mpsc

MPSC is an implementation of a multi-producer/single-consumer channel. This is useful if you only ever consume a channel from within a single fiber.

MPSC channels are unbounded. Calling send will never block.

Note: This shard is not suitable for consuming the same channel from multiple fibers, even if they don't consume it concurrently. Once you call receive from a fiber, the receiving end of the channel is locked to that fiber.

Installation

1. Add the dependency to your shard.yml:

   dependencies:
     mpsc:
       github: jgaskins/mpsc
   

2. Run shards install

Usage

require "mpsc"

channel = MPSC::Channel(String).new

spawn channel.send "hello"

channel.receive # "hello"
