Funky!

Funky allows you to fire any function that implements Sync + Send quickly into a thread. The thread takes ownership of any arguments passed into the macro.

The macro returns a mpsc::Receiver on which you can block until you have the result.

Installation

Add to your Cargo.toml

funky = *

And run cargo install

Usage

Add to your main or lib file:

#[macro_use]
extern crate funky;

An example with no arguments:

let func = || -> String {
  "abc".to_string()
};

let rx = funky!(func);
assert_eq!(rx.recv().unwrap(), "abc".to_string())

And with many arguments:

let func = |string: String| -> String {
  string
};

let rx = funky!(func, "abc".to_string());
assert_eq!(rx.recv().unwrap(), "abc".to_string())
