# orchestra
|
|
|
|
The orchestra pattern is a partial actor pattern, with a global orchestrator regarding
|
|
relevant work items.
|
|
|
|
## proc-macro
|
|
|
|
The proc macro provides a convenience generator with a builder pattern,
|
|
where at it's core it creates and spawns a set of subsystems, which are purely
|
|
declarative.
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
#[orchestra(signal=SigSigSig, event=Event, gen=AllMessages, error=OrchestraError)]
|
|
pub struct Opera {
|
|
#[subsystem(MsgA, sends: [MsgB])]
|
|
sub_a: AwesomeSubSysA,
|
|
|
|
#[subsystem(MsgB, sends: [MsgA])]
|
|
sub_b: AwesomeSubSysB,
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* Each subsystem is annotated with `#[subsystem(_)]` where `MsgA` respectively `MsgB` are the messages
|
|
being consumed by that particular subsystem. Each of those subsystems is required to implement the subsystem
|
|
trait with the correct trait bounds. Commonly this is achieved
|
|
by using `#[subsystem]` and `#[contextbounds]` macro.
|
|
* `#[contextbounds(Foo, error=Yikes, prefix=wherethetraitsat)]` can applied to `impl`-blocks and `fn`-blocks. It will add additional trait bounds for the generic `Context` with `Context: FooContextTrait` for `<Context as FooContextTrait>::Sender: FooSenderTrait` besides a few more. Note that `Foo` here references the name of the subsystem as declared in `#[orchestra(..)]` macro.
|
|
* `#[subsystem(Foo, error=Yikes, prefix=wherethetraitsat)]` is a extension to the above, implementing `trait Subsystem<Context, Yikes>`.
|
|
* `error=` tells the orchestra to use the user provided
|
|
error type, if not provided a builtin one is used. Note that this is the one error type used throughout all calls, so make sure it does impl `From<E>` for all other error types `E` that are relevant to your application.
|
|
* `event=` declares an external event type, that injects certain events
|
|
into the orchestra, without participating in the subsystem pattern.
|
|
* `signal=` defines a signal type to be used for the orchestra. This is a shared "tick" or "clock" for all subsystems.
|
|
* `gen=` defines a wrapping `enum` type that is used to wrap all messages that can be consumed by _any_ subsystem.
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
/// Execution context, always required.
|
|
pub struct DummyCtx;
|
|
|
|
/// Task spawner, always required
|
|
/// and must implement `trait orchestra::Spawner`.
|
|
pub struct DummySpawner;
|
|
|
|
fn main() {
|
|
let _orchestra = Opera::builder()
|
|
.sub_a(AwesomeSubSysA::default())
|
|
.sub_b(AwesomeSubSysB::default())
|
|
.spawner(DummySpawner)
|
|
.build();
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
In the shown `main`, the orchestra is created by means of a generated, compile time erroring
|
|
builder pattern.
|
|
|
|
The builder requires all subsystems, baggage fields (additional struct data) and spawner to be
|
|
set via the according setter method before `build` method could even be called. Failure to do
|
|
such an initialization will lead to a compile error. This is implemented by encoding each
|
|
builder field in a set of so called `state generics`, meaning that each field can be either
|
|
`Init<T>` or `Missing<T>`, so each setter translates a state from `Missing` to `Init` state
|
|
for the specific struct field. Therefore, if you see a compile time error that blames about
|
|
`Missing` where `Init` is expected it usually means that some subsystems or baggage fields were
|
|
not set prior to the `build` call.
|
|
|
|
To exclude subsystems from such a check, one can set `wip` attribute on some subsystem that
|
|
is not ready to be included in the Orchestra:
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
#[orchestra(signal=SigSigSig, event=Event, gen=AllMessages, error=OrchestraError)]
|
|
pub struct Opera {
|
|
#[subsystem(MsgA, sends: MsgB)]
|
|
sub_a: AwesomeSubSysA,
|
|
|
|
#[subsystem(MsgB, sends: MsgA), wip]
|
|
sub_b: AwesomeSubSysB, // This subsystem will not be required nor allowed to be set
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Baggage fields can be initialized more than one time, however, it is not true for subsystems:
|
|
subsystems must be initialized only once (another compile time check) or be _replaced_ by
|
|
a special setter like method `replace_<subsystem>`.
|
|
|
|
A task spawner and subsystem context are required to be defined with `Spawner` and respectively `SubsystemContext` implemented.
|
|
|
|
## Debugging
|
|
|
|
As always, debugging is notoriously annoying with bugged proc-macros.
|
|
|
|
Therefore [`expander`](https://github.com/drahnr/expander) is employed to yield better
|
|
error messages. Enable with `--feature=orchestra/expand`.
