This has been one of the most anticipated features for async-std, and we're excited to be providing a first version of this! In addition to channels, this patch has the regular list of new methods, types, and doc fixes. ## Examples __Send and receive items from a channel__ ```rust // Create a bounded channel with a max-size of 1 let (s, r) = channel(1); // This call returns immediately because there is enough space in the channel. s.send(1).await; task::spawn(async move { // This call blocks the current task because the channel is full. // It will be able to complete only after the first message is received. s.send(2).await; }); // Receive items from the channel task::sleep(Duration::from_secs(1)).await; assert_eq!(r.recv().await, Some(1)); assert_eq!(r.recv().await, Some(2)); ``` ## Added - Added `Future::delay` as "unstable" - Added `Stream::flat_map` as "unstable" - Added `Stream::flatten` as "unstable" - Added `Stream::product` as "unstable" - Added `Stream::sum` as "unstable" - Added `Stream::min_by_key` - Added `Stream::max_by` - Added `Stream::timeout` as "unstable" - Added `sync::channel` as "unstable". - Added doc links from instantiated structs to the methods that create them. - Implemented `Extend` + `FromStream` for `PathBuf`. ## Changed - Fixed an issue with `block_on` so it works even when nested. - Fixed issues with our Clippy check on CI. - Replaced our uses of `cfg_if` with our own macros, simplifying the codebase. - Updated the homepage link in `Cargo.toml` to point to [async.rs](https://async.rs). - Updated the module-level documentation for `stream` and `sync`. - Various typos and grammar fixes. - Removed redundant file flushes, improving the performance of `File` operations ## Removed Nothing was removed in this release. # [0.99.10] - 2019-10-16 This patch stabilizes several core concurrency macros, introduces async versions of `Path` and `PathBuf`, and adds almost 100 other commits. ## Examples __Asynchronously read directories from the filesystem__ ```rust use async_std::fs; use async_std::path::Path; use async_std::prelude::*; let path = Path::new("/laputa"); let mut dir = fs::read_dir(&path).await.unwrap(); while let Some(entry) = dir.next().await { if let Ok(entry) = entry { println!("{:?}", entry.path()); } } ``` __Cooperatively reschedule the current task on the executor__ ```rust use async_std::prelude::*; use async_std::task; task::spawn(async { let x = fibonnacci(1000); // Do expensive work task::yield_now().await; // Allow other tasks to run x + fibonnacci(100) // Do more work }) ``` __Create an interval stream__ ```rust use async_std::prelude::*; use async_std::stream; use std::time::Duration; let mut interval = stream::interval(Duration::from_secs(4)); while let Some(_) = interval.next().await { println!("prints every four seconds"); } ``` ## Added - Added `FutureExt` to the `prelude`, allowing us to extend `Future` - Added `Stream::cmp` - Added `Stream::ge` - Added `Stream::last` - Added `Stream::le` - Added `Stream::lt` - Added `Stream::merge` as "unstable", replacing `stream::join!` - Added `Stream::partial_cmp` - Added `Stream::take_while` - Added `Stream::try_fold` - Added `future::IntoFuture` as "unstable" - Added `io::BufRead::split` - Added `io::Write::write_fmt` - Added `print!`, `println!`, `eprint!`, `eprintln!` macros as "unstable" - Added `process` as "unstable", re-exporting std types only for now - Added `std::net` re-exports to the `net` submodule - Added `std::path::PathBuf` with all associated methods - Added `std::path::Path` with all associated methods - Added `stream::ExactSizeStream` as "unstable" - Added `stream::FusedStream` as "unstable" - Added `stream::Product` - Added `stream::Sum` - Added `stream::from_fn` - Added `stream::interval` as "unstable" - Added `stream::repeat_with` - Added `task::spawn_blocking` as "unstable", replacing `task::blocking` - Added `task::yield_now` - Added `write!` and `writeln!` macros as "unstable" - Stabilized `future::join!` and `future::try_join!` - Stabilized `future::timeout` - Stabilized `path` - Stabilized `task::ready!` ## Changed - Fixed `BufWriter::into_inner` so it calls `flush` before yielding - Refactored `io::BufWriter` internals - Refactored `net::ToSocketAddrs` internals - Removed Travis CI entirely - Rewrote the README.md - Stabilized `io::Cursor` - Switched bors over to use GitHub actions - Updated the `io` documentation to match std's `io` docs - Updated the `task` documentation to match std's `thread` docs ## Removed - Removed the "unstable" `stream::join!` in favor of `Stream::merge` - Removed the "unstable" `task::blocking` in favor of `task::spawn_blocking` # [0.99.9] - 2019-10-08 This patch upgrades our `futures-rs` version, allowing us to build on the 1.39 beta. Additionally we've introduced `map` and `for_each` to `Stream`. And we've added about a dozen new `FromStream` implementations for `std` types, bringing us up to par with std's `FromIterator` implementations. And finally we've added a new "unstable" `task::blocking` function which can be used to convert blocking code into async code using a threadpool. We've been using this internally for a while now to async-std to power our `fs` and `net::SocketAddr` implementations. With this patch userland code now finally has access to this too. ## Example __Create a stream of tuples, and collect into a hashmap__ ```rust let a = stream::once(1u8); let b = stream::once(0u8); let s = a.zip(b); let map: HashMap = s.collect().await; assert_eq!(map.get(&1), Some(&0u8)); ``` __Spawn a blocking task on a dedicated threadpool__ ```rust task::blocking(async { println!