Class Pipe<T>


  • public class Pipe<T>
    extends Object
    Pipe data from a ReadStream to a WriteStream and performs flow control where necessary to prevent the write stream buffer from getting overfull.

    Instances of this class read items from a ReadStream and write them to a WriteStream. If data can be read faster than it can be written this could result in the write queue of the WriteStream growing without bound, eventually causing it to exhaust all available RAM.

    To prevent this, after each write, instances of this class check whether the write queue of the WriteStream is full, and if so, the ReadStream is paused, and a drainHandler is set on the WriteStream.

    When the WriteStream has processed half of its backlog, the drainHandler will be called, which results in the pump resuming the ReadStream.

    This class can be used to pipe from any ReadStream to any WriteStream, e.g. from an HttpServerRequest to an AsyncFile, or from NetSocket to a WebSocket.

    Please see the documentation for more information.

    NOTE: This class has been automatically generated from the original non RX-ified interface using Vert.x codegen.

      • getDelegate

      • to

        public void to​(WriteStream<T> dst,
                       Handler<AsyncResult<Void>> completionHandler)
        Start to pipe the elements to the destination WriteStream.

        When the operation fails with a write error, the source stream is resumed.

        Parameters:
        dst - the destination write stream
        completionHandler - the handler called when the pipe operation completes
      • to

        public void to​(WriteStream<T> dst)
        Start to pipe the elements to the destination WriteStream.

        When the operation fails with a write error, the source stream is resumed.

        Parameters:
        dst - the destination write stream
      • rxTo

        public io.reactivex.Completable rxTo​(WriteStream<T> dst)
        Start to pipe the elements to the destination WriteStream.

        When the operation fails with a write error, the source stream is resumed.

        Parameters:
        dst - the destination write stream
        Returns:
      • close

        public void close()
        Close the pipe.

        The streams handlers will be unset and the read stream resumed unless it is already ended.
