Computer is a lightweight library for concurrent computations, which provides Flutter's compute like API.

• Easy to use API
• No overhead on creating & releasing isolates for each task. Workers initialized on start and ready to solve your tasks
• Strictly defined number of workers

Computer.shared() is a singleton, use Computer.create() to create new instances

Computer provides just 3 methods

Before using the Computer you need to turnOn it. This will create workers and initialize them. Then you may use compute() method.

final computer = Computer.create(); //Or Computer.shared()

await computer.turnOn(
  workersCount: 4, // optional, default 2
  verbose: false, // optional, default false
);

compute will execute your function inside one of the workers. Function may be async. The callback argument must be a top-level or static method of a class.

final result = await computer.compute(
  fib,
  param: 45, // optional
);

If you don't need workers anymore, you can turnOff the Computer. It will destroy workers.

await computer.turnOff();

ComputerError the parent error for all errors/exceptions in this package

class ComputerError implements Exception {
  final String message;
}

RemoteExecutionError shows up when something goes wrong in task

class RemoteExecutionError extends ComputerError {
  final Capability taskCapability;
}

CancelExecutionError shows up when turnOff is called but task is processing

class CancelExecutionError extends ComputerError {
  final Capability taskCapability;
}
