Fiber::Local

A module to simplify fiber-local state.

Development Status

Features

  • Easily access fiber-local state from a fiber.
  • Default to shared thread-local state.

Installation

$ bundle add fiber-local

Usage

In your own class, e.g. Logger:

class Logger
    extend Fiber::Local

    def initialize
        @buffer = []
    end

    def log(*arguments)
        @buffer << arguments
    end
end

Now, instead of instantiating your cache LOGGER = Logger.new, use Logger.instance. It will return a thread-local instance.

Thread.new do
    Logger.instance
    # => #
end

Thread.new do
    Logger.instance
    # => #
end

In cases where you have job per fiber or request per fiber, you might want to collect all log output for a specific fiber, you can do the following:

Logger.instance
# => #

Fiber.new do
    Logger.instance = Logger.new
    # => #
end
