Metorex

Fiber

ruby/spec describes 21 methods in core/fiber, and Metorex implements 20 of them. The parameters are what Method#parameters answers under Metorex.

Fiber#

  • Fiber.[]: implemented, parameters [[:req, :args]]. Returns the value of the fiber storage variable identified by key.
  • Fiber.[]=: implemented, parameters [[:req, :args]]. Assign value to the fiber storage variable identified by key.
  • Fiber#alive?: implemented, parameters []. Returns true if the fiber can still be resumed (or transferred to). An example calling it.
  • Fiber.blocking: implemented, parameters [[:req, :args]]. Forces the fiber to be blocking for the duration of the block.
  • Fiber#blocking?: implemented, parameters []. Returns true if fiber is blocking and false otherwise.
  • Fiber.blocking?: implemented, parameters [[:req, :args]]. Returns false if the current fiber is non-blocking.
  • Fiber.current: implemented, parameters [[:req, :args]]. Returns the current fiber. An example calling it.
  • Fiber.current_scheduler: implemented, parameters [[:req, :args]]. Returns the Fiber scheduler, that was last set for the current thread with Fiber.set_scheduler if and only if the current fiber is non-blocking. An example calling it.
  • Fiber#inspect: implemented, parameters []. An example calling it.
  • Fiber#kill: implemented, parameters []. Terminates the fiber by raising an uncatchable exception. An example calling it.
  • Fiber.new: implemented, parameters [[:rest]]. Creates new Fiber. An example calling it.
  • Fiber.new(storage:): not implemented.
  • Fiber#raise: implemented, parameters [[:rest, :arguments], [:keyrest, :options]]. Raises an exception in the fiber at the point at which the last Fiber.yield was called. An example calling it.
  • Fiber#resume: implemented, parameters [[:rest]]. Resumes the fiber from the point at which the last Fiber.yield was called, or starts running it if it is the first call to #resume. An example calling it.
  • Fiber.schedule: implemented, parameters [[:req, :args]]. The method is expected to immediately run the provided block of code in a separate non-blocking fiber. An example calling it.
  • Fiber.scheduler: implemented, parameters [[:req, :args]]. Returns the Fiber scheduler, that was last set for the current thread with Fiber.set_scheduler. An example calling it.
  • Fiber#storage: implemented, parameters []. Returns a copy of the storage hash for the fiber.
  • Fiber#storage=: implemented, parameters [[:req]]. Sets the storage hash for the fiber.
  • Fiber#transfer: implemented, parameters [[:rest]]. Transfer control to another fiber, resuming it from where it last stopped or starting it if it was not resumed before. An example calling it.
  • Fiber.yield: implemented, parameters [[:req, :args]]. Yields control back to the context that resumed the fiber, passing along any arguments that were passed to it. An example calling it.

Thread#

  • Thread.new: implemented, parameters [[:rest]]. Creates a new thread executing the given block. An example calling it.
