Project Restructuring

Hi Guys, i’m currently planning a re-structuring to make this project more accessible and add a strictly defined structure that will foster further growth without adding layers of confusion & complexity. This is the first step toward making P-Brain a truly intelligent system.

The proposal is to re-structure the project to mirror that of the human brain. It could potentially look as follows:

Current Project Structure:

/api/
src/
src/
log/
docs/
skills/
test/
config/
server
yarn.lock
tremux.sh
README.md
Dockerfile
package.json

Proposed Project Structure:

lobes/
	/parietal - maps request to skill
	/temporal - Stores any memory based task such as name, location, own name etc
	/occipital - always running, self training which is constantly running and learning from responses and requests
	/frontal - natural language interpretation, acts on commands and queries 

stem - Contains the interface of the server, i/o for request:response pairs

cerebellum - any management task such as thread management, timing or synchronized activities live here

neurons - skills, extendible etc


yarn.lock - Package Management 

scripts/
	  /tremux.sh - Running the project on an Android device end-to-end

README.md - Project info
Dockerfile - Docker config 
package.json - Package and script manifest

@grantcodes I agree. Looks good. Make a PR when you’re ready 😃

This all sounds find with me, however you have to bear in mind that this server has to be client agnostic (we also have a raspberry Pi, iOS and Android client not jus the web client).

Also the skills need to be totally self contained, a skill developer should only need knowledge of how skills should work, their structure etc, they should not need to know any thing lower level than that

Otherwise you run the risk of creating a coupled system that can not be easily modified or expanded and will wind up as spaghetti code.

I’ve written enough crappy code to know what causes it (not saying what you’re proposing is bad, just to keep in mind 😃 )
