Hollow

Hollow is a java library and toolset for disseminating in-memory datasets from a single producer to many consumers for high performance read-only access. Read more.

Documentation is available at http://hollow.how.

Getting Started

We recommend jumping into the quick start guide — you'll have a demo up and running in minutes, and a fully production-scalable implementation of Hollow at your fingertips in about an hour. From there, you can plug in your data model and it's off to the races.

Release binaries are available from Maven Central and jCenter.

Release candidate binaries, matching the -rc\.* pattern for an artifact's version, are available from the jCenter oss-candidate repository, which may be declared in a build.gradle file:

    ...
    repositories {

Generating the Docs

To view the docs locally you can just make site-serve, this will start the MkDocs server at http://127.0.0.1:8000/. You can also run make site-build to build the site locally and make site-deploy to deploy it to Github.

MkDocs runs with python, the Makefile via the venv task should take care of setting the Python's virtualenv for the site tasks. It does assume that virtualenv is available as a command and it also assume that we are targeting python3. Installing Python3 is out of the scope, check your OS package manager. For example, in Mac you can use homebrew to install python3 or anaconda3.
