos.index === 2 // => true
+```
+
+#### Example: Send relative position to remote client (json)
+
+```js
+const relPos = Y.createRelativePositionFromTypeIndex(ytext, 2)
+const encodedRelPos = JSON.stringify(relPos)
+// send encodedRelPos to remote client..
+const parsedRelPos = JSON.parse(encodedRelPos)
+const pos = Y.createAbsolutePositionFromRelativePosition(parsedRelPos, remoteDoc)
+pos.type === remoteytext // => true
+pos.index === 2 // => true
+```
+
+#### Example: Send relative position to remote client (Uint8Array)
+
+```js
+const relPos = Y.createRelativePositionFromTypeIndex(ytext, 2)
+const encodedRelPos = Y.encodeRelativePosition(relPos)
+// send encodedRelPos to remote client..
+const parsedRelPos = Y.decodeRelativePosition(encodedRelPos)
+const pos = Y.createAbsolutePositionFromRelativePosition(parsedRelPos, remoteDoc)
+pos.type === remoteytext // => true
+pos.index === 2 // => true
+```
+
+<dl>
+  <b><code>Y.createRelativePositionFromTypeIndex(Uint8Array|Y.Type, number)</code></b>
+  <dd></dd>
+  <b><code>Y.createAbsolutePositionFromRelativePosition(RelativePosition, Y.Doc)</code></b>

