How to realize a queue in dart?












0















I want to set up a queue of functions in Darts. Queuing should be asynchronous, allowing multiple functions to run concurrently. However, a maximum of three functions should be executed simultaneously. How can I achieve this?



I already tied working off a list but i am struggeling at adding a limit on same time running functions



List<String> queue = new List();

main(){
queue.add("...");
queue.add("...");
queue.add("...");

for(String q in queue){
await crawl(q);
}
}

crawl(String) async{
...
}

  • There is a queue class for Dart api.dartlang.org/stable/2.1.0/dart-collection/Queue-class.html and Dart is single-threaded so there is no way 2 functions can modify the queue at the same time. All methods of the queue are sync and therefore atomic. "Queuing should be asynchronous" not sure what that means.

  • "Queuing should be asynchronous". I'm trying to make a search engine in dart. Therefore i have to crawl through websites. For speeding up the process the program should crawl multiple websites at the same time.

  • "crawl multiple websites at the same time" that's fine. The adding/removing to the queue is very cheap and atomic and therefore no need for any specific precautions. Just add and remove to your desire. Is there any specific problem left?

  • Yes! :) "It is generally not allowed to modify the queue (add or remove entries) while an operation on the queue is being performed, for example during a call to forEach. Modifying the queue while it is being iterated will most likely break the iteration.". The crawler adds websites permanently

  • Then just copy the queue before iterating. queue.toList().forEach(...) You would need to elaborate how you would want conflicts to be handled.

I would use a queue:



import "dart:collection";
final queue = Queue<String>();
main() {
queue
..add("...")
..add("...")
..add("...");
while (queue.isNotEmpty) {
await crawl(queue.removeFirst());
}
}

crawl(String x) async {
.... queue.add(...) ...
}


This should work. It will not do concurrent crawling because await each operation. If you want concurrent crawling, I recommend being a little more clever. Look for worker pools or similar structures to ensure that you only have a certain number of operations running at the same time.