("long-running task here"); }).await; ``` ## Added - Added `stream::Stream::map` - Added `stream::Stream::for_each` - Added `stream::Stream::try_for_each` - Added `task::blocking` as "unstable" - Added `FromStream` for all `std::{option, collections, result, string, sync}` types. - Added the `path` submodule as "unstable". ## Changed - Updated `futures-preview` to `0.3.0-alpha.19`, allowing us to build on `rustc 1.39.0-beta`. - As a consequence of this upgrade, all of our concrete stream implementations now make use of `Stream::size_hint` to optimize internal allocations. - We now use GitHub Actions through [actions-rs](https://github.com/actions-rs), in addition to Travis CI. We intend to fully switch in the near future. - Fixed a bug introduced in 0.99.6 where Unix Domain Listeners would sometimes become unresponsive. - Updated our `sync::Barrier` docs to match std. - Updated our `stream::FromStream` docs to match std's `FromIterator`. # [0.99.8] - 2019-09-28 ## Added - Added README to examples directory. - Added concurrency documentation to the futures submodule. - Added `io::Read::take` method. - Added `io::Read::by_ref` method. - Added `io::Read::chain` method. ## Changed - Pin futures-preview to `0.3.0-alpha.18`, to avoid rustc upgrade problems. - Simplified extension traits using a macro. - Use the `broadcast` module with `std::sync::Mutex`, reducing dependencies. # [0.99.7] - 2019-09-26 ## Added - Added `future::join` macro as "unstable" - Added `future::select` macro as "unstable" - Added `future::try_join` macro as "unstable" - Added `future::try_select` macro as "unstable" - Added `io::BufWriter` struct - Added `stream::Extend` trait - Added `stream::Stream::chain` method - Added `stream::Stream::filter` method - Added `stream::Stream::inspect` method - Added `stream::Stream::skip_while` method - Added `stream::Stream::skip` method - Added `stream::Stream::step_by` method - Added `sync::Arc` struct from stdlib - Added `sync::Barrier` struct as "unstable" - Added `sync::Weak` struct from stdlib - Added `task::ready` macro as "unstable" ## Changed - Correctly marked the `pin` submodule as "unstable" in the docs - Updated tutorial to have certain functions suffixed with `_loop` - `io` traits are now re-exports of futures-rs types, allowing them to be implemented - `stream` traits are now re-exports of futures-rs types, allowing them to be implemented - `prelude::*` now needs to be in scope for functions `io` and `stream` traits to work # [0.99.6] - 2019-09-19 ## Added - Added `stream::Stream::collect` as "unstable" - Added `stream::Stream::enumerate` - Added `stream::Stream::fuse` - Added `stream::Stream::fold` - Added `stream::Stream::scan` - Added `stream::Stream::zip` - Added `stream::join` macro as "unstable" - Added `stream::DoubleEndedStream` as "unstable" - Added `stream::FromStream` trait as "unstable" - Added `stream::IntoStream` trait as "unstable" - Added `io::Cursor` as "unstable" - Added `io::BufRead::consume` method - Added `io::repeat` - Added `io::Slice` and `io::SliceMut` - Added documentation for feature flags - Added `pin` submodule as "unstable" - Added the ability to `collect` a stream of `Result`s into a `Result, E>` ## Changed - Refactored the scheduling algorithm of our executor to use work stealing - Refactored the network driver, removing 400 lines of code - Removed the `Send` bound from `task::block_on` - Removed `Unpin` bound from `impl Stream for T` # [0.99.5] - 2019-09-12 ## Added - Added tests for `io::timeout` - Added `io::BufRead::fill_buf`, an `async fn` counterpart to `poll_fill_buf` - Added `fs::create_dir_all` - Added `future::timeout`, a free function to time out futures after a threshold - Added `io::prelude` - Added `net::ToSocketAddrs`, a non-blocking version of std's `ToSocketAddrs` - Added `stream::Stream::all` - Added `stream::Stream::filter_map` - Added `stream::Stream::find_map` - Added `stream::Stream::find` - Added `stream::Stream::min_by` - Added `stream::Stream::nth` ## Changed - Polished the text and examples of the tutorial - `cargo fmt` on all examples - Simplified internals of `TcpStream::connect_to` - Modularized our CI setup, enabled a rustfmt fallback, and improved caching - Reduced our dependency on the `futures-rs` crate, improving compilation times - Split `io::Read`, `io::Write`, `io::BufRead`, and `stream::Stream` into multiple files - `fs::File` now flushes more often to prevent flushes during `seek` - Updated all dependencies - Fixed a bug in the conversion of `File` into raw handle - Fixed compilation errors on the latest nightly ## Removed # [0.99.4] - 2019-08-21 ## Changes - Many small changes in the book, mostly typos - Documentation fixes correcting examples - Now works with recent nightly with stabilised async/await (> 2019-08-21) # [0.99.3] - 2019-08-16 - Initial beta release [Unreleased]: https://github.com/async-rs/async-std/compare/v0.99.11...HEAD [0.99.10]: https://github.com/async-rs/async-std/compare/v0.99.10...v0.99.11 [0.99.10]: https://github.com/async-rs/async-std/compare/v0.99.9...v0.99.10 [0.99.9]: https://github.com/async-rs/async-std/compare/v0.99.8...v0.99.9 [0.99.8]: https://github.com/async-rs/async-std/compare/v0.99.7...v0.99.8 [0.99.7]: https://github.com/async-rs/async-std/compare/v0.99.6...v0.99.7 [0.99.6]: https://github.com/async-rs/async-std/compare/v0.99.5...v0.99.6 [0.99.5]: https://github.com/async-rs/async-std/compare/v0.99.4...v0.99.5 [0.99.4]: https://github.com/async-rs/async-std/compare/v0.99.3...v0.99.4 [0.99.3]: https://github.com/async-rs/async-std/tree/v0.99.3
