Structured concurrency
helps reasoning about the behaviour of parallel programs. parallel implements
structured concurrency for Go.
func subtask(ctx context.Context) error {
// to be run in parallel
}
type subtaskWithData struct { /* ... * / }
func (swd *subtaskWithData) Run(ctx context.Context) error {
// to be run in parallel
}
err := parallel.Run(ctx, func(ctx context.Context, spawn parallel.SpawnFn) error {
swd := &subtaskWithData{}
// do some synchronous initialization here
spawn("subtask", parallel.Fail, subtask)
spawn("subtaskWithData", parallel.Fail, swd.Run)
return nil
})
Runs initializaiton within parallel.Run(), and then waits until context is
canceled, or one of spawned tasks finishes. Panics in goroutines are captured.
See the documentation for additional features:
- subprocess groups without inversion of control
- tasks that may exit and keep the group running
- tasks that may exit and cause the group to stop gracefully
