ThreadQueues

Installation

ruby gem "thread_queues"

Usage

BlockingQueue

```ruby queue = ThreadQueues::BlockingQueue.new

Thread.new do 3.times do |count| queue.push(count) end

queue.close end

3.times do |count| queue.pop #=> 0|1|2 end

queue.pop #=> EOFError ```

BufferedQueue

Example buffered 5 results before blocking and waiting for results to be read.

```ruby queue = ThreadQueues::BufferedQueue.new(5)

Thread.new do 10.times do |count| queue.push(count) end

queue.close end

10.times do |count| queue.pop #=> 0|1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9 end

queue.pop #=> EOFError ```

StringBuffer

```ruby queue = ThreadQueues::BufferedQueue.new(5) string_buffer = ThreadQueues::StringBuffer.new(queue)

Thread.new do queue.push(“hel”) queue.push(“lo\n”) queue.push(“my\r\n”) queue.push(“nam”) queue.push(“e\n”) queue.push(“is kasper\n”) queue.close end ```

Get each line ruby string_buffer.gets #=> "hello\n" string_buffer.gets #=> "my\r\n" string_buffer.gets #=> "name\n" string_buffer.gets #=> "is kasper\n"

Get specified lengths ruby string_buffer.read(6) #=> "hello\n" string_buffer.read(4) #=> "my\r\n" string_buffer.read(5) #=> "name\n" string_buffer.read(10) #=> "is kasper\n"

Contributing to thread_queues

Check out the latest master to make sure the feature hasn’t been implemented or the bug hasn’t been fixed yet.
Check out the issue tracker to make sure someone already hasn’t requested it and/or contributed it.
Fork the project.
Start a feature/bugfix branch.
Commit and push until you are happy with your contribution.
Make sure to add tests for it. This is important so I don’t break it in a future version unintentionally.
Please try not to mess with the Rakefile, version, or history. If you want to have your own version, or is otherwise necessary, that is fine, but please isolate to its own commit so I can cherry-pick around it.
