A swift library to make use of asynchronous API in a synchronous environment.
- Compatible with iOS and macOS
- No deadlocks
- Support for callback based asynchronous code
- Support for swift-concurrency based asynchronous code
Resyncer help you calling asynchronous code in a synchronous environment by suspending current thread execution, waiting for asynchronous work to complete. This is done by offloading asynchronous work to a different thread either by using an OperationQueue or by making use of swift-concurrency Task.
Because Resyncer is going to block the calling thread, make sure not to use it from the Main Thread.
If you have an asynchronous function that posts a value on a provided callback using swift Result (or also without Result, you can construct it yourself):
func asyncWork(_ completion: @escaping (Result<Int, Error>) -> Void) { ... }You can use Resyncher to obtain the produced value in a synchronouse environment:
let x = try resyncer.synchronize { callback in
self.asyncWork { result in
callback(result)
}
}If you have an asynchronous function that returns a value:
func asyncWork() async throws -> Int { ... }You can use Resyncher to obtain the produced value in a synchronouse environment:
let x = try resyncer.synchronize { callback in
try await self.asyncWork()
}Add the dependency to the Resyncer framework in your Podfile:
pod 'Resyncer', '~> 1.0.0'Add it as a dependency in a Swift Package:
dependencies: [
.package(url: "https://github.com/danielepantaleone/Resyncer.git", .upToNextMajor(from: "1.0.0"))
