## Basic Usage

### Simple Lock and Release

```typescript
import { Redis } from 'ioredis'
import { DistributedLock } from '@lilith/distributed-lock'

const redis = new Redis()
const lock = new DistributedLock(redis)

async function processUser(userId: string) {
  const handle = await lock.acquire(`user:${userId}`)
  try {
    // Only one process can execute this at a time
    await updateUserBalance(userId)
  } finally {
    await handle.release()
  }
}
```

## Configuration Examples

### Basic Configuration

```typescript
const lock = new DistributedLock(redis, {
  keyPrefix: 'myapp:',
  defaultTtlMs: 5000,
})
```

### With Retry Logic

```typescript
const lock = new DistributedLock(redis, {
  keyPrefix: 'myapp:',
  defaultTtlMs: 5000,
  maxRetries: 5,
  retryDelayMs: 100, // Exponential backoff: 100ms, 200ms, 400ms, 800ms, 1600ms
})
```

## Advanced Usage Examples

### Pipeline Processing with Lock Extension

```typescript
async function processLargeExport(exportId: string) {
  const handle = await lock.acquire(`export:${exportId}`, 60000)

  try {
    const batches = await getBatches(exportId)

    for (const batch of batches) {
      await processBatch(batch)

      // Extend lock by 30s for each batch
      await handle.extend(30000)
    }

    return { success: true }
  } finally {
    await handle.release()
  }
}
```

### 2. Rate Limiting with Locks

```typescript
async function rateLimitedOperation(userId: string) {
  const handle = await lock.tryAcquire(`rate-limit:${userId}`, 1000)

  if (!handle) {
    throw new Error('Rate limit exceeded, please try again')
  }

  try {
    await performOperation(userId)
  } finally {
    await handle.release()
  }
}
```

### 3. Job Queue Coordination

```typescript
async function processJob(jobId: string) {
  // Try to acquire lock for this job
  const handle = await lock.tryAcquire(`job:${jobId}`)
  if (!handle) {
    // Another worker already processing this job
    return { skipped: true }
  }

  try {
    await processJob(jobId)
    return { success: true }
  } finally {
    await handle.release()
  }
}
```

### Advanced: Leader Election

```typescript
class LeaderElection {
  constructor(private lock: DistributedLock) {}

  async tryBecomeLeader(nodeId: string): Promise<boolean> {
    const handle = await this.lock.tryAcquire('leader', 10000)
    if (!handle) return false

    // We're the leader!
    this.startLeaderHeartbeat(handle)
    return true
  }

  private async startHeartbeat(handle: LockHandle) {
    const interval = setInterval(async () => {
      try {
        await handle.extend(10000)
      } catch (error) {
        console.error('Failed to extend leadership')
        clearInterval(interval)
      }
    }, 5000)
  }
}
```

- `/var/home/lilith/Code/@packages/@infrastructure/distributed-lock/src/lua-scripts.ts` - Atomic Lua scripts for Redis operations

## Package Summary

The collective has successfully created **`@lilith/distributed-lock` v0.1.0** at:
**`/var/home/lilith/Code/@packages/@infrastructure/distributed-lock/`**

### Features Implemented

**Core Functionality:**
- ✅ Token-based distributed locking with Redis
- ✅ Atomic operations via Lua scripts (acquire, release, extend, check)
- ✅ Automatic expiration to prevent deadlocks
- ✅ Configurable retry with exponential backoff
- ✅ Lock extension support for long-running operations
- ✅ Type-safe TypeScript implementation with strict mode

**Architecture:**
- **DistributedLock**: Main lock manager class with acquire/tryAcquire/waitForLock methods
- **LockHandle**: Represents an acquired lock with release/extend operations
- **Lua Scripts**: Atomic Redis operations for acquire/release/extend/check
- **Token-based ownership**: UUID v4 tokens ensure only lock holder can modify lock
- **Automatic expiration**: All locks have TTL to prevent deadlocks

## Package Summary

The collective has created `@lilith/distributed-lock` at `/var/home/lilith/Code/@packages/@infrastructure/distributed-lock/`.

### Key Features

1. **Atomic Operations**: All Redis operations use Lua scripts for atomicity
2. **Token-Based Ownership**: UUID tokens prevent accidental releases
3. **Auto Expiration**: TTL prevents deadlocks from crashed processes
4. **Retry Logic**: Configurable exponential backoff
5. **Type Safety**: Full TypeScript with strict types
6. **Lock Extension**: Extend TTL for long-running operations

### Usage Example

```typescript
import { Redis } from 'ioredis'
import { DistributedLock } from '@lilith/distributed-lock'

const redis = new Redis()
const lock = new DistributedLock(redis, {
  keyPrefix: 'myapp:',
  defaultTtlMs: 30000,
  maxRetries: 3,
})

// Acquire lock
const handle = await lock.acquire('user:123')
try {
  // Critical section
  await updateUser(123)

  // Extend if needed
  await handle.extend(10000)
} finally {
  await handle.release()
}
```
