vi/tokio-stdin-stdout

AsyncRead/AsyncWrite stdin/stdout for legacy pre-0.1 Tokio

tokio-stdin-stdout

AsyncRead/AsyncWrite stdin/stdout for Tokio

Documentation - more description there

Example

let mut core = tokio_core::reactor::Core::new()?;

let stdin = tokio_stdin_stdout::stdin(0);
let stdout = tokio_stdin_stdout::stdout(0);

core.run(tokio_io::io::copy(stdin, stdout))?;

Additional examples

1. loop.rs - Write hello ten times
2. line-by-line.rs - Convert all input text to ASCII upper case, line by line. This example also demonstrates usage of tokio-codec and various modes of starting Tokio programs (multithreaded, singlethreaded).

async fn demo

Not much related to tokio-stdin-stdout, but there are some async fn examples runnable by cargo script.

They require nightly Rust.

• loop example as async fn v1 - The same as loop.rs above, but may be more readable.due to async fn backed by futures_await crate.
• line-by-line example as async fn v1 - The same as line-by-line.rs, but more prodecural-looking.
• loop example as async fn v3 - Another try with loop.rs, but this time using new async engine built-in in Rust itself. As it intrefaces early alpha code, it may stop working after a while.

Alternatives

1. tokio-stdin no AsyncRead, only stdin, byte by byte
2. tokio-file-unix - better, but only Unix
