isolate_task_queue #

A Dart package that provides a task queue mechanism as well as isolates to manage and execute asynchronous tasks.

Features #

• Sequential Task Execution: Ensures tasks are executed one after another, maintaining order and preventing race conditions.
• Parallel Task Execution: Ensures a limited number of tasks are executed concurrently, enhancing efficiency.
• Isolate Utilization: Leverages Dart's isolate system to perform tasks without blocking the main thread, enhancing performance.

Getting Started #

To use isolate_task_queue in your Flutter project:

Add Dependency:

Add the following to your pubspec.yaml file:

dependencies:
  isolate_task_queue: ^1.0.0

Import the Package:

In your Dart code, import the package:

import 'package:isolate_task_queue/isolate_task_queue.dart';

Usage #

Here's a basic example of how to use isolate_task_queue:

void main() async {
    final queue = SimpleTaskQueue();
    
    queue.add(() async {
        print("Task 1 start");
        await Future.delayed(Duration(seconds: 2));
        print("Task 1 end");
    });
    
    queue.add(() async {
        print("Task 2 start");
        await Future.delayed(Duration(seconds: 1));
        print("Task 2 end");
    });
    
    queue.add(() async {
        print("Task 3 start");
        await Future.delayed(Duration(milliseconds: 500));
        print("Task 3 end");
    });
    
    print("All tasks added to the queue and will execute sequentially.");
}

In this example, each task is added to the queue and will execute sequentially, ensuring that each task completes before the next begins.
