Data.Pool.Introspection

A variant of Data.Pool with introspection capabilities.

  • 5 types
  • 10 values

Pool

3 declarations
valuenewPool :: PoolConfig a -> IO (Pool a)
#

Create a new striped resource pool.

Note: although the runtime system will destroy all idle resources when the pool is garbage collected, it's recommended to manually call destroyAllResources when you're done with the pool so that the resources are freed up as soon as possible.

Configuration

valuedefaultPoolConfig
  1. :: IO a

    The action that creates a new resource.

  2. -> (a -> IO ())

    The action that destroys an existing resource.

  3. -> Double

    The amount of seconds for which an unused resource is kept around. The smallest acceptable value is 0.5.

    Note: the elapsed time before destroying a resource may be a little longer than requested, as the collector thread wakes at 1-second intervals.

  4. -> Int

    The maximum number of resources to keep open across all stripes. The smallest acceptable value is 1.

    Note: for each stripe the number of resources is divided by the number of stripes and rounded up, hence the pool might end up creating up to N - 1 resources more in total than specified, where N is the number of stripes.

  5. -> PoolConfig a
#

Create a PoolConfig with optional parameters having default values.

For setting optional parameters have a look at:

valuesetNumStripes :: Maybe Int -> PoolConfig a -> PoolConfig a
#

Set the number of stripes in the pool.

If set to Nothing (the default value), the pool will create the amount of stripes equal to the number of capabilities. This ensures that threads never compete over access to the same stripe and results in a very good performance in a multi-threaded environment.

Resource management

9 declarations
datadata Resource a
#

A resource taken from the pool along with additional information.

Constructors

Instances4Eq, Show, Generic, Rep
datadata Acquisition
#

Describes how a resource was acquired from the pool.

Constructors

  • Immediate

    A resource was taken from the pool immediately.

  • Delayed

    The thread had to wait until a resource was released.

Instances4Eq, Show, Generic, Rep
valuedestroyAllResources :: Pool a -> IO ()
#

Destroy all resources in all stripes in the pool.

Note that this will ignore any exceptions in the destroy function.

This function is useful when you detect that all resources in the pool are broken. For example after a database has been restarted all connections opened before the restart will be broken. In that case it's better to close those connections so that takeResource won't take a broken connection from the pool but will open a new connection instead.

Another use-case for this function is that when you know you are done with the pool you can destroy all idle resources immediately instead of waiting on the garbage collector to destroy them, thus freeing up those resources sooner.
