Trait Task 

pub trait Task: Send + Sync {
    // Required method
    fn execute<'life0, 'life1, 'async_trait>(
        &'life0 mut self,
        state: &'life1 mut State,
    ) -> Pin<Box<dyn Future<Output = Result<Transition, Error>> + Send + 'async_trait>>
       where Self: 'async_trait,
             'life0: 'async_trait,
             'life1: 'async_trait;
}

Executable task

Automatons execute a series of tasks. Each task should only perform a single, logical step and then return the next task.

Tasks can share data with each other by putting it into the shared state.

If a task determines that no more work needs to be done, it can complete the automaton early by returning a Transition with the Complete variant.

Required Methods

fn execute<'life0, 'life1, 'async_trait>( &'life0 mut self, state: &'life1 mut State, ) -> Pin<Box<dyn Future<Output = Result<Transition, Error>> + Send + 'async_trait>>

where Self: 'async_trait, 'life0: 'async_trait, 'life1: 'async_trait,

Executes the task.

Tasks can perform arbitrary units of work. They are executed asynchronously to avoid blocking the thread when waiting for external resources. Tasks return a Result with a Transition, which tells the engine whether to continue, handle an unexpected failure, or return early since there is no more work to be done.
