Mapped Futures

This library contains several structs that map keys to asynchronous tasks. It contains MappedFutures, BiMultiMapFutures, MappedStreams, and BiMultiMapStreams. Once added, the futures or streams can be mutated or removed if you have the key. These modules add mapping data structures to FuturesUnordered, so futures will only be polled after being woken, and will complete out of order.

You can create the mapping, insert futures, cancel them, and wait for the next completing future, which will return the future's output and its key. If the future is Unpin then a reference can be retrieved for mutation with MappedFutures::get_mut(), otherwise MappedFutures::get_pin_mut() must be used.

use crate::mapped_futures::*;
use futures::executor::block_on;
use futures::future::LocalBoxFuture;
use futures_timer::Delay;
use futures_util::StreamExt;
use std::time::Duration;

let mut futures = MappedFutures::new();
futures.insert(1, Delay::new(Duration::from_millis(50)));
futures.insert(2, Delay::new(Duration::from_millis(75)));
futures.insert(3, Delay::new(Duration::from_millis(100)));
assert_eq!(futures.cancel(&1), true);
futures.get_pin_mut(&2).unwrap().reset(Duration::from_millis(125));
assert_eq!(block_on(futures.next()).unwrap().0, 3);
assert_eq!(block_on(futures.next()).unwrap().0, 2);
assert_eq!(block_on(futures.next()), None);

In order to retrieve any owned futures from the mapping, the futures have to be Unpin, such as by enclosing them in Box::pin().

use crate::mapped_futures::*;
use futures::executor::block_on;
use futures::future::LocalBoxFuture;
use futures_timer::Delay;
use futures_util::StreamExt;
use std::time::Duration;

futures.insert(1, Box::pin(Delay::new(Duration::from_millis(50))));
futures.insert(2, Box::pin(Delay::new(Duration::from_millis(75))));
futures.insert(3, Box::pin(Delay::new(Duration::from_millis(100))));
assert_eq!(block_on(futures.remove(&1)).unwrap().0, ());
assert_eq!(block_on(futures.replace(&2, Delay::new(Duration::from_millis(125)))).unwrap().0, ());
assert_eq!(block_on(futures.next()).unwrap().0, 3);

A similar interface exists for MappedStreams but with streams instead of futures. If your future mapping needs are more complex, you can use BiMultiMapFutures, which suppports one-to-many relationships between futures and two kinds of key. So each key will be associated with zero or more futures, but each (leftkey, rightkey) pair will be associated with at most one future. BiMultiMapStreams does the same for streams.