+
+### Y.UndoManager
+
+Yjs ships with an Undo/Redo manager for selective undo/redo of of changes on a
+Yjs type. The changes can be optionally scoped to transaction origins.
+
+```js
+const ytext = doc.getArray('array')
+const undoManager = new Y.UndoManager(ytext)
+
+ytext.insert(0, 'abc')
+undoManager.undo()
+ytext.toString() // => ''
+undoManager.redo()
+ytext.toString() // => 'abc'
+```
+
+<dl>
+  <b><code>constructor(scope:Y.AbstractType|Array&lt;Y.AbstractType&gt;,
+  [[{captureTimeout:number,trackedOrigins:Set&lt;any&gt;,deleteFilter:function(item):boolean}]])</code></b>
+  <dd>Accepts either single type as scope or an array of types.</dd>
+  <b><code>undo()</code></b>
+  <dd></dd>
+  <b><code>redo()</code></b>
+  <dd></dd>
+  <b><code>stopCapturing()</code></b>
+  <dd></dd>
+  <b>
+    <code>
+on('stack-item-added', { stackItem: { meta: Map&lt;any,any&gt; }, type: 'undo'
+| 'redo' })
+    </code>
+  </b>
+  <dd>
+Register an event that is called when a <code>StackItem</code> is added to the
+undo- or the redo-stack.
+  </dd>
+  <b>
+    <code>
+on('stack-item-popped', { stackItem: { meta: Map&lt;any,any&gt; }, type: 'undo'
+| 'redo' })
+    </code>  
+  </b>
+  <dd>
+Register an event that is called when a <code>StackItem</code> is popped from
+the undo- or the redo-stack.
+  </dd>
+</dl>
+
+#### Example: Stop Capturing
+
+UndoManager merges Undo-StackItems if they are created within time-gap
+smaller than `options.captureTimeout`. Call `um.stopCapturing()` so that the next
+StackItem won't be merged.
+
+```js
+// without stopCapturing
+ytext.insert(0, 'a')
+ytext.insert(1, 'b')
+um.undo()
+ytext.toString() // => '' (note that 'ab' was removed)
+// with stopCapturing
+ytext.insert(0, 'a')
+um.stopCapturing()
+ytext.insert(0, 'b')
+um.undo()
+ytext.toString() // => 'a' (note that only 'b' was removed)
+```
+
+#### Example: Specify tracked origins
+
+Every change on the shared document has an origin. If no origin was specified,
+it defaults to `null`. By specifying `trackedTransactionOrigins` you can
+selectively specify which changes should be tracked by `UndoManager`. The
+UndoManager instance is always added to `trackedTransactionOrigins`.
+
+```js
+class CustomBinding {}
+
+const ytext = doc.getArray('array')
+const undoManager = new Y.UndoManager(ytext, new Set([42, CustomBinding]))
+
+ytext.insert(0, 'abc')
+undoManager.undo()
+ytext.toString() // => 'abc' (does not track because origin `null` and not part
+                 //           of `trackedTransactionOrigins`)
+ytext.delete(0, 3) // revert change
+
+doc.transact(() => {
+  ytext.insert(0, 'abc')
+}, 42)
+undoManager.undo()
+ytext.toString() // => '' (tracked because origin is an instance of `trackedTransactionorigins`)
+
+doc.transact(() => {
+  ytext.insert(0, 'abc')
+}, 41)
+undoManager.undo()
+ytext.toString() // => '' (not tracked because 41 is not an instance of
+                 //        `trackedTransactionorigins`)
+ytext.delete(0, 3) // revert change
+
+doc.transact(() => {
+  ytext.insert(0, 'abc')
+}, new CustomBinding())
+undoManager.undo()
+ytext.toString() // => '' (tracked because origin is a `CustomBinding` and
+                 //        `CustomBinding` is in `trackedTransactionorigins`)
+```
+
+#### Example: Add additional information to the StackItems
+
+When undoing or redoing a previous action, it is often expected to restore
+additional meta information like the cursor location or the view on the
+document. You can assign meta-information to Undo-/Redo-StackItems.
+
+```js
+const ytext = doc.getArray('array')
+const undoManager = new Y.UndoManager(ytext, new Set([42, CustomBinding]))
+
+undoManager.on('stack-item-added', event => {
+  // save the current cursor location on the stack-item
+  event.stackItem.meta.set('cursor-location', getRelativeCursorLocation())
+})
+
+undoManager.on('stack-item-popped', event => {
+  // restore the current cursor location on the stack-item
+  restoreCursorLocation(event.stackItem.meta.get('cursor-location'))
+})
+```
+
+## Miscellaneous
+
+### Typescript Declarations
+
+Yjs has type descriptions. But until [this
+ticket](https://github.com/Microsoft/TypeScript/issues/7546) is fixed, this is
+how you can make use of Yjs type declarations.
+
+```json
+{
+  "compilerOptions": {
+    "allowJs": true,
+    "checkJs": true,
+  },
+  "maxNodeModuleJsDepth": 5
+}
+```
+
+## Yjs CRDT Algorithm
+
+*Conflict-free replicated data types* (CRDT) for collaborative editing are an
+alternative approach to *operational transformation* (OT). A very simple
+differenciation between the two approaches is that OT attempts to transform
+index positions to ensure convergence (all clients end up with the same
+content), while CRDTs use mathematical models that usually do not involve index
+transformations, like linked lists. OT is currently the de-facto standard for
+shared editing on text. OT approaches that support shared editing without a
+central source of truth (a central server) require too much bookkeeping to be
+viable in practice. CRDTs are better suited for distributed systems, provide
+additional guarantees that the document can be synced with remote clients, and
+do not require a central source of truth.
+
+Yjs implements a modified version of the algorithm described in [this
+paper](https://www.researchgate.net/publication/310212186_Near_Real-Time_Peer-to-Peer_Shared_Editing_on_Extensible_Data_Types).
+I will eventually publish a paper that describes why this approach works so well
+in practice. Note: Since operations make up the document structure, we prefer
+the term *struct* now.
+
+CRDTs suitable for shared text editing suffer from the fact that they only grow
+in size. There are CRDTs that do not grow in size, but they do not have the
+characteristics that are benificial for shared text editing (like intention
+preservation). Yjs implements many improvements to the original algorithm that
+diminish the trade-off that the document only grows in size. We can't garbage
+collect deleted structs (tombstones) while ensuring a unique order of the
+structs. But we can 1. merge preceeding structs into a single struct to reduce
+the amount of meta information, 2. we can delete content from the struct if it
+is deleted, and 3. we can garbage collect tombstones if we don't care about the
+order of the structs anymore (e.g. if the parent was deleted).
+
+**Examples:**
+
+1. If a user inserts elements in sequence, the struct will be merged into a
+   single struct. E.g. `array.insert(0, ['a']), array.insert(0, ['b']);` is
+   first represented as two structs (`[{id: {client, clock: 0}, content: 'a'},
+   {id: {client, clock: 1}, content: 'b'}`) and then merged into a single
+   struct: `[{id: {client, clock: 0}, content: 'ab'}]`.
+2. When a struct that contains content (e.g. `ItemString`) is deleted, the
+   struct will be replaced with an `ItemDeleted` that does not contain content
+   anymore.
+3. When a type is deleted, all child elements are transformed to `GC` structs. A
+   `GC` struct only denotes the existence of a struct and that it is deleted.
+   `GC` structs can always be merged with other `GC` structs if the id's are
+   adjacent.
+
+Especially when working on structured content (e.g. shared editing on
+ProseMirror), these improvements yield very good results when
+[benchmarking](https://github.com/dmonad/crdt-benchmarks) random document edits.
+In practice they show even better results, because users usually edit text in
+sequence, resulting in structs that can easily be merged. The benchmarks show
+that even in the worst case scenario that a user edits text from right to left,
+Yjs achieves good performance even for huge documents.
+
+### State Vector
+
+Yjs has the ability to exchange only the differences when syncing two clients.
+We use lamport timestamps to identify structs and to track in which order a
+client created them. Each struct has an `struct.id = { client: number, clock:
+number}` that uniquely identifies a struct. We define the next expected `clock`
+by each client as the *state vector*. This data structure is similar to the
+[version vectors](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Version_vector) data structure.
+But we use state vectors only to describe the state of the local document, so we
+can compute the missing struct of the remote client. We do not use it to track
+causality.

