name: auto-update version: 0.1.1.0 synopsis: Efficiently run periodic, on-demand actions description: A common problem is the desire to have an action run at a scheduled interval, but only if it is needed. For example, instead of having every web request result in a new @getCurrentTime@ call, we'd like to have a single worker thread run every second, updating an @IORef@. However, if the request frequency is less than once per second, this is a pessimization, and worse, kills idle GC. . This library allows you to define actions which will either be performed by a dedicated thread or, in times of low volume, will be executed by the calling thread. homepage: https://github.com/yesodweb/wai license: MIT license-file: LICENSE author: Michael Snoyman maintainer: michael@snoyman.com category: Control build-type: Simple extra-source-files: README.md cabal-version: >=1.10 library exposed-modules: Control.AutoUpdate Control.Reaper other-modules: Control.AutoUpdate.Util build-depends: base >= 4 && < 5 default-language: Haskell2010 test-suite spec main-is: Spec.hs other-modules: Control.AutoUpdateSpec hs-source-dirs: test type: exitcode-stdio-1.0 build-depends: base, auto-update, hspec default-language: Haskell2010
