genawaiter

This crate implements stackless generators (aka coroutines) in stable Rust. Instead of using yield, which won't be stabilized anytime soon, you use async/await, which is stable today.

Features:

• safe
• allocation-free
• supports resume arguments
• no dependencies

Example:

let generator = Gen::new(|co| async move {
    let mut n = 1;
    while n < 10 {
        // Suspend a function at any point with a value.
        co.yield_(n).await;
        n += 2;
    }
});

// Generators can be used as ordinary iterators.
for num in generator {
    println!("{}", num);
}

Result:

1
3
5
7
9
