Event is a lightweight IO library for Rust with a focus on adding as little overhead as possible over the OS abstractions.
Getting started guide Currently a work in progress:
To use event_rust
, first add this to your Cargo.toml
:
[dependencies]
event_rust = "0.1.1"
Then, add this to your crate root:
extern crate event_rust;
Add empty event just do
extern crate event_rust;
use event_rust::EventLoop;
fn main() {
let mut event_loop = EventLoop::new().unwrap();
event_loop.run();
}
Add simple timer event just do
extern crate event_rust;
use event_rust::{EventLoop, EventEntry, EventFlags};
use std::ptr;
fn time_callback(ev : *mut EventLoop, fd : u64, _ : EventFlags, data : *mut ()) -> i32 {
println!("fd is {:?}", fd);
//return 0 status ok other will delete the timer
0
}
pub fn main() {
let mut event_loop : EventLoop = EventLoop::new().unwrap();
event_loop.add_timer(EventEntry::new_timer(100, false, Some(time_callback), Some( ptr::null_mut() )));
event_loop.add_timer(EventEntry::new_timer(200, true, Some(time_callback), Some( ptr::null_mut() )));
event_loop.run().unwrap();
}
- Event loop backed by epoll, windows by select.
- Non-blocking TCP sockets
- High performance timer system
Currently, event_rust only supports Linux and Windows. The goal is to support all platforms that support Rust and the readiness IO model.
