Tutorial: Creación de tipos de bloques de flujos de datos personalizados
Aunque la biblioteca de flujo de datos TPL proporciona varios tipos de bloques de flujo de datos que permiten una variedad de funciones, también puede crear tipos de bloques personalizados. En este documento se describe cómo crear un tipo de bloque de flujo de datos que implementa un comportamiento personalizado.
Requisitos previos
Lea Flujo de datos antes de leer este documento.
Nota
La biblioteca de flujos de datos TPL (el espacio de nombres System.Threading.Tasks.Dataflow) no se distribuye con .NET. Para instalar el espacio de nombres System.Threading.Tasks.Dataflow en Visual Studio, abra el proyecto, seleccione Administrar paquetes NuGet en el menú Proyecto y busque en línea el paquete System.Threading.Tasks.Dataflow
. Como alternativa, para realizar la instalación con la CLI de .Net Core, ejecute dotnet add package System.Threading.Tasks.Dataflow
.
Definición de un bloque de flujo de datos de ventana deslizante
Considere la posibilidad de que una aplicación de flujo de datos requiera que los valores de entrada se almacenen en búfer y que el resultado se muestre en un tipo de ventana deslizante. Por ejemplo, para los valores de entrada {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5} y un tamaño de ventana de tres, un bloque de flujo de datos de ventana deslizante produce las matrices de salida {0, 1, 2}, {1, 2, 3}, {2, 3, 4} y {3, 4, 5}. En las secciones siguientes se describen dos maneras de crear un tipo de bloque de flujo de datos que implementa este comportamiento personalizado. La primera técnica utiliza el método Encapsulate para combinar la funcionalidad de un objeto ISourceBlock<TOutput> y un objeto ITargetBlock<TInput> en un bloque propagador. La segunda técnica define una clase que deriva de IPropagatorBlock<TInput,TOutput> y combina la funcionalidad existente para llevar a cabo un comportamiento personalizado.
Uso del método encapsulador para definir el bloque de flujo de datos de ventana deslizante
En el ejemplo siguiente se usa el método Encapsulate para crear un bloque propagador desde un origen y un destino. Un bloque propagador permite que un bloque de origen y un bloque de destino actúen como un destinatario y remitente de datos.
Esta técnica es útil cuando necesita la funcionalidad de flujo de datos personalizada, pero no necesita un tipo que proporcione métodos, propiedades o campos adicionales.
// Creates a IPropagatorBlock<T, T[]> object propagates data in a
// sliding window fashion.
public static IPropagatorBlock<T, T[]> CreateSlidingWindow<T>(int windowSize)
{
// Create a queue to hold messages.
var queue = new Queue<T>();
// The source part of the propagator holds arrays of size windowSize
// and propagates data out to any connected targets.
var source = new BufferBlock<T[]>();
// The target part receives data and adds them to the queue.
var target = new ActionBlock<T>(item =>
{
// Add the item to the queue.
queue.Enqueue(item);
// Remove the oldest item when the queue size exceeds the window size.
if (queue.Count > windowSize)
queue.Dequeue();
// Post the data in the queue to the source block when the queue size
// equals the window size.
if (queue.Count == windowSize)
source.Post(queue.ToArray());
});
// When the target is set to the completed state, propagate out any
// remaining data and set the source to the completed state.
target.Completion.ContinueWith(delegate
{
if (queue.Count > 0 && queue.Count < windowSize)
source.Post(queue.ToArray());
source.Complete();
});
// Return a IPropagatorBlock<T, T[]> object that encapsulates the
// target and source blocks.
return DataflowBlock.Encapsulate(target, source);
}
' Creates a IPropagatorBlock<T, T[]> object propagates data in a
' sliding window fashion.
Public Shared Function CreateSlidingWindow(Of T)(ByVal windowSize As Integer) As IPropagatorBlock(Of T, T())
' Create a queue to hold messages.
Dim queue = New Queue(Of T)()
' The source part of the propagator holds arrays of size windowSize
' and propagates data out to any connected targets.
Dim source = New BufferBlock(Of T())()
' The target part receives data and adds them to the queue.
Dim target = New ActionBlock(Of T)(Sub(item)
' Add the item to the queue.
' Remove the oldest item when the queue size exceeds the window size.
' Post the data in the queue to the source block when the queue size
' equals the window size.
queue.Enqueue(item)
If queue.Count > windowSize Then
queue.Dequeue()
End If
If queue.Count = windowSize Then
source.Post(queue.ToArray())
End If
End Sub)
' When the target is set to the completed state, propagate out any
' remaining data and set the source to the completed state.
target.Completion.ContinueWith(Sub()
If queue.Count > 0 AndAlso queue.Count < windowSize Then
source.Post(queue.ToArray())
End If
source.Complete()
End Sub)
' Return a IPropagatorBlock<T, T[]> object that encapsulates the
' target and source blocks.
Return DataflowBlock.Encapsulate(target, source)
End Function
Derivación de IPropagatorBlock para definir el bloque de flujo de datos de ventana deslizante
En el ejemplo siguiente se muestra la clase SlidingWindowBlock
. Esta clase se deriva de IPropagatorBlock<TInput,TOutput> para que pueda actuar como un origen y un destino de datos. Como se muestra en el ejemplo anterior, la clase SlidingWindowBlock
se basa en los tipos de bloques de flujo de datos existentes. Sin embargo, la clase SlidingWindowBlock
también implementa los métodos necesarios para las interfaces ISourceBlock<TOutput>, ITargetBlock<TInput> y IDataflowBlock. Todos estos métodos reenvían el trabajo a los miembros del tipo de bloque de flujo de datos predefinido. Por ejemplo, el método Post
aplaza el trabajo para el miembro de datos m_target
, que también es un objeto ITargetBlock<TInput>.
Esta técnica es útil cuando necesita la funcionalidad de flujo de datos personalizada y también necesita un tipo que proporcione métodos, propiedades o campos adicionales. Por ejemplo, la clase SlidingWindowBlock
también deriva de IReceivableSourceBlock<TOutput>, para que pueda proporcionar los métodos TryReceive y TryReceiveAll. La clase SlidingWindowBlock
también muestra la extensibilidad al proporcionar la propiedad WindowSize
, que recupera el número de elementos en la ventana deslizante.
