Requirements

• libuv (version 1.x is recommended; 0.10 is supported)

Usage

Use the elektraIoUvNew function to get a new I/O binding instance. Make sure to build your application with elektra-io-uv, elektra-io and uv or simply use pkg-config --cflags --libs elektra-io-uv.

ElektraIoInterface _ elektraIoUvNew (uv_loop_t _ loop)

Create and initialize a new I/O binding.

Parameters

• loop: Loop to use for I/O operations

Returns

Populated I/O interface

Example

#include <elektra/kdb.h>
#include <elektra/kdbio.h>
#include <elektra/kdbio/uv.h>

#include <uv.h>

void main (void)
{
	KDB* repo;
	// ... open KDB

	// Create libuv event loop
	uv_loop_t * loop = uv_default_loop ();

	// Initialize I/O binding tied to event loop
	ElektraIoInterface * binding = elektraIoUvNew (loop);

	// Set I/O binding
	elektraIoSetBinding (kdb, binding);

	// Start the event loop
	uv_run (loop, UV_RUN_DEFAULT);

	// Cleanup before exit
	elektraIoBindingCleanup (binding);
	uv_loop_close (loop);
}
