Async version of Rust's standard library

Build Status License Cargo Documentation chat

This crate provides an async version of std. It provides all the interfaces you are used to, but in an async version and ready for Rust's async/await syntax.

Documentation

async-std comes with extensive API documentation and a book.

Quickstart

Add the following lines to you Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
async-std = "0.99"

Or use cargo add if you have it installed:

$ cargo add async-std

Hello world

use async_std::task;

fn main() {
    task::block_on(async {
        println!("Hello, world!");
    })
}

Low-Friction Sockets with Built-In Timeouts

use std::time::Duration;

use async_std::{
    prelude::*,
    task,
    io,
    net::TcpStream,
};

async fn get() -> io::Result<Vec<u8>> {
    let mut stream = TcpStream::connect("example.com:80").await?;
    stream.write_all(b"GET /index.html HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n").await?;

    let mut buf = vec![];

    io::timeout(Duration::from_secs(5), async {
        stream.read_to_end(&mut buf).await?;
        Ok(buf)
    }).await
}

fn main() {
    task::block_on(async {
        let raw_response = get().await.expect("request");
        let response = String::from_utf8(raw_response)
            .expect("utf8 conversion");
        println!("received: {}", response);
    });
}

Take a look around
