Interface PushEventConsumer<T>

  • Type Parameters:
    T - The type for the event payload
    Functional Interface:
    This is a functional interface and can therefore be used as the assignment target for a lambda expression or method reference.

    @ConsumerType
    @FunctionalInterface
    public interface PushEventConsumer<T>
    An Async Event Consumer asynchronously receives Data events until it receives either a Close or Error event.
    • Field Summary

      Fields 
      Modifier and Type Field Description
      static long ABORT
      If ABORT is used as return value, the sender should close the channel all the way to the upstream source.
      static long CONTINUE
      A 0 indicates that the consumer is willing to receive subsequent events at full speeds.
    • Field Detail

      • ABORT

        static final long ABORT
        If ABORT is used as return value, the sender should close the channel all the way to the upstream source. The ABORT will not guarantee that no more events are delivered since this is impossible in a concurrent environment. The consumer should accept subsequent events and close/clean up when the Close or Error event is received. Though ABORT has the value -1, any value less than 0 will act as an abort.

      • CONTINUE

        static final long CONTINUE
        A 0 indicates that the consumer is willing to receive subsequent events at full speeds. Any value more than 0 will indicate that the consumer is becoming overloaded and wants a delay of the given milliseconds before the next event is sent. This allows the consumer to pushback the event delivery speed.

    • Method Detail

      • accept

        long accept​(PushEvent<? extends T> event)
             throws java.lang.Exception
        Accept an event from a source. Events can be delivered on multiple threads simultaneously. However, Close and Error events are the last events received, no more events must be sent after them.
        Parameters:
        event - The event
        Returns:
        less than 0 means abort, 0 means continue, more than 0 means delay ms
        Throws:
        java.lang.Exception - to indicate that an error has occurred and that no further events should be delivered to this PushEventConsumer
