standardgalactic / mioco

[no longer maintained] Scalable, coroutine-based, fibers/green-threads for Rust. (aka MIO COroutines).

Documentation

mioco

Mioco provides green-threads (aka fibers) like eg. Goroutines in Go, for Rust.

Status

This repo is a complete re-implementation of mioco. The code of previous versions was moved to mioco.pre-0.9.

The goals of new implementation:

• switch to latest mio version
• copy all the applicable good ideas from tokio reactor code
• simplify the approach
  • remove the exposed scheduler
• model the API to be more like std library, less like mio
• focus on synchronization primitives first
• support async file IO (via worker threads)
• port all the existing mioco features, tests, examples etc.
