This is not an existing class, but documentation of the interface that Scheduler object should comply to in order to be used as argument to Fiber.scheduler and handle non-blocking fibers. See also the “Non-blocking fibers” section in Fiber class docs for explanations of some concepts.

Scheduler’s behavior and usage are expected to be as follows:

• When the execution in the non-blocking Fiber reaches some blocking operation (like sleep, wait for a process, or a non-ready I/O), it calls some of the scheduler’s hook methods, listed below.

• Scheduler somehow registers what the current fiber is waiting on, and yields control to other fibers with Fiber.yield (so the fiber would be suspended while expecting its wait to end, and other fibers in the same thread can perform)

• At the end of the current thread execution, the scheduler’s method scheduler_close is called

• The scheduler runs into a wait loop, checking all the blocked fibers (which it has registered on hook calls) and resuming them when the awaited resource is ready (e.g. I/O ready or sleep time elapsed).

This way concurrent execution will be achieved transparently for every individual Fiber’s code.

Scheduler implementations are provided by gems, like Async.

Hook methods are:

• io_wait, io_read, io_write, io_pread, io_pwrite, and io_select, io_close

• process_wait

• kernel_sleep

• timeout_after

• address_resolve

• block and unblock

• (the list is expanded as Ruby developers make more methods having non-blocking calls)

When not specified otherwise, the hook implementations are mandatory: if they are not implemented, the methods trying to call hook will fail. To provide backward compatibility, in the future hooks will be optional (if they are not implemented, due to the scheduler being created for the older Ruby version, the code which needs this hook will not fail, and will just behave in a blocking fashion).

It is also strongly recommended that the scheduler implements the fiber method, which is delegated to by Fiber.schedule.

Sample toy implementation of the scheduler can be found in Ruby’s code, in test/fiber/scheduler.rb

Class for representing HTTP method PATCH:

require 'net/http'
uri = URI('http://example.com')
hostname = uri.hostname # => "example.com"
uri.path = '/posts'
req = Net::HTTP::Patch.new(uri) # => #<Net::HTTP::Patch PATCH>
req.body = '{"title": "foo","body": "bar","userId": 1}'
req.content_type = 'application/json'
res = Net::HTTP.start(hostname) do |http|
  http.request(req)
end

Properties:

• Request body: yes.

• Response body: yes.

• Safe: no.

• Idempotent: no.

• Cacheable: no.

Class for representing WebDAV method PROPPATCH:

uri = URI('http://example.com')
hostname = uri.hostname # => "example.com"
req = Net::HTTP::Proppatch.new(uri) # => #<Net::HTTP::Proppatch PROPPATCH>
res = Net::HTTP.start(hostname) do |http|
  http.request(req)
end

@!visibility private (see DependencyGraph#add_edge_no_circular)

@!visibility private @see DependencyGraph#detach_vertex_named

Returns the real (absolute) pathname of pathname in the actual filesystem. The real pathname doesn’t contain symlinks or useless dots.

If dir_string is given, it is used as a base directory for interpreting relative pathname instead of the current directory.

The last component of the real pathname can be nonexistent.

Returns all components of the filename given in file_name except the last one (after first stripping trailing separators). The filename can be formed using both File::SEPARATOR and File::ALT_SEPARATOR as the separator when File::ALT_SEPARATOR is not nil.

File.dirname("/home/gumby/work/ruby.rb")   #=> "/home/gumby/work"

If level is given, removes the last level components, not only one.

File.dirname("/home/gumby/work/ruby.rb", 2) #=> "/home/gumby"
File.dirname("/home/gumby/work/ruby.rb", 4) #=> "/"

With string object given, returns true if path is a string path leading to a directory, or to a symbolic link to a directory; false otherwise:

File.directory?('.')              # => true
File.directory?('foo')            # => false
File.symlink('.', 'dirlink')      # => 0
File.directory?('dirlink')        # => true
File.symlink('t,txt', 'filelink') # => 0
File.directory?('filelink')       # => false

Argument path can be an IO object.

Returns the real (absolute) pathname of self in the actual filesystem.

Does not contain symlinks or useless dots, .. and ..

The last component of the real pathname can be nonexistent.

Returns all but the last component of the path.
