Async8

A utility library for simplifying asynchronous programming in .NET.

Features

  • Task Extensions: Add timeout handling and cancellation support to async operations.
  • Concurrent Execution Helpers: Execute tasks in parallel or process items in batches.
  • Async Caching: Cache asynchronous operations for improved performance.
  • Retry Policies: Handle transient errors with configurable retries.

Basic Usage

1. Parallel Execution

Run multiple tasks concurrently with a specified degree of parallelism.

using Async8.Helpers;

var items = Enumerable.Range(1, 100);
await ConcurrentHelpers.ParallelForEachAsync(items, degreeOfParallelism: 4, async item =>
{
    await ProcessItemAsync(item);
});

2. Async Caching

Cache the results of asynchronous operations to avoid redundant computations.

using Async8.Caching;

var cache = new AsyncCache<string, string>();
var value = await cache.GetOrAddAsync("key1", async key =>
{
    return await FetchDataAsync(key);
});

3. Retry Policy

Handle transient errors by automatically retrying failed operations.

using Async8.Policies;

var result = await RetryPolicy.ExecuteWithRetryAsync(async () =>
{
    return await ExternalServiceCallAsync();
}, maxRetries: 3, delayBetweenRetries: TimeSpan.FromSeconds(2));

4. Task Timeout

Handle transient errors by automatically retrying failed operations.

using Async8.Extensions;

var result = await SomeAsyncMethod().WithTimeout(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(5));
