Catalog overview
This catalog details the modular processing units available in the fluxrig ecosystem.
Native built-ins
These gears are mature, optimized, and available for production use in the current core release.
- Bento gear: Universal I/O using the mature Bento engine. The standard binary carries Pure Logic and Local I/O. Institutional connectors need a custom build.
- ISO8583 I/O gear: TCP socket with length-prefixed framing.
- TCP I/O gear: Generic TCP I/O with delimiter-based framing (ingress/egress).
- ISO8583 codec gear: Standardized parser for ISO8583 financial dialects.
- Coat Check gear: Implements the "detached state" pattern for asynchronous correlation.
- Wasm logic gear: User-defined logic extensions via WebAssembly. The Filter role is available today. Polyglot source gears are roadmap.
- Conductor gear: Transaction switching, connection routing plus reply correlation over the valet ticket store. It generalizes the Coat Check.
Commercial gears
A separate licence covers these gears: the Business Source License 1.1. The source is source-available: free to read, and free to use outside production. Production use, including your own traffic, needs a commercial licence. See the enterprise offering for what that means in practice.
- sim_source gear: Deterministic ISO8583 traffic generator, driven by a spec's simulation section.
- sim_responder gear: Authorizer simulator with spec-derived responses and conditional decline rules.
- sim_validator gear [Roadmap]: Companion to
sim_source. It correlates, checks and measures the replies to generated traffic.
Roadmap
These gears are currently in the Architectural Proposal or Early Beta phase.
- Correlator gear [Roadmap]: Parallel shadow mastering / differential analysis (distinct from the Conductor's reply matching).
- Modbus I/O gear [Roadmap]: Direct PLC integration (Modbus/TCP & RTU).
- LoRaWAN I/O gear [Roadmap]: Integrated LNS-less sensor connectivity.
- Zigbee I/O gear [Roadmap]: Industrial automation connectivity.
- Network sniffer [Roadmap]: Passive network tap (AF_PACKET).
- Observability gears [Roadmap]: Native connectors for external APM backends.
