For a DAG (Direct Acyclic Graph, like the one used with acts-as-dag), it calculates the list of all links (direct and indirect) based on the list of direct links (parent-child).

Example:

We have a DAG like this:

  A --- B --- C --- D --- H
     |           |
     -- F --- E --

we receive the direct links info that describe that DAG like this:

[
   { ancestor_id: 'A', descendant_id: 'B' },
   { ancestor_id: 'A', descendant_id: 'F' },
   { ancestor_id: 'B', descendant_id: 'C' },
   { ancestor_id: 'C', descendant_id: 'D' },
   { ancestor_id: 'F', descendant_id: 'E' },
   { ancestor_id: 'E', descendant_id: 'D' },
   { ancestor_id: 'D', descendant_id: 'H' },
]

we'll produce an intermediate structures (routes) like this:

[
   <struct DagLinkCalculator::NodeRoute nodes=['H', 'D']>
   <struct DagLinkCalculator::NodeRoute nodes=['H', 'D', 'C']>
   <struct DagLinkCalculator::NodeRoute nodes=['H', 'D', 'C', 'B']>
   <struct DagLinkCalculator::NodeRoute nodes=['H', 'D', 'C', 'B', 'A']>
   <struct DagLinkCalculator::NodeRoute nodes=['H', 'D', 'E']>
   <struct DagLinkCalculator::NodeRoute nodes=['H', 'D', 'E', 'F']>
   <struct DagLinkCalculator::NodeRoute nodes=['H', 'D', 'E', 'F', 'A']>
   <struct DagLinkCalculator::NodeRoute nodes=['D', 'C']>
   <struct DagLinkCalculator::NodeRoute nodes=['D', 'C', 'B']>
   <struct DagLinkCalculator::NodeRoute nodes=['D', 'C', 'B', 'A']>
   <struct DagLinkCalculator::NodeRoute nodes=['D', 'E']>
   <struct DagLinkCalculator::NodeRoute nodes=['D', 'E', 'F']>
   <struct DagLinkCalculator::NodeRoute nodes=['D', 'E', 'F', 'A']>
   <struct DagLinkCalculator::NodeRoute nodes=['C', 'B']>
   <struct DagLinkCalculator::NodeRoute nodes=['C', 'B', 'A']>
   <struct DagLinkCalculator::NodeRoute nodes=['B', 'A']>
   <struct DagLinkCalculator::NodeRoute nodes=['E', 'F']>
   <struct DagLinkCalculator::NodeRoute nodes=['E', 'F', 'A']>
   <struct DagLinkCalculator::NodeRoute nodes=['F', 'A']>
]

and then return a list of links like this:


[
 { ancestor_id: 'A', descendant_id: 'B', direct: true, count: 1 },
 { ancestor_id: 'A', descendant_id: 'C', direct: false, count: 1 },
 { ancestor_id: 'A', descendant_id: 'D', direct: false, count: 2 },
 { ancestor_id: 'A', descendant_id: 'E', direct: false, count: 1 },
 { ancestor_id: 'A', descendant_id: 'F', direct: true, count: 1 },
 { ancestor_id: 'A', descendant_id: 'H', direct: false, count: 2 },
 { ancestor_id: 'B', descendant_id: 'C', direct: true, count: 1 },
 { ancestor_id: 'B', descendant_id: 'D', direct: false, count: 1 },
 { ancestor_id: 'B', descendant_id: 'H', direct: false, count: 1 },
 { ancestor_id: 'C', descendant_id: 'D', direct: true, count: 1 },
 { ancestor_id: 'C', descendant_id: 'H', direct: false, count: 1 },
 { ancestor_id: 'D', descendant_id: 'H', direct: true, count: 1 },
 { ancestor_id: 'E', descendant_id: 'D', direct: true, count: 1 },
 { ancestor_id: 'E', descendant_id: 'H', direct: false, count: 1 },
 { ancestor_id: 'F', descendant_id: 'D', direct: false, count: 1 },
 { ancestor_id: 'F', descendant_id: 'E', direct: true, count: 1 },
 { ancestor_id: 'F', descendant_id: 'H', direct: false, count: 1 },
]

Usage

Given a list of objects defining the direct links:

# it will recognise keys:
# - for the ancestor => `ancestor`, `ancestor_id`, `parent` and `parent_id`
# - for the descendant => `descendant`, `descendant_id`, `child` and `child_id`

direct_link_hashes = [
  { ancestor_id: 'A', descendant_id: 'B' },
  { ancestor: 'A', descendant_id: 'F' },
  { ancestor_id: 'B', descendant: 'C' },
  { parent_id: 'C', descendant_id: 'D' },
  { ancestor_id: 'F', child_id: 'E' },
  { parent_id: 'E', child_id: 'D' },
  { parent: 'D', child: 'H' },
]

calculator = DagLinkCalculator.from_direct_links_hashes(direct_link_hashes)

Cycle Detection

When generating the routes, if a cycle is detected (a parent node that is also a descendant node), a CycleException will be raised:

e.g.

      # introducing a cycle (H parent of F)
      #
      #  A <-- B <-- C <--- D <-- H
      #     |            |        ^
      #     -- F <-- E <--        |
      #        |                  |
      #        --------------------


'nodes "H" and "F" are ancestor and descendant of each other: cycle detected!'
