RunKit 1.0.4

Maintained by Khoi.Geeky.

You want to add pod 'RunKit', '~> 1.0' similar to the following to your Podfile:

target 'MyApp' do
  pod 'RunKit', '~> 1.0'
end

Then run a pod install inside your terminal, or from CocoaPods.app.

Alternatively to give it a test run, run the command:

pod try RunKit

RunKit 1.0.4

By
Khoi

A Swift Wrapper for Grand Central Dispatch (GCD) Framework that supports method chaining.

Tired of this?

dispatch_async(dispatch_get_global_queue(QOS_CLASS_BACKGROUND, 0)) { () -> Void in
    for index in 1...UInt64.max{
        print(index)
    }
    dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), { () -> Void in
        print("Back to main thread")
    })
}

With RunKit

Run.background { 
    for index in 1...UInt64.max{
        print(index)
    }
}.main { 
    print("Back to main thread")
}

Installation

Usage

Supported Queues:

Run.main {}
Run.userInteractive {}
Run.userInitiated {}
Run.utility {}
Run.background {}

Queues Chaining:

Run.main { 
    print("main queue")
}.background { 
    print("background queue")
}.userInitiated {
    print("userInitiated queue")
}.main { 
    print("Back to main thread")
}

Store blocks reference for chaining

let longRunningBlock = Run.background{
    for index in 1...UInt64.max{
        print(index)
    }
}
longRunningBlock.main{
    print("Back to main thread")
}

You can also cancel a running process

longRunningBlock.cancel()

Or wait for it to finish

longRunningBlock.wait()
print("Continue..")
