Module workflow_rs::core::task

task module provides helper functions for use with async closures that operate uniformly in native (tokio-backed) and WASM (async_std-backed) environments (i.e. a web browser).

Following functions are are available:

• spawn() - non-blocking spawn of the supplied async closure
• sleep() - suspends the task for a given Duration
• yield_now() - yields rust executor
• yield_executor() - yields to top-level executor (browser async loop)

Blocking spawn is not available as a part of this framework as WASM-browser environment can
not block task execution due to a single-threaded async application environment.

Modules

• wasm
  WASM implementation

Macros

• call_async_no_send

Structs

• Interval
  Interval stream used by the interval() function to provide a a time interval stream. The stream is backed by tokio interval stream on native platforms and by by the JavaScript setInterval() and clearInterval() APIs in WASM32 environment.

Functions

• dispatch
• interval
  async interval() function backed by the JavaScript createInterval()
• sleep
  Waits until duration has elapsed.
• spawn
• yield_executor
  Yields execution back to the Tokio runtime.
• yield_now
  Yields execution back to the Tokio runtime.
