microasync

MicroAsync is a tiny async "runtime" for rust, created when I was very bothered by a library that was fully async, but my code was all written synchronously.

Use-case

Let's say you have a sync function here, and there's an async function you want to run, but oh no! It doesn't work, because the function is async and your function isn't!

Here's where microasync::sync comes into play.

It synchronizes a single async function, returning its result as if it was a normal function. For this, a tiny, single-threaded async "runtime" is created, that runs this one task, and then stops.

Example

use microasync::sync;

fn main() {
    //println!("{}", do_sth_async(1000).await);

    println!("{}", sync(do_sth_async(1000)).unwrap());
}

async fn add_async(a: i32, b: i32) -> i32 {
    a + b
}

async fn do_sth_async(i: i32) -> i32 {
    add_async(i, i * 4).await
}
