Types

type Value

type Value struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Value represents a shared value that can be watched for changes. Methods on a Value may be called concurrently. The zero Value is ok to use, and is equivalent to a NewValue result with a nil initial value.

func NewValue

func NewValue(initial interface{}) *Value

NewValue creates a new Value holding the given initial value. If initial is nil, any watchers will wait until a value is set.

func (*Value) Close

func (v *Value) Close() error

Close closes the Value, unblocking any outstanding watchers. Close always returns nil.

func (*Value) Closed

func (v *Value) Closed() bool

Closed reports whether the value has been closed.

func (*Value) Get

func (v *Value) Get() interface{}

Get returns the current value.

func (*Value) Set

func (v *Value) Set(val interface{})

Set sets the shared value to val.

func (*Value) Watch

func (v *Value) Watch() *Watcher

Watch returns a Watcher that can be used to watch for changes to the value.

type Watcher

type Watcher struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Watcher represents a single watcher of a shared value.

func (*Watcher) Close

func (w *Watcher) Close()

Close closes the Watcher without closing the underlying value. It may be called concurrently with Next.

func (*Watcher) Next

func (w *Watcher) Next() bool

Next blocks until there is a new value to be retrieved from the value that is being watched. It also unblocks when the value or the Watcher itself is closed. Next returns false if the value or the Watcher itself have been closed.
