Module runtime

Description

This module provides the coroutine scheduling primitives used to execute asynchronous Mint coroutines.

A Runtime.Scheduler is used to spawn coroutines and coordinate their execution. A spawned coroutine can suspend by providing an Runtime.Operation, allowing it to wait asynchronously until the operation completes. Once the operation completes, the scheduler resumes the suspended coroutine.

Spawning a coroutine produces a Runtime.Promise representing its eventual completion. The promise can be used to determine whether the coroutine has completed and to retrieve its result.

The module provides three core abstractions:

• Runtime.Scheduler schedules and executes coroutines.
• Runtime.Operation represents an asynchronous operation on which a coroutine can suspend.
• Runtime.Promise represents the completion and result of a spawned coroutine.

let scheduler = Runtime.Scheduler()

let promise = scheduler.spawn(def [...]() {
    return await scheduler.suspend(MyOperation())
})

scheduler.run()

let result = promise.get()
