(** Lwt_engine-based event loop for Moonpool.
In what follows, we mean by "lwt thread" the thread
running [Lwt_main.run] (so, the thread where the Lwt event
loop and all Lwt callbacks execute).
@since NEXT_RELEASE *)
module Fiber = Moonpool_fib.Fiber
module FLS = Moonpool_fib.Fls
(** {2 Basic conversions} *)
val fut_of_lwt : 'a Lwt.t -> 'a Moonpool.Fut.t
(** [fut_of_lwt lwt_fut] makes a thread-safe moonpool future that
completes when [lwt_fut] does. This must be run from within
the Lwt thread. *)
val lwt_of_fut : 'a Moonpool.Fut.t -> 'a Lwt.t
(** [lwt_of_fut fut] makes a lwt future that completes when
[fut] does. This must be called from the Lwt thread, and the result
must always be used only from inside the Lwt thread. *)
(** {2 Helpers on the moonpool side} *)
val await_lwt : 'a Lwt.t -> 'a
(** [await_lwt fut] awaits a Lwt future from inside a task running on
a moonpool runner. This must be run from within a Moonpool runner
so that the await-ing effect is handled. *)
val run_in_lwt : (unit -> 'a Lwt.t) -> 'a Moonpool.Fut.t
(** [run_in_lwt f] runs [f()] from within the Lwt thread
and returns a thread-safe future. This can be run from anywhere. *)
val run_in_lwt_and_await : (unit -> 'a Lwt.t) -> 'a
(** [run_in_lwt_and_await f] runs [f] in the Lwt thread, and
awaits its result. Must be run from inside a moonpool runner
so that the await-in effect is handled.
This is similar to [Moonpool.await @@ run_in_lwt f]. *)
val get_runner : unit -> Moonpool.Runner.t
(** Returns the runner from within which this is called.
Must be run from within a fiber.
@raise Failure if not run within a fiber *)
(** {2 IO} *)
(** IO using the Lwt event loop.
These IO operations work on non-blocking file descriptors
and rely on a [Lwt_engine] event loop being active (meaning,
[Lwt_main.run] is currently running in some thread).
Calling these functions must be done from a moonpool runner.
A function like [read] will first try to perform the IO action
directly (here, call {!Unix.read}); if the action fails because
the FD is not ready, then [await_readable] is called:
it suspends the fiber and subscribes it to Lwt to be awakened
when the FD becomes ready.
