[erlang-questions] is luke the only / main dataflow-on-actors-in-erlang thing?
Raoul Duke
or are there other dataflow libs on top of erlang actors?
gracias.

README of luke is really ascetic. Is there any more documentation or
examples? What exactly does it do, and how?

I would be interested to know too.

Luke has been deprecated, and will be removed from the next release of
Riak. Examples of its use can be found in riak_kv (shortly, only
branches for 1.2 and earlier). But, no one is maintaining it.

Riak has migrated its dataflow uses to the riak_pipe project. Pipe is
more of a tool for actually processing data than a library for
describing abstract flows, and it assumes you're working with a
riak_core cluster. But, it's much better documented and includes
practical features like backpressure to help processing behave more
predictably.

called Erlang Services Platform (Erlang/SP). It is very immature
right now, but you can get a peek at http://github.com/duomark/erlangsp
The basic approach is to express a service as Co-operating Processes
(co-ops) using the digraph module to create a computational graph.
The coop modules populate the graph with processes.
v0.0.1 allows pipelines and fanouts (w/optional fan in) and support
for OTP sys commands on co-op processes.
Hopefully v0.0.2 will be out before the end of Nov with a real
example showing asynchronous gen_tcp behaviour as a
Co-op Service.
