Tomolink is an open source friend/block/relationship service for games. It allows you to store, retrieve, and delete arbitrary directed relationships at scale.
Tomolink can track a user's friends, the influencers they follow, and the other users they have chosen to block in its default configuration, but by arbitrary, we mean it: you can choose nearly any string to represent a relationship you want to track. Do you want to track that one user supports another, or has a certain level of distrust, or has a friendRequestPending? Tomolink can help! Not only does it offer flexibility in the type of relationships you want to track, Tomolink stores all relationships with an associated integer score. This allows you to track the significance of the relationship in addition to it's existence, and enables many exciting possibilities! For more details on how to use Tomolink effectively, see the User Guide.
Note that Tomolink is architected on top of Google Cloud Platform managed products, to minimize any administration and management overhead. For most use cases, setting up Tomolink is as simple as signing up for GCP, creating a project, enabling the products used by Tomolink, and running a couple of commands to start the service. It is designed to be cost-efficient for nearly all pertinent commercial game use cases.
