libevent-rs

Rust bindings to the libevent async I/O framework.

Example

use libevent::{Base, Interval};

let mut base = Base::new();

let mut count: usize = 0;

let timer = Interval::new(Duration::from_secs(1));

base.spawn(timer, move |_event| {
    count += 1;
    println!("count: {}", count);
})?;

base.run();

System Requirements

• libclang is required by bindgen which is used to generate the Rust bindings. See bindgen requirements for more information. Also ensure that LIBCLANG_PATH is set, as some systems do not do so by default. libclang is only required if buildtime_bindgen is enabled.

• cmake if self-building via the bundled feature. The current bundled release is release-2.1.11-stable.

• pkg-config if not self-building via the bundled feature.

• buildtime_bindgen is an optional feature, enabled by default, which indicates that the Rust libevent bindings should be generated at build time.

• LIBEVENT_SYS_BINDGEN_FILE is an environment variable indicating the path of the file containing the pregenerated Rust bindings which must be populated when buildtime_bindgen is not enabled, and it is only applicable in this case.
