Progress reporting and cooperative task yielding in Rust
APACHE-2.0 License
YieldProgress
This library, yield-progress
, provides the YieldProgress
type, which allows a long-running async task to report its progress, while also yielding to the scheduler (e.g. for the single-threaded web/Wasm environment) and introducing cancellation points.
These things go together because the rate at which it makes sense to yield (to avoid event loop hangs) is similar to the rate at which it makes sense to report progress, at least for human interfaces.
YieldProgress
is executor-independent; when it is constructed, the caller may provide a functiontokio::task::yield_now()
,no_std
compatible if default features are disabled.yield-progress
has been split out of my larger project all-is-cubes
so that I can use it for other applications; its functionality and applicability may be limited, but I believe it is free of bugs.
