Feature/priorities

Open hffmnn opened this issue 4 years ago • 5 comments

We needed the option to enqueue tasks with priorities. This is a first shot at it. Let me know what you think.

  • Also fixes obsolete imports in the README.

First step towards https://github.com/rknell/dart_queue/issues/3


And one question: Some tests were running very flaky on my machine, namely it should handle an error correctly (also testing oncomplete) fails from time to time with this error message:

00:32 +5 -1: Queue it should handle an error correctly (also testing oncomplete) [E]                                                                             
  TimeoutException after 0:00:30.000000: Test timed out after 30 seconds. See https://pub.dev/packages/test#timeouts
  dart:isolate  _RawReceivePortImpl._handleMessage

Any idea? I am on latest macOS 11.2.1 and this is my flutter doctor:

hey @hffmnn I just wanted to touch base with you and let you know I have noticed the pull requests coming in!

I just haven't had a chance to really play with it yet - I use queue very heavily in one of my main projects right now so its going to come up, I have just not touched that part of it for a couple of weeks.

On the flakyness - not sure. But that is something worth looking into. If its timing out, especially on that test, then there is a chance the error isn't being caught and the promise is never returning, thereby never freeing that slot in the queue. Could be a major issue! I'm very happy to have a look at it though

@rknell Any chance this PR will be looked at again? I think the priority option is an important feature.

@victorshx its not dead, but there are some conflicts that need to be resolved as you can see and I just haven't been digging around the code much lately as I've been on other projects. Queue is used by a lot of other projects in the backend and its very stable so I'm happy for it to be a slow moving beast, but yes, priorities will land at some point.

It would be great if priority would not be true/false, but an integer, so different priority levels are possible

This package has been outstanding. This feature would be very welcome (if this package is still considered maintained). Thank you
