Struct SemigroupVariable

pub struct SemigroupVariable<G, C>
where
    G: Scope<Timestamp: Lattice>,
    C: Container,
{ /* private fields */ }

A recursively defined collection that only “grows”.

SemigroupVariable is a weakening of Variable to allow difference types that do not implement Abelian and only implement Semigroup. This means that it can be used in settings where the difference type does not support negation.

Implementations

impl<G, C> SemigroupVariable<G, C>

where G: Scope<Timestamp: Lattice>, C: ResultsIn<<G::Timestamp as Timestamp>::Summary> + Container,

pub fn new(scope: &mut G, step: <G::Timestamp as Timestamp>::Summary) -> Self

Creates a new initially empty SemigroupVariable.

pub fn set(self, result: &Collection<G, C>) -> Collection<G, C>

Adds a new source of data to self.

Methods from Deref<Target = Collection<G, C>>

pub fn concat(&self, other: &Self) -> Self

Creates a new collection accumulating the contents of the two collections.

Despite the name, differential dataflow collections are unordered. This method is so named because the implementation is the concatenation of the stream of updates, but it corresponds to the addition of the two collections.

Examples

use differential_dataflow::input::Input;

::timely::example(|scope| {

    let data = scope.new_collection_from(1 .. 10).1;

    let odds = data.filter(|x| x % 2 == 1);
    let evens = data.filter(|x| x % 2 == 0);

    odds.concat(&evens)
        .assert_eq(&data);
});

pub fn concatenate<I>(&self, sources: I) -> Self

where I: IntoIterator<Item = Self>,

Creates a new collection accumulating the contents of the two collections.

Despite the name, differential dataflow collections are unordered. This method is so named because the implementation is the concatenation of the stream of updates, but it corresponds to the addition of the two collections.

Examples

use differential_dataflow::input::Input;

::timely::example(|scope| {

    let data = scope.new_collection_from(1 .. 10).1;

    let odds = data.filter(|x| x % 2 == 1);
    let evens = data.filter(|x| x % 2 == 0);

    odds.concatenate(Some(evens))
        .assert_eq(&data);
});

pub fn enter_region<'a>( &self, child: &Child<'a, G, <G as ScopeParent>::Timestamp>, ) -> Collection<Child<'a, G, <G as ScopeParent>::Timestamp>, C>

This method is a specialization of enter to the case where the nested scope is a region. It removes the need for an operator that adjusts the timestamp.

pub fn inspect_container<F>(&self, func: F) -> Self

where F: FnMut(Result<(&G::Timestamp, &C), &[G::Timestamp]>) + 'static,

Applies a supplied function to each batch of updates.

This method is analogous to inspect, but operates on batches and reveals the timestamp of the timely dataflow capability associated with the batch of updates. The observed batching depends on how the system executes, and may vary run to run.

Examples

use differential_dataflow::input::Input;

::timely::example(|scope| {
    scope.new_collection_from(1 .. 10).1
         .map_in_place(|x| *x *= 2)
         .filter(|x| x % 2 == 1)
         .inspect_container(|event| println!("event: {:?}", event));
});

pub fn probe(&self) -> Handle<G::Timestamp>

Attaches a timely dataflow probe to the output of a Collection.

This probe is used to determine when the state of the Collection has stabilized and can be read out.

pub fn probe_with(&self, handle: &Handle<G::Timestamp>) -> Self

Attaches a timely dataflow probe to the output of a Collection.

This probe is used to determine when the state of the Collection has stabilized and all updates observed. In addition, a probe is also often use to limit the number of rounds of input in flight at any moment; a computation can wait until the probe has caught up to the input before introducing more rounds of data, to avoid swamping the system.

pub fn scope(&self) -> G

The scope containing the underlying timely dataflow stream.

pub fn negate(&self) -> Self

where C: Negate,

Creates a new collection whose counts are the negation of those in the input.

This method is most commonly used with concat to get those element in one collection but not another. However, differential dataflow computations are still defined for all values of the difference type R, including negative counts.

Examples

use differential_dataflow::input::Input;

::timely::example(|scope| {

    let data = scope.new_collection_from(1 .. 10).1;

    let odds = data.filter(|x| x % 2 == 1);
    let evens = data.filter(|x| x % 2 == 0);

    odds.negate()
        .concat(&data)
        .assert_eq(&evens);
});

pub fn enter<'a, T>( &self, child: &Child<'a, G, T>, ) -> Collection<Child<'a, G, T>, <C as Enter<<G as ScopeParent>::Timestamp, T>>::InnerContainer>

where C: Enter<<G as ScopeParent>::Timestamp, T, InnerContainer: Container>, T: Refines<<G as ScopeParent>::Timestamp>,

Brings a Collection into a nested scope.

Examples

use timely::dataflow::Scope;
use differential_dataflow::input::Input;

::timely::example(|scope| {

    let data = scope.new_collection_from(1 .. 10).1;

    let result = scope.region(|child| {
        data.enter(child)
            .leave()
    });

    data.assert_eq(&result);
});

pub fn results_in(&self, step: <G::Timestamp as Timestamp>::Summary) -> Self

where C: ResultsIn<<G::Timestamp as Timestamp>::Summary>,

Advances a timestamp in the stream according to the timestamp actions on the path.

The path may advance the timestamp sufficiently that it is no longer valid, for example if incrementing fields would result in integer overflow. In this case, the record is dropped.

Examples

use timely::dataflow::Scope;
use timely::dataflow::operators::{ToStream, Concat, Inspect, BranchWhen};

use differential_dataflow::input::Input;

timely::example(|scope| {
    let summary1 = 5;

    let data = scope.new_collection_from(1 .. 10).1;
    /// Applies `results_in` on every timestamp in the collection.
    data.results_in(summary1);
});

type Target = Collection<G, C>
