14//! Mio is a fast, low-level I/O library for Rust focusing on non-blocking APIs
15//! and event notification for building high performance I/O apps with as little
16//! overhead as possible over the OS abstractions.
17//!
18//! # Usage
19//!
20//! Using Mio starts by creating a [`Poll`], which reads events from the OS and
21//! puts them into [`Events`]. You can handle I/O events from the OS with it.
22//!
23//! For more detail, see [`Poll`].
24//!

26//! [`Events`]: ../mio/event/struct.Events.html

28//! ## Examples
29//!
30//! Examples can found in the `examples` directory of the source code, or [on
31//! GitHub].

115 //!

130pub mod guide {
131 //! # Getting started guide.
132 //!
133 //! In this guide we'll do the following:
134 //!
135 //! 1. Create a [`Poll`] instance (and learn what it is).
136 //! 2. Register an [event source].
137 //! 3. Create an event loop.
138 //!
139 //! At the end you'll have a very small (but quick) TCP server that accepts
140 //! connections and then drops (disconnects) them.
141 //!
142 //! ## 1. Creating a `Poll` instance
143 //!
144 //! Using Mio starts by creating a [`Poll`] instance, which monitors events
145 //! from the OS and puts them into [`Events`]. This allows us to execute I/O
146 //! operations based on what operations are ready.
147 //!
148 //! [`Poll`]: ../struct.Poll.html
149 //! [`Events`]: ../event/struct.Events.html
150 //!
151 #![cfg_attr(feature = "os-poll", doc = "```")]
152 #![cfg_attr(not(feature = "os-poll"), doc = "```ignore")]
153 //! # use mio::{Poll, Events};
154 //! # fn main() -> std::io::Result<()> {
155 //! // `Poll` allows for polling of readiness events.
156 //! let poll = Poll::new()?;
157 //! // `Events` is collection of readiness `Event`s and can be filled by
158 //! // calling `Poll::poll`.
159 //! let events = Events::with_capacity(128);
160 //! # drop((poll, events));
161 //! # Ok(())
162 //! # }
163 //! ```
164 //!
165 //! For example if we're using a [`TcpListener`], we'll only want to
166 //! attempt to accept an incoming connection *iff* any connections are
167 //! queued and ready to be accepted. We don't want to waste our time if no
168 //! connections are ready.
169 //!
170 //! [`TcpListener`]: ../net/struct.TcpListener.html
171 //!
172 //! ## 2. Registering event source
173 //!
174 //! After we've created a [`Poll`] instance that monitors events from the OS
175 //! for us, we need to provide it with a source of events. This is done by
176 //! registering an [event source]. As the name “event source” suggests it is
177 //! a source of events which can be polled using a `Poll` instance. On Unix
178 //! systems this is usually a file descriptor, or a socket/handle on
179 //! Windows.
180 //!
181 //! In the example below we'll use a [`TcpListener`] for which we'll receive
182 //! an event (from [`Poll`]) once a connection is ready to be accepted.
183 //!
184 //! [event source]: ../event/trait.Source.html
185 //!
186 #![cfg_attr(all(feature = "os-poll", feature = "net"), doc = "```")]
187 #![cfg_attr(not(all(feature = "os-poll", feature = "net")), doc = "```ignore")]
188 //! # use mio::net::TcpListener;
189 //! # use mio::{Poll, Token, Interest};
190 //! # fn main() -> std::io::Result<()> {
191 //! # let poll = Poll::new()?;
192 //! # let address = "127.0.0.1:0".parse().unwrap();
193 //! // Create a `TcpListener`, binding it to `address`.
194 //! let mut listener = TcpListener::bind(address)?;
195 //!
196 //! // Next we register it with `Poll` to receive events for it. The `SERVER`
197 //! // `Token` is used to determine that we received an event for the listener
198 //! // later on.
199 //! const SERVER: Token = Token(0);
200 //! poll.registry().register(&mut listener, SERVER, Interest::READABLE)?;
201 //! # Ok(())
202 //! # }
203 //! ```
204 //!
205 //! Multiple event sources can be [registered] (concurrently), so we can
206 //! monitor multiple sources at a time.
207 //!
208 //! [registered]: ../struct.Registry.html#method.register
209 //!
210 //! ## 3. Creating the event loop
211 //!
212 //! After we've created a [`Poll`] instance and registered one or more
213 //! [event sources] with it, we can [poll] it for events. Polling for events
214 //! is simple, we need a container to store the events: [`Events`] and need
215 //! to do something based on the polled events (this part is up to you, we
216 //! can't do it all!). If we do this in a loop we've got ourselves an event
217 //! loop.
218 //!
219 //! The example below shows the event loop in action, completing our small
220 //! TCP server.
221 //!
222 //! [poll]: ../struct.Poll.html#method.poll
223 //! [event sources]: ../event/trait.Source.html
224 //!
225 #![cfg_attr(all(feature = "os-poll", feature = "net"), doc = "```")]
226 #![cfg_attr(not(all(feature = "os-poll", feature = "net")), doc = "```ignore")]
227 //! # use std::io;
228 //! # use std::time::Duration;
229 //! # use mio::net::TcpListener;
230 //! # use mio::{Poll, Token, Interest, Events};
231 //! # fn main() -> io::Result<()> {
232 //! # let mut poll = Poll::new()?;
233 //! # let mut events = Events::with_capacity(128);
234 //! # let address = "127.0.0.1:0".parse().unwrap();
235 //! # let mut listener = TcpListener::bind(address)?;
236 //! # const SERVER: Token = Token(0);
237 //! # poll.registry().register(&mut listener, SERVER, Interest::READABLE)?;
238 //! // Start our event loop.
239 //! loop {
240 //! // Poll the OS for events, waiting at most 100 milliseconds.
241 //! poll.poll(&mut events, Some(Duration::from_millis(100)))?;
242 //!
243 //! // Process each event.
244 //! for event in events.iter() {
245 //! // We can use the token we previously provided to `register` to
246 //! // determine for which type the event is.
247 //! match event.token() {
248 //! SERVER => loop {
249 //! // One or more connections are ready, so we'll attempt to
250 //! // accept them (in a loop).
251 //! match listener.accept() {
252 //! Ok((connection, address)) => {
253 //! println!("Got a connection from: {}", address);
254 //! # drop(connection);
255 //! },
256 //! // A "would block error" is returned if the operation
257 //! // is not ready, so we'll stop trying to accept
258 //! // connections.
259 //! Err(ref err) if would_block(err) => break,
260 //! Err(err) => return Err(err),
261 //! }
262 //! }
263 //! # _ => unreachable!(),
264 //! }
265 //! }
266 //! # return Ok(());
267 //! }
268 //!
269 //! fn would_block(err: &io::Error) -> bool {
270 //! err.kind() == io::ErrorKind::WouldBlock
271 //! }
272 //! # }
273 //! ```
