## Overview
|
|
|
|
AsyncMonitor is a Swift library that provides a simple and easy-to-use way to manage Swift concurrency `Task`s that observe async sequences. The `AsyncMonitor` class allows you to create tasks that observe streams and call the given closure with each new value, and optionally also with a context parameter so you don't have to manage its lifetime.
|
|
|
|
It uses a Swift `Task` to ensure that all resources are properly cleaned up when the `AsyncMonitor` is cancelled or deallocated.
|
|
|
|
That's it. It's pretty trivial. I just got tired of writing it over and over, mainly for notifications. You still have to map your `Notification`s to something sendable.

|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
The only way to install this package is with Swift Package Manager (SPM). Please [file a new issue][] or submit a pull-request if you want to use something else.

### Supported Platforms
|
|
|
|
This package is supported on iOS 18.0+ and macOS 15.0+.
|
|
|
|
### Xcode
|
|
|
|
When you're integrating this into an app with Xcode then go to your project's Package Dependencies and enter the URL `https://github.com/samsonjs/AsyncMonitor` and then go through the usual flow for adding packages.
|
|
|
|
### Swift Package Manager (SPM)
|
|
|
|
When you're integrating this using SPM on its own then add this to the list of dependencies your Package.swift file:
|
|
|
|
```swift
|
|
.package(url: "https://github.com/samsonjs/AsyncMonitor.git", .upToNextMajor(from: "0.1.1"))
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
and then add `"AsyncMonitor"` to the list of dependencies in your target as well.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
The simplest example uses a closure that receives the notification:
|
|
|
|
```swift
|
|
import AsyncMonitor
|
|
|
|
class SimplestVersion {
|
|
let cancellable = NotificationCenter.default
|
|
.notifications(named: .NSCalendarDayChanged).map(\.name)
|
|
.monitor { _ in
|
|
print("The date is now \(Date.now)")
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This example uses the context parameter to avoid reference cycles with `self`:
|
|
|
|
```swift
|
|
import AsyncMonitor
|
|
|
|
class WithContext {
|
|
var cancellables = Set<AnyAsyncCancellable>()
|
|
|
|
init() {
|
|
NotificationCenter.default
|
|
.notifications(named: .NSCalendarDayChanged).map(\.name)
|
|
.monitor(context: self) { _self, _ in
|
|
_self.dayChanged()
|
|
}.store(in: &cancellables)
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
func dayChanged() {
|
|
print("The date is now \(Date.now)")
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The closure is async so you can await in there if you need to.