-### Terminology
-
-* DB: DataBase that holds all the information of the shared object. It is devided into the OS, DS, and SS. This can be a persistent database or an in-memory database. Depending on the type of database, it could make sense to store OS, DS, and SS in different tables, or maybe different databases.
-* OS: OperationStore holds all the operations. An operation is a js object with a fixed number of name fields.
-* DS: DeleteStore holds the information about which operations are deleted and which operations were garbage collected (no longer available in the OS).
-* SS: StateSet holds the current state of the OS. SS.getState(username) refers to the amount of operations that were received by that respective user.
-* Op: Operation defines an action on a shared type. But it is also the format in which we store the model of a type. This is why it is also called a Struct/Structure.
-* Type and Structure: We crearly distinguish between type and structure. Short explanation: A type (e.g. Strings, Numbers) have a number of functions that you can apply on them. (+) is well defined on both of them. They are *modeled* by a structure - the functions really change the structure of a type. Types can be implemented differently but still provide the same functionality. In Yjs, almost all types are realized as a doubly linked list (on which Yjs can provide eventual convergence)

- An operation also defines the structure of a type. This is why operation and
- structure are used interchangeably here.
-
- It must be of the type Object. I hope to achieve some performance
- improvements when working on databases that support the json format.
-
- An operation must have the following properties:
-
- * encode
-     - Encode the structure in a readable format (preferably string- todo)
- * decode (todo)
-     - decode structure to json
- * execute
-     - Execute the semantics of an operation.
- * requiredOps
-     - Operations that are required to execute this operation.

-  Partial definition of a transaction
-
-  A transaction provides all the the async functionality on a database.
-
-  By convention, a transaction has the following properties:
-  * ss for StateSet
-  * os for OperationStore
-  * ds for DeleteStore
-
-  A transaction must also define the following methods:
-  * checkDeleteStoreForState(state)
-    - When increasing the state of a user, an operation with an higher id
-      may already be garbage collected, and therefore it will never be received.
-      update the state to reflect this knowledge. This won't call a method to save the state!
-  * getDeleteSet(id)
-    - Get the delete set in a readable format:
-      {
-        "userX": [
-          [5,1], // starting from position 5, one operations is deleted
-          [9,4]  // starting from position 9, four operations are deleted
-        ],
-        "userY": ...
-      }
-  * getOpsFromDeleteSet(ds) -- TODO: just call this.deleteOperation(id) here
-    - get a set of deletions that need to be applied in order to get to
-      achieve the state of the supplied ds
-  * setOperation(op)
-    - write `op` to the database.
-      Note: this is allowed to return an in-memory object.
-      E.g. the Memory adapter returns the object that it has in-memory.
-      Changing values on this object will be stored directly in the database
-      without calling this function. Therefore,
-      setOperation may have no functionality in some adapters. This also has
-      implications on the way we use operations that were served from the database.
-      We try not to call copyObject, if not necessary.
-  * addOperation(op)
-    - add an operation to the database.
-      This may only be called once for every op.id
-      Must return a function that returns the next operation in the database (ordered by id)
-  * getOperation(id)
-  * removeOperation(id)
-    - remove an operation from the database. This is called when an operation
-      is garbage collected.
-  * setState(state)
-    - `state` is of the form
-      {
-        user: "1",
-        clock: 4
-      } <- meaning that we have four operations from user "1"
-           (with these id's respectively: 0, 1, 2, and 3)
-  * getState(user)
-  * getStateVector()
-    - Get the state of the OS in the form
-    [{
-      user: "userX",
-      clock: 11
-    },
-     ..
-    ]
-  * getStateSet()
-    - Get the state of the OS in the form
-    {
-      "userX": 11,
-      "userY": 22
-    }
-   * getOperations(startSS)
-     - Get the all the operations that are necessary in order to achive the
-       stateSet of this user, starting from a stateSet supplied by another user
-   * makeOperationReady(ss, op)
-     - this is called only by `getOperations(startSS)`. It makes an operation
-       applyable on a given SS.

-    Notes:
-      startSS: denotes to the SV that the remote user sent
-      currSS:  denotes to the state vector that the user should have if he
-               applies all already sent operations (increases is each step)
-
-    We face several problems:
-    * Execute op as is won't work because ops depend on each other
-     -> find a way so that they do not anymore
-    * When changing left, must not go more to the left than the origin
-    * When changing right, you have to consider that other ops may have op
-      as their origin, this means that you must not set one of these ops
-      as the new right (interdependencies of ops)
-    * can't just go to the right until you find the first known operation,
-      With currSS
-        -> interdependency of ops is a problem
-      With startSS
-        -> leads to inconsistencies when two users join at the same time.
-           Then the position depends on the order of execution -> error!
-
-      Solution:
-      -> re-create originial situation
-        -> set op.left = op.origin (which never changes)
-        -> set op.right
-             to the first operation that is known (according to startSS)
-             or to the first operation that has an origin that is not to the
-             right of op.
-        -> Enforces unique execution order -> happy user
-
-      Improvements: TODO
-        * Could set left to origin, or the first known operation
-          (startSS or currSS.. ?)
-          -> Could be necessary when I turn GC again.

-  mytype.setSomething("yay")
