tokio-compat's Introduction

Tokio Compat

Compatibility layers between tokio 0.2 and legacy versions.

Overview

This crate provides compatibility runtimes that allow running both futures 0.1 futures that use tokio 0.1 runtime services and std::future futures that use tokio 0.2 runtime services.

Examples

Spawning both tokio 0.1 and tokio 0.2 futures:

use futures_01::future::lazy;

tokio_compat::run(lazy(|| {
    // spawn a `futures` 0.1 future using the `spawn` function from the
    // `tokio` 0.1 crate:
    tokio_01::spawn(lazy(|| {
        println!("hello from tokio 0.1!");
        Ok(())
    }));

    // spawn an `async` block future on the same runtime using `tokio`
    // 0.2's `spawn`:
    tokio_02::spawn(async {
        println!("hello from tokio 0.2!");
    });

    Ok(())
}))

Futures on the compat runtime can use timer APIs from both 0.1 and 0.2 versions of tokio:

use std::time::{Duration, Instant};
use futures_01::future::lazy;
use tokio_compat::prelude::*;

tokio_compat::run_std(async {
    // Wait for a `tokio` 0.1 `Delay`...
    let when = Instant::now() + Duration::from_millis(10);
    tokio_01::timer::Delay::new(when)
        // convert the delay future into a `std::future` that we can `await`.
        .compat()
        .await
        .expect("tokio 0.1 timer should work!");
    println!("10 ms have elapsed");

    // Wait for a `tokio` 0.2 `Delay`...
    let when = Instant::now() + Duration::from_millis(20);
    tokio_02::timer::delay(when).await;
    println!("20 ms have elapsed");
});
