Struct CurationEngine

pub struct CurationEngine { /* private fields */ }

Core engine that validates and persists DecisionRecords into the Dolt‑backed graph.

Why

Centralising curation logic ensures a single place for validation and storage semantics, keeping the rest of the codebase agnostic of the graph implementation details.

Implementations

impl CurationEngine

pub fn new(graph: DoltGraph) -> Self

Creates a new CurationEngine bound to the supplied DoltGraph.

The engine holds a reference to the graph for the lifetime of the instance; callers are responsible for providing a correctly initialised graph.

pub fn curate_decision(&self, dr: DecisionRecord) -> Result<(), SlurpError>

Validates the citations in dr and persists the decision into the graph.

The method performs three steps:

1. Citation validation – each citation string is parsed into a UCXLAddress. Invalid citations produce a ValidationError.
2. Table assurance – attempts to create the curated_decisions table if it does not already exist. Errors are ignored because the table may already be present.
3. Insertion & commit – the decision is serialised to JSON and inserted as a node, then the graph transaction is committed.

Errors

Propagates any GraphError, serde_json::Error, or custom validation failures.
