CHANGELOG.md

Unreleased

v0.2.5 - 2019-01-21

Added

• now support start_link([]) as a special case. This means that if you use the default childspec with no args, the server will use the initial value for state defined in the using block.

• add start_link to the top-level Strategy.Dynamic module, so that it can itself be supervised.

• Add the child_spec: option to Global and Dynamic strategies. If truthy, a child_spec/1 function will be generated. If the value is a map, its values will be used to override corresponding values in the default.

Fixed

• returning a reified collection from Hungry.consume trampled on a variable.

• The code that looked for the state variable in parameter lists din't deal with destructured parameters.

v0.2.4 - 2019-01-14

Added

• :timeout is now supported for Strategy.Global (so it is now supported by all strategies)

• the consume/2 function for Hungry workers now takes an into: option, allowing the results to be returned synchronously into a list or map, or asynchronously into a function or a stream.

• consume/2 takes a when_done: option, which nominates a function to call when the work in complete. The function is passed the result. This is probably most useful when the consume is asynchronous.

Changed

• Renamed the Strategy.Hungry options from :default_timeout and :default_concurrency to just :timeout and :concurrency (because :timeout is the option used by the other strategies)

• Refactored all of the strategy code. I'd forgotten just how organically it had grown, and like most organic things it had rotted over time.

Removed

Fixed

v0.2.3 - 2019-01-08

Added

• Support for GenServer callbacks. Previously this was only available for Global components. Now there's a new callbacks block that can inject the callback functions into the correct GenServer worker regardless of the strategy.

• the README now has a table of contents

v0.2.2 - 2019-01-07

Added

• support for default parameters in one_way and two_way declarations

Changed

Removed

Fixed

• fixes issue #4
