Async::Await

Implements the async/await pattern for Ruby using async.

Installation

bundle add async-await

Usage

In any asynchronous context (e.g. a reactor), simply use the await function like so:

require 'async/await'

class Coop
	include Async::Await
	
	async def count_chickens(area_name)
		3.times do |i|
			sleep rand
			
			puts "Found a chicken in the #{area_name}!"
		end
	end

	async def count_all_chickens
		# These methods all run at the same time.
		count_chickens("garden")
		count_chickens("house")
		
		# We wait for the result
		count_chickens("tree").wait
	end
end

coop = Coop.new
coop.count_all_chickens
