Consistency

Consistency is configured through LioranManagerOptions.consistency (advanced).

This is mainly useful when you have a leader + replicas and need to choose between:

• always reading locally (fastest), and
• forcing reads to be “fresh enough” (safer), and
• forcing reads to be leader-only (strongest).

Configure bounded staleness

import { LioranManager } from "@liorandb/core";

const manager = new LioranManager({
  rootPath: "./.liorandb",
  consistency: {
    reads: {
      mode: "bounded_stale",
      maxLagMs: 250,
      // optional: if bounded is violated, fall back to stale_ok instead of throwing
      autoDegradeToStaleOk: true,
    },
  },
});

Modes

• stale_ok: always serve reads locally.
• bounded_stale: serve from replicas only if the lag is within configured bounds.
• leader_only: replicas reject reads; clients must talk to leader.
