Class Vertx

java.lang.Object
io.vertx.reactivex.core.Vertx
All Implemented Interfaces:
io.vertx.lang.rx.RxDelegate, Measured
public class Vertx extends Object implements io.vertx.lang.rx.RxDelegate, Measured
The entry point into the Vert.x Core API.

You use an instance of this class for functionality including:

  • Creating TCP clients and servers
  • Creating HTTP clients and servers
  • Creating DNS clients
  • Creating Datagram sockets
  • Setting and cancelling periodic and one-shot timers
  • Getting a reference to the event bus API
  • Getting a reference to the file system API
  • Getting a reference to the shared data API
  • Deploying and undeploying verticles

Most functionality in Vert.x core is fairly low level.

To create an instance of this class you can use the static factory methods: vertx(), vertx() and clusteredVertx(VertxOptions).

Please see the user manual for more detailed usage information.

NOTE: This class has been automatically generated from the original non RX-ified interface using Vert.x codegen.

      Like deployVerticle(String) but Deployable instance is created by invoking the verticleSupplier.

      The supplier will be invoked as many times as DeploymentOptions. It must not return the same instance twice.

      Note that the supplier will be invoked on the caller thread.

      Parameters:
      supplier -
      options -
      Returns:
      a future completed with the result

    • rxDeployVerticle

      public Single<String> rxDeployVerticle(Supplier<? extends Deployable> supplier, DeploymentOptions options)
      Like deployVerticle(String) but Deployable instance is created by invoking the verticleSupplier.

      The supplier will be invoked as many times as DeploymentOptions. It must not return the same instance twice.

      Note that the supplier will be invoked on the caller thread.

      Parameters:
      supplier -
      options -
      Returns:
      a future completed with the result

    • registerVerticleFactory

      public void registerVerticleFactory(VerticleFactory factory)
      Register a VerticleFactory that can be used for deploying Verticles based on an identifier.
      Parameters:
      factory - the factory to register

    • unregisterVerticleFactory

      public void unregisterVerticleFactory(VerticleFactory factory)
      Unregister a VerticleFactory
      Parameters:
      factory - the factory to unregister

    • verticleFactories

      public Set<VerticleFactory> verticleFactories()
      Return the Set of currently registered verticle factories.
      Returns:
      the set of verticle factories

    • executeBlocking

      public <T> Future<T> executeBlocking(Callable<T> blockingCodeHandler, boolean ordered)
      Safely execute some blocking code.

      Executes the blocking code in the handler blockingCodeHandler using a thread from the worker pool.

      The returned future will be completed with the result on the original context (i.e. on the original event loop of the caller) or failed when the handler throws an exception.

      In the blockingCodeHandler the current context remains the original context and therefore any task scheduled in the blockingCodeHandler will be executed on this context and not on the worker thread.

      The blocking code should block for a reasonable amount of time (i.e no more than a few seconds). Long blocking operations or polling operations (i.e a thread that spin in a loop polling events in a blocking fashion) are precluded.

      When the blocking operation lasts more than the 10 seconds, a message will be printed on the console by the blocked thread checker.

      Long blocking operations should use a dedicated thread managed by the application, which can interact with verticles using the event-bus or Context.runOnContext(Handler)

      Parameters:
      blockingCodeHandler - handler representing the blocking code to run
      ordered - if true then if executeBlocking is called several times on the same context, the executions for that context will be executed serially, not in parallel. if false then they will be no ordering guarantees
      Returns:
      a future completed when the blocking code is complete

    • rxExecuteBlocking

      public <T> Maybe<T> rxExecuteBlocking(Callable<T> blockingCodeHandler, boolean ordered)
      Safely execute some blocking code.

      Executes the blocking code in the handler blockingCodeHandler using a thread from the worker pool.

      The returned future will be completed with the result on the original context (i.e. on the original event loop of the caller) or failed when the handler throws an exception.

      In the blockingCodeHandler the current context remains the original context and therefore any task scheduled in the blockingCodeHandler will be executed on this context and not on the worker thread.

      Returns:
      a future completed when the blocking code is complete
