Function minus::async_std_updating

pub async fn async_std_updating(mutex: Lines)

Initialize a updating pager inside a async_std task

This function is only available when async_std_lib feature is enabled It takes a Lines and updates the page with new information when Lines is updated This function switches to the Alternate Screen of the TTY and switches to raw mode

Example

use std::sync::{Arc, Mutex};
use futures::join;
use std::time::Duration;

#[async_std::main]
async fn main() {
    let output = Arc::new(Mutex::new(String::new()));
    let push_data = async {
        for i in 1..=100 {
            let mut guard = output.lock().unwrap();
            guard.push_str(&i.to_string());
            // If you have furthur asynchronous blocking code, drop the borrow here
            drop(guard);
            // Some asynchronous blocking code
            async_std::task::sleep(Duration::new(1,0)).await;
        }
   };
   join!(minus::async_std_updating(output.clone()), push_data);
}

Please do note that you should never lock the output data, since this will cause the paging thread to be paused. Only borrow it when it is required and drop it if you have furthur asynchronous blocking code
