futures-spawn
An abstraction for values that spawn futures.
Overview
futures-rs provides a task abstraction and the ability for custom executors to manage how future execution is scheduled across them.
futures-spawn provides an abstraction representing the act of spawning a
future. This enables writing code that is not hard coded to a specific
executor.
Roadmap
Ideally, this crate will be merged into futures-rs proper.
Usage
First, add this to your Cargo.toml:
[dependencies]
futures-spawn = "0.1"Or, to use without pulling in tokio-core, add this to your Cargo.toml file:
[dependencies.futures-spawn]
version = "0.1"
default-features = false
features = ["use_std"]Next, add this to your crate:
extern crate futures_spawn;And then, spawn some futures!
