Topic

abstract class Topic[F <: ([_$1] =>> Any), A]
Topic allows you to distribute As published by an arbitrary
number of publishers to an arbitrary number of subscribers.
Topic has built-in back-pressure support implemented as the maximum
number of elements (maxQueued) that a subscriber is allowed to enqueue.
Once that bound is hit, any publishing action will semantically
block until the lagging subscriber consumes some of its queued
elements.

Methods

def publish: (F, A) => Nothing
Publishes elements from source of A to this topic.
Pipe equivalent of publish1.
Closes the topic when the input stream terminates.
Especially useful when the topic has a single producer.
def publish1(a: A): F[Either[Closed, Unit]]
Publishes one A to topic.
No-op if the channel is closed, see close for further info.
This operation does not complete until after the given element
has been enqued on all subscribers, which means that if any
subscriber is at its maxQueued limit, publish1 will
semantically block until that subscriber consumes an element.
A semantically blocked publication can be interrupted, but there is
no guarantee of atomicity, and it could result in the A being
received by some subscribers only.
Note: if publish1 is called concurrently by multiple producers,
different subscribers may receive messages from different producers
in a different order.
def subscribe(maxQueued: Int): Stream[F, A]
Subscribes for A values that are published to this topic.
Pulling on the returned stream opens a "subscription", which allows up to
maxQueued elements to be enqueued as a result of publication.
If at any point, the queue backing the subscription has maxQueued elements in it,
any further publications semantically block until elements are dequeued from the
subscription queue.
Value Params
maxQueued
maximum number of elements to enqueue to the subscription
queue before blocking publishers
def subscribeAwait(maxQueued: Int): Resource[F, Stream[F, A]]
Like subscribe, but represents the subscription explicitly as
a Resource which returns after the subscriber is subscribed,
but before it has started pulling elements.
def subscribers: Stream[F, Int]
Signal of current active subscribers.
def close: F[Either[Closed, Unit]]
This method achieves graceful shutdown: when the topics gets
closed, its subscribers will terminate naturally after consuming all
currently enqueued elements.
"Termination" here means that subscribers no longer
wait for new elements on the topic, and not that they will be
interrupted while performing another action: if you want to
interrupt a subscriber, without first processing enqueued
elements, you should use interruptWhen on it instead.
After a call to close, any further calls to publish1 or close
will be no-ops.
Note that close does not automatically unblock producers which
might be blocked on a bound, they will only become unblocked
if/when subscribers naturally finish to consume the respective elements.
You can race the publish with close to interrupt them immediately.
def isClosed: F[Boolean]
Returns true if this topic is closed
def closed: F[Unit]
Semantically blocks until the topic gets closed.
def imap[B](f: A => B)(g: B => A): Topic[F, B]
Returns an alternate view of this Topic where its elements are of type B,
given two functions, A => B and B => A.
