bevy_tasks
A refreshingly simple task executor for bevy. :)
This is a simple threadpool with minimal dependencies. The main usecase is a scoped fork-join, i.e. spawning tasks from
a single thread and having that thread await the completion of those tasks. This is intended specifically for
bevy
as a lighter alternative to rayon
for this specific usecase. There are also utilities for
generating the tasks from a slice of data. This library is intended for games and makes no attempt to ensure fairness
or ordering of spawned tasks.
It is based on async-executor
, a lightweight executor that allows the end user to manage their own threads.
async-executor
is based on async-task, a core piece of async-std.

Modules
Structs
TaskPool
scope for running one or more non-'static
futures.async_executor::Task
, a spawned future.TaskPool
Traits
ParallelIterator
closely emulates the std::iter::Iterator
interface. However, it uses bevy_task
to compute batches in parallel.TaskPool
.TaskPool
.Functions
bevy_core
to tick the global tasks pools on the main thread.
This will run a maximum of 100 local tasks per executor per call to this function.
