TaskManager

The TaskManager is a core type that you must save in your app's state. Call TaskManager::add_collection to register a new collection. And then call TaskManager::push_task when you want to add a new task.

TasksCollection and CollectionData

TasksCollection can be implemented for a type and then this type might be used as a type parameter for several methods.

CollectionData is a "dynamic" version of a type that implements TasksCollection although not totally. It holds collection's name and executor. And in addition to this holds currently running tasks and channel that receives data that tasks yield.

Task and Caller

Task has name and Caller. Caller can be either Standard or Progressing.

Caller::standard expects a future.

Caller::progressing expects a closure with an argument of type TaskProgressShared. This type provides functionality for progress tracking and functions such TaskProgressShared::set_total and TaskProgressShared::update. Which allows you to track your progress.

For more information about progress see TaskProgressShared.

TaskExecutor

A trait that determines task's execution.
