Async is a composable asynchronous I/O framework for Ruby based on io-event.

"Lately I've been looking into async, as one of my projects – tus-ruby-server – would really benefit from non-blocking I/O. It's really beautifully designed." – janko

• Scalable event-driven I/O for Ruby. Thousands of clients per process!
• Light weight fiber-based concurrency. No need for callbacks!
• Multi-thread/process containers for parallelism.
• Growing eco-system of event-driven components.

Please see the project documentation for more details.

• Getting Started - This guide shows how to add async to your project and run code asynchronously.

• Asynchronous Tasks - This guide explains how asynchronous tasks work and how to use them.

• Event Loop - This guide gives an overview of how the event loop is implemented.

• Compatibility - This guide gives an overview of the compatibility of Async with Ruby and other frameworks.

• Best Practices - This guide gives an overview of best practices for using Async.

• Debugging - This guide explains how to debug issues with programs that use Async.

Please see the project releases for all releases.

• Traces and Metrics Providers

• Async::Scheduler Debugging
• Console Shims

• Add support for Sync(annotation:), so that you can annotate the block with a description of what it does, even if it doesn't create a new task.

• Introduce Async::Queue#push and Async::Queue#pop for compatibility with ::Queue.

• Better Handling of Async and Sync in Nested Fibers

• async-http — Asynchronous HTTP client/server.
• async-websocket — Asynchronous client and server websockets.
• async-dns — Asynchronous DNS resolver and server.
• falcon — A rack compatible server built on top of async-http.
• rubydns — An easy to use Ruby DNS server.
• slack-ruby-bot — A client for making slack bots.
