public interface StreamMessage<T> extends org.reactivestreams.Publisher<T>
A variant of Reactive Streams Publisher, which allows only one Subscriber. Unlike a usual Publisher, a StreamMessage can stream itself only once. It has the following additional operations on top of what the Reactive Streams API provides:

When is a StreamMessage fully consumed?

A StreamMessage is complete (or 'fully consumed') when:

  • the Subscriber consumes all elements and Subscriber.onComplete() is invoked,
  • an error occurred and Subscriber.onError(Throwable) is invoked,
  • the Subscription has been cancelled or
  • abort() has been requested.

When fully consumed, the CompletableFuture returned by whenComplete() will complete, which you may find useful because Subscriber does not notify you when a stream is cancelled.

Publication and Consumption of pooled HttpData objects

StreamMessage will discard the publication request of a pooled HttpData silently and release it automatically when the publication is attempted after the stream is closed.

For pooled HttpData, StreamMessage will convert them into its unpooled version that never leak, so that the Subscriber does not need to worry about leaks.

If a Subscriber does not want a StreamMessage to make a copy of a pooled HttpData, specify SubscriptionOption.WITH_POOLED_OBJECTS when you subscribe. Note that the Subscriber is responsible for releasing the objects given with Subscriber.onNext(Object).

Subscriber.onError(Throwable) is invoked when any exception is raised except the CancelledSubscriptionException which is caused by Subscription.cancel(). If you want your Subscriber get notified by Subscriber.onError(Throwable) when Subscription.cancel() is called, specify SubscriptionOption.NOTIFY_CANCELLATION when you subscribe.

The StreamMessage publishes items eagerly in the order that the futures complete. It does not necessarily preserve the order of the original stream. As per Reactive Streams Specification 2.13, the specified Function should not return a null value nor a future which completes with a null value.

      Example:

      
 StreamMessage<Integer> streamMessage = StreamMessage.of(1, 2, 3, 4, 5);

      default <U extends T> StreamMessage<T> peek(Consumer<? super U> action, Class<? extends U> type)
      Peeks values emitted by this StreamMessage and applies the specified Consumer. Only values which are an instance of the specified type are peeked.

      For example:

      
 StreamMessage<Number> source = StreamMessage.of(0.1, 1, 0.2, 2, 0.3, 3);
 List<Integer> collected = new ArrayList<>();

      @UnstableApi default <E extends Throwable> StreamMessage<T> recoverAndResume(Class<E> causeClass, Function<? super E,? extends StreamMessage<T>> function)
      Recovers a failed StreamMessage and resumes by subscribing to a returned fallback StreamMessage when the thrown Throwable is the same type or a subtype of the specified causeClass.

      Example:

      
 StreamWriter<Integer> stream = StreamMessage.streaming();
 stream.write(1);
 stream.write(2);
 stream.close(new IllegalStateException("Oops..."));
 StreamMessage<Integer> resumed =
     stream.recoverAndResume(IllegalStateException.class, cause -> StreamMessage.of(3, 4));

    • toInputStream

      default InputStream toInputStream(Function<? super T,? extends HttpData> httpDataConverter)
      Adapts this StreamMessage to InputStream.

      For example:

      
 StreamMessage<String> streamMessage = StreamMessage.of("foo", "bar", "baz");
 InputStream inputStream = streamMessage.toInputStream(x -> HttpData.wrap(x.getBytes()));
 byte[] expected = "foobarbaz".getBytes();

 ByteBuf result = Unpooled.buffer();
 int read;
 while ((read = inputStream.read()) != -1) {
     result.writeByte(read);
 }

 int readableBytes = result.readableBytes();
 byte[] actual = new byte[readableBytes];
 for (int i = 0; i < readableBytes; i++) {
     actual[i] = result.readByte();
 }
 assert Arrays.equals(actual, expected);
 assert inputStream.available() == 0;

    • toInputStream

      default InputStream toInputStream(Function<? super T,? extends HttpData> httpDataConverter, io.netty.util.concurrent.EventExecutor executor)
      Adapts this StreamMessage to InputStream.
      Parameters:
      executor - the executor to subscribe

    • endWith

      @UnstableApi default StreamMessage<T> endWith(Function<@Nullable Throwable,? extends @Nullable T> finalizer)
      Dynamically emits the last value depending on whether this StreamMessage completes successfully or exceptionally.

      For example:

      
 StreamMessage<Integer> source = StreamMessage.of(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10);
 StreamMessage<Integer> aborted = source
     .peek(i -> {
         if (i > 5) {
             source.abort();
         }
     });
 StreamMessage<Integer> endWith = aborted
     .endWith(th -> {
          if (th instanceof AbortedStreamException) {
              return 100;
          }
          return -1;
     });
 List<Integer> collected = endWith.collect().join();

 assert collected.equals(List.of(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 100));

      Note that if null is returned by the Function, the StreamMessage will complete successfully without emitting an additional value when this stream is complete successfully, or complete exceptionally when this stream is complete exceptionally.
