Tokio Concurrency Patterns
This skill provides advanced concurrency patterns for building scalable async applications with Tokio.
Fan-Out/Fan-In Pattern
Distribute work across multiple workers and collect results:
use futures::stream::{self, StreamExt};
pub async fn fan_out_fan_in<T, R>(
items: Vec<T>,
concurrency: usize,
process: impl Fn(T) -> Pin<Box<dyn Future<Output = R> + Send>> + Send + Sync + 'static,
) -> Vec<R>
where
T: Send + 'static,
R: Send + 'static,
{
stream::iter(items)
.map(|item| process(item))
.buffer_unordered(concurrency)
.collect()
.await
}
// Usage
let results = fan_out_fan_in(
items,
10,
|item| Box::pin(async move { process_item(item).await })
).await;
Pipeline Processing
Chain async processing stages:
use tokio::sync::mpsc;
pub struct Pipeline<T> {
stages: Vec<Box<dyn Stage<T>>>,
}
#[async_trait::async_trait]
pub trait Stage<T>: Send {
async fn process(&self, item: T) -> T;
}
impl<T: Send + 'static> Pipeline<T> {
pub fn new() -> Self {
Self { stages: Vec::new() }
}
pub fn add_stage<S: Stage<T> + 'static>(mut self, stage: S) -> Self {
self.stages.push(Box::new(stage));
self
}
pub async fn run(self, mut input: mpsc::Receiver<T>) -> mpsc::Receiver<T> {
let (tx, rx) = mpsc::channel(100);
tokio::spawn(async move {
while let Some(mut item) = input.recv().await {

# Tokio Networking Patterns
This skill provides network programming patterns for building production-grade services with the Tokio ecosystem.
## HTTP Service with Hyper and Axum
Build HTTP services with routing and middleware:
```rust
use axum::{
Router,
routing::{get, post},
extract::{State, Path, Json},
response::IntoResponse,
middleware,
};
use std::sync::Arc;
#[derive(Clone)]
struct AppState {
db: Arc<Database>,
cache: Arc<Cache>,
}
async fn create_app() -> Router {
let state = AppState {
db: Arc::new(Database::new().await),
cache: Arc::new(Cache::new()),
};
Router::new()
.route("/health", get(health_check))
.route("/api/v1/users", get(list_users).post(create_user))
.route("/api/v1/users/:id", get(get_user).delete(delete_user))
.layer(middleware::from_fn(logging_middleware))
.layer(middleware::from_fn(auth_middleware))
.with_state(state)
}
async fn health_check() -> impl IntoResponse {
"OK"
}
async fn get_user(
State(state): State<AppState>,
Path(id): Path<u64>,
) -> Result<Json<User>, StatusCode> {
state.db.get_user(id)
.await
.map(Json)
.ok_or(StatusCode::NOT_FOUND)
}
async fn logging_middleware<B>(
req: Request<B>,
next: Next<B>,
) -> impl IntoResponse {
let method = req.method().clone();
let uri = req.uri().clone();
let start = Instant::now();
let response = next.run(req).await;

# Tokio Patterns
This skill provides common patterns and idioms for building robust async applications with Tokio.
## Worker Pool Pattern
Limit concurrent task execution using a semaphore:
```rust
use tokio::sync::Semaphore;
use std::sync::Arc;
pub struct WorkerPool {
semaphore: Arc<Semaphore>,
}
impl WorkerPool {
pub fn new(size: usize) -> Self {
Self {
semaphore: Arc::new(Semaphore::new(size)),
}
}
pub async fn execute<F, T>(&self, f: F) -> T
where
F: Future<Output = T>,
{
let _permit = self.semaphore.acquire().await.unwrap();
f.await
}
}
// Usage
let pool = WorkerPool::new(10);
let results = futures::future::join_all(
(0..100).map(|i| pool.execute(process_item(i)))
).await;
Request-Response Pattern
Use oneshot channels for request-response communication:
use tokio::sync::{mpsc, oneshot};
pub enum Command {
Get { key: String, respond_to: oneshot::Sender<Option<String>> },
Set { key: String, value: String },
}
pub async fn actor(mut rx: mpsc::Receiver<Command>) {
let mut store = HashMap::new();
while let Some(cmd) = rx.recv().await {
match cmd {
Command::Get { key, respond_to } => {
let value = store.get(&key).cloned();
let _ = respond_to.send(value);
}
Command::Set { key, value } => {
store.insert(key, value);
}
}
}
}
// Client usag

# Tokio Troubleshooting
This skill provides techniques for debugging and troubleshooting async applications built with Tokio.
## Using tokio-console for Runtime Inspection
Monitor async runtime in real-time:
```rust
// In Cargo.toml
[dependencies]
console-subscriber = "0.2"
// In main.rs
fn main() {
console_subscriber::init();
tokio::runtime::Builder::new_multi_thread()
.enable_all()
.build()
.unwrap()
.block_on(async {
run_application().await
});
}
Run console in separate terminal:
tokio-console
Key metrics to monitor:
- Task spawn rate and total tasks
- Poll duration per task
- Idle vs. busy time
- Waker operations
- Resource utilization
Identifying issues:
- Long poll durations: CPU-intensive work in async context
- Many wakers: Potential contention or inefficient polling
- Growing task count: Task leak or unbounded spawning
- High idle time: Not enough work or blocking operations
Debugging Deadlocks and Hangs
Detect and resolve deadlock situations:
Common Deadlock Pattern
// BAD: Potential deadlock
async fn deadlock_example() {
let mutex1 = Arc::new(Mutex::new(()));
let mutex2 = Arc::new(Mutex::new(()));
let m1 = mutex1.clone();
let m2 = mutex2.clone();
tokio::spawn(async move {
let _g1 = m1.lock().await;
tokio::time::sleep(Duration::from_millis(10)).await;
let _g2 = m2.lock().await; // May deadlock
});
