Feature Request: Support async flows by creating a DAG #6

Open barkerd427 opened 9 years ago

barkerd427 commented 9 years ago

It would be awesome if this could be modified to execute the steps via a DAG. This would require explicit statements about what step is required to complete prior to each step, but this would allow for multiple steps that don't need to wait and provide input to different steps to all run at the same time. I don't know how feasible that is with the current code. If this is already possible, then I must have missed the docs on that.

Awesome job with this. I've been waiting for you guys to release this, and it looks really cool.

@barkerd427 You didn't miss anything in the docs, but I totally agree, this would be an awesome feature. This is something we've talked about internally as a potential next step for Dray. Knowing that there is interest definitely helps us prioritize future work like this. Thanks for the feedback.
