Struct tokio::sync::mpsc::Receiver[−][src]

pub struct Receiver<T> { /* fields omitted */ }

Expand description

Receive values from the associated Sender.

Instances are created by the channel function.

This receiver can be turned into a Stream using ReceiverStream.

Implementations

[src]

impl<T> Receiver<T>

[src]

pub async fn recv(&mut self) -> Option<T>

Receives the next value for this receiver.

This method returns None if the channel has been closed and there are no remaining messages in the channel’s buffer. This indicates that no further values can ever be received from this Receiver. The channel is closed when all senders have been dropped, or when close is called.

If there are no messages in the channel’s buffer, but the channel has not yet been closed, this method will sleep until a message is sent or the channel is closed.

Note that if close is called, but there are still outstanding Permits from before it was closed, the channel is not considered closed by recv until the permits are released.

Examples

use tokio::sync::mpsc;

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
    let (tx, mut rx) = mpsc::channel(100);

    tokio::spawn(async move {
        tx.send("hello").await.unwrap();
    });

    assert_eq!(Some("hello"), rx.recv().await);
    assert_eq!(None, rx.recv().await);
}

Values are buffered:

use tokio::sync::mpsc;

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
    let (tx, mut rx) = mpsc::channel(100);

    tx.send("hello").await.unwrap();
    tx.send("world").await.unwrap();

    assert_eq!(Some("hello"), rx.recv().await);
    assert_eq!(Some("world"), rx.recv().await);
}

[src]

pub fn blocking_recv(&mut self) -> Option<T>

Blocking receive to call outside of asynchronous contexts.

This method returns None if the channel has been closed and there are no remaining messages in the channel’s buffer. This indicates that no further values can ever be received from this Receiver. The channel is closed when all senders have been dropped, or when close is called.

If there are no messages in the channel’s buffer, but the channel has not yet been closed, this method will block until a message is sent or the channel is closed.

This method is intended for use cases where you are sending from asynchronous code to synchronous code, and will work even if the sender is not using blocking_send to send the message.

Note that if close is called, but there are still outstanding Permits from before it was closed, the channel is not considered closed by blocking_recv until the permits are released.

Panics

This function panics if called within an asynchronous execution context.

Examples

use std::thread;
use tokio::runtime::Runtime;
use tokio::sync::mpsc;

fn main() {
    let (tx, mut rx) = mpsc::channel::<u8>(10);

    let sync_code = thread::spawn(move || {
        assert_eq!(Some(10), rx.blocking_recv());
    });

    Runtime::new()
        .unwrap()
        .block_on(async move {
            let _ = tx.send(10).await;
        });
    sync_code.join().unwrap()
}

[src]

pub fn close(&mut self)

Closes the receiving half of a channel without dropping it.

This prevents any further messages from being sent on the channel while still enabling the receiver to drain messages that are buffered. Any outstanding Permit values will still be able to send messages.

To guarantee that no messages are dropped, after calling close(), recv() must be called until None is returned. If there are outstanding Permit or OwnedPermit values, the recv method will not return None until those are released.

Examples

use tokio::sync::mpsc;

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
    let (tx, mut rx) = mpsc::channel(20);

    tokio::spawn(async move {
        let mut i = 0;
        while let Ok(permit) = tx.reserve().await {
            permit.send(i);
            i += 1;
        }
    });

    rx.close();

    while let Some(msg) = rx.recv().await {
        println!("got {}", msg);
    }

    // Channel closed and no messages are lost.
}

[src]

pub fn poll_recv(&mut self, cx: &mut Context<'_>) -> Poll<Option<T>>

Polls to receive the next message on this channel.

This method returns:

Poll::Pending if no messages are available but the channel is not closed.
Poll::Ready(Some(message)) if a message is available.
Poll::Ready(None) if the channel has been closed and all messages sent before it was closed have been received.

When the method returns Poll::Pending, the Waker in the provided Context is scheduled to receive a wakeup when a message is sent on any receiver, or when the channel is closed. Note that on multiple calls to poll_recv, only the Waker from the Context passed to the most recent call is scheduled to receive a wakeup.
