Return type of IAsyncEnumerable

[arinn1204]

Are there any plans to allow grains to return IAsyncEnumerable? Or is it going to be needed to have a Task<IAsyncEnumerable> for the future?

There are no firm plans to support it yet, but I would love to see it, as long as the semantics are well-defined.

There was previously a WIP PR for doing something similar, but with IAsyncObservable instead of IAsyncEnumerable: #1916

Looking forward to this one :)

We are marking this issue as stale due to the lack of activity in the past six months. If there is no further activity within two weeks, this issue will be closed. You can always create a new issue based on the guidelines provided in our pinned announcement.

same.

wanted to do something like a yield return on a setter grain method;

while a getter method on the grain can async read newly added items of the grain states
while new ones are being processed and added in the setter grain (Ienum input to be processed and stored).

[ReubenBond]

Yes, I'd very much like for us to have this, too. Hopefully we can squeeze it in somewhere

Thank you guys. This would be awesome! What is the best practice for this scenario for the time being though?

This is supported now, since Orleans v7.2.0: #8416
