Instance Method Details

#any(event_or_future) ⇒ Future Also known as: |

Creates a new event which will be resolved when the first of receiver, event_or_future resolves. Returning future will have value nil if event_or_future is event and resolves first.

Returns:

# File 'lib/concurrent-ruby/concurrent/promises.rb', line 1074

def any(event_or_future)
  AnyResolvedFuturePromise.new_blocked_by2(self, event_or_future, @DefaultExecutor).future
end

#delay ⇒ Future

Creates new future dependent on receiver which will not evaluate until touched, see AbstractEventFuture#touch. In other words, it inserts delay into the chain of Futures making rest of it lazy evaluated.

Returns:

def delay
  event = DelayPromise.new(@DefaultExecutor).event
  ZipFutureEventPromise.new_blocked_by2(self, event, @DefaultExecutor).future
end

#exception(*args) ⇒ Exception

Allows rejected Future to be risen with raise method. If the reason is not an exception Runtime.new(reason) is returned.

Examples:

raise Promises.rejected_future(StandardError.new("boom"))
raise Promises.rejected_future("or just boom")

Returns:

  • (Exception)

end

#flat_event ⇒ Event

Creates new event which will be resolved when the returned event by receiver is. Be careful if the receiver rejects it will just resolve since Event does not hold reason.

#reason(timeout = nil, timeout_value = nil) ⇒ Object, timeout_value

Note:

This function potentially blocks current thread until the Future is resolved. Be careful it can deadlock. Try to chain instead.

Note:

Make sure returned nil is not confused with timeout, no value when rejected, no reason when fulfilled, etc. Use more exact methods if needed, like AbstractEventFuture#wait, #value!, #result, etc.

Returns reason of future's rejection. Calls AbstractEventFuture#touch.

Parameters:

  • timeout (Numeric) (defaults to: nil) —

    the maximum time in second to wait.

  • timeout_value (Object) (defaults to: nil) —

    a value returned by the method when it times out

Returns:

  • (Object, timeout_value) —

    the reason, or timeout_value on timeout, or nil on fulfillment.

end

#rescue_on(executor, *args) {|reason, *args| ... } ⇒ Future

Chains the task to be executed asynchronously on executor after it rejects. Does not run the task if it fulfills. It will resolve though, triggering any dependent futures.

Parameters:

  • executor (Executor, :io, :fast) —

    Instance of an executor or a name of the global executor. The task is executed on it, default executor remains unchanged.

  • args (Object) —

    arguments which are passed to the task when it's executed. (It might be prepended with other arguments, see the @yeild section).

Yields:

  • (reason, *args) —

    to the task.

Yield Returns:

  • will become result of the returned Future. Its returned value becomes #value fulfilling it, raised exception becomes #reason rejecting it.

Returns:

end

#result(timeout = nil) ⇒ Array(Boolean, Object, Object), nil

Note:

This function potentially blocks current thread until the Future is resolved. Be careful it can deadlock. Try to chain instead.

Returns triplet fulfilled?, value, reason. Calls AbstractEventFuture#touch.

Parameters:

  • timeout (Numeric) (defaults to: nil) —

    the maximum time in second to wait.

Returns:

  • (Array(Boolean, Object, Object), nil) —

    triplet of fulfilled?, value, reason, or nil on timeout.

def result(timeout = nil)
  internal_state.result if wait_until_resolved timeout
end

#run(run_test = method(:run_test)) ⇒ Future

Allows to use futures as green threads. The receiver has to evaluate to a future which represents what should be done next. It basically flattens indefinitely until non Future values is returned which becomes result of the returned future. Any encountered exception will become reason of the returned future.

Examples:

body = lambda do |v|
  v += 1
  v < 5 ? Promises.future(v, &body) : v
end
Promises.future(0, &body).run.value! # => 5

Parameters:

  • run_test (#call(value)) (defaults to: method(:run_test)) —

    an object which when called returns either Future to keep running with or nil, then the run completes with the value. The run_test can be used to extract the Future from deeper structure, or to distinguish Future which is a resulting value from a future which is suppose to continue running.

Returns:

# File 'lib/concurrent-ruby/concurrent/promises.rb', line 1199

def run(run_test = method(:run_test))
  RunFuturePromise.new_blocked_by1(self, @DefaultExecutor, run_test).future
end

#schedule(intended_time) ⇒ Future

Creates new event dependent on receiver scheduled to execute on/in intended_time. In time is interpreted from the moment the receiver is resolved, therefore it inserts delay into the chain.

Parameters:

  • intended_time (Numeric, Time) —

    Numeric means to run in intended_time seconds. Time means to run on intended_time.

Returns:

#then_on(executor, *args) {|value, *args| ... } ⇒ Future

Chains the task to be executed asynchronously on executor after it fulfills. Does not run the task if it rejects. It will resolve though, triggering any dependent futures.

Yields:

  • (value, *args) —

#value(timeout = nil, timeout_value = nil) ⇒ Object, nil, timeout_value

Note:

This function potentially blocks current thread until the Future is resolved. Be careful it can deadlock. Try to chain instead.

Return value of the future. Calls AbstractEventFuture#touch.

Parameters:

  • timeout (Numeric) (defaults to: nil) —

    the maximum time in second to wait.
