Callbacks

final override def andThen[U](pf: PartialFunction[Try[Nothing], U])(implicit executor: ExecutionContext): Future[Nothing]

Applies the side-effecting function to the result of this future, and returns a new future with the result of this future.

Applies the side-effecting function to the result of this future, and returns a new future with the result of this future.

This method allows one to enforce that the callbacks are executed in a specified order.

Note that if one of the chained andThen callbacks throws an exception, that exception is not propagated to the subsequent andThen callbacks. Instead, the subsequent andThen callbacks are given the original value of this future.

The following example prints out 5:

val f = Future { 5 }
f andThen {
  case r => throw new RuntimeException("runtime exception")
} andThen {
  case Failure(t) => println(t)
  case Success(v) => println(v)
}

Since this method executes asynchronously and does not produce a return value, any non-fatal exceptions thrown will be reported to the ExecutionContext.

Type parameters

U

only used to accept any return type of the given PartialFunction

Value parameters

pf

a PartialFunction which will be conditionally applied to the outcome of this Future

Attributes

Returns

a Future which will be completed with the exact same outcome as this Future but after the PartialFunction has been executed.

final override def foreach[U](f: Nothing => U)(implicit executor: ExecutionContext): Unit

Asynchronously processes the value in the future once the value becomes available.

Asynchronously processes the value in the future once the value becomes available.

WARNING: Will not be called if this future is never completed or if it is completed with a failure.

Since this method executes asynchronously and does not produce a return value, any non-fatal exceptions thrown will be reported to the ExecutionContext.

Type parameters

U

only used to accept any return type of the given callback function

Value parameters

f

the function which will be executed if this Future completes with a result, the return value of f will be discarded.

final override def onComplete[U](f: Try[Nothing] => U)(implicit executor: ExecutionContext): Unit

When this future is completed, either through an exception, or a value, apply the provided function.

When this future is completed, either through an exception, or a value, apply the provided function.

If the future has already been completed, this will either be applied immediately or be scheduled asynchronously.

Note that the returned value of f will be discarded.

Since this method executes asynchronously and does not produce a return value, any non-fatal exceptions thrown will be reported to the ExecutionContext.

Multiple callbacks may be registered; there is no guarantee that they will be executed in a particular order.

The provided callback always runs in the provided implicit ExecutionContext, though there is no guarantee that the execute() method on the ExecutionContext will be called once per callback or that execute() will be called in the current thread. That is, the implementation may run multiple callbacks in a batch within a single execute() and it may run execute() either immediately or asynchronously. Completion of the Future must *happen-before* the invocation of the callback.

Type parameters

U

only used to accept any return type of the given callback function

Value parameters

f

the function to be executed when this Future completes

Future.scala
final override def value: Option[Try[Nothing]]

The current value of this Future.

The current value of this Future.

Note: using this method yields nondeterministic dataflow programs.

If the future was not completed the returned value will be None. If the future was completed the value will be Some(Success(t)) if it contained a valid result, or Some(Failure(error)) if it contained an exception.

Attributes

Returns

None if the Future wasn't completed, Some if it was.

Transformations

final override def collect[S](pf: PartialFunction[Nothing, S])(implicit executor: ExecutionContext): Future[S]

Creates a new future by mapping the value of the current future, if the given partial function is defined at that value.

Creates a new future by mapping the value of the current future, if the given partial function is defined at that value.

If the current future contains a value for which the partial function is defined, the new future will also hold that value. Otherwise, the resulting future will fail with a NoSuchElementException.

If the current future fails, then the resulting future also fails.

Example:

val f = Future { -5 }
val g = f collect {
  case x if x < 0 => -x
}
val h = f collect {
  case x if x > 0 => x * 2
}
g foreach println // Eventually prints 5
Await.result(h, Duration.Zero) // throw a NoSuchElementException

Type parameters

S

the type of the returned Future

Value parameters

pf

the PartialFunction to apply to the successful result of this Future

Attributes

Returns

a Future holding the result of application of the PartialFunction or a NoSuchElementException

Future.scala
final override def failed: Future[Throwable]

The returned Future will be successfully completed with the Throwable of the original Future if the original Future fails.

The returned Future will be successfully completed with the Throwable of the original Future if the original Future fails.

If the original Future is successful, the returned Future is failed with a NoSuchElementException.

This future may contain a throwable object and this means that the future failed. Futures obtained through combinators have the same exception as the future they were obtained from. The following throwable objects are not contained in the future: - Error - fatal errors are not contained within futures - InterruptedException - not contained within futures - all scala.util.control.ControlThrowable except NonLocalReturnControl - not contained within futures

Instead, the future is completed with an ExecutionException that has one of the exceptions above as its cause. If a future is failed with a scala.runtime.NonLocalReturnControl, it is completed with a value from that throwable instead.

Attributes

Returns

a failed projection of this Future.

final override def fallbackTo[U](that: Future[U]): Future[U]

Creates a new future which holds the result of this future if it was completed successfully, or, if not, the result of the that future if that is completed successfully.

Creates a new future which holds the result of this future if it was completed successfully, or, if not, the result of the that future if that is completed successfully. If both futures are failed, the resulting future holds the throwable object of the first future.

Using this method will not cause concurrent programs to become nondeterministic.

Example:

val f = Future { throw new RuntimeException("failed") }
val g = Future { 5 }
val h = f fallbackTo g
h foreach println // Eventually prints 5

Type parameters

U

the type of the other Future and the resulting Future

Value parameters

final override def filter(p: Nothing => Boolean)(implicit executor: ExecutionContext): Future[Nothing]

Creates a new future by filtering the value of the current future with a predicate.

Creates a new future by filtering the value of the current future with a predicate.

If the current future contains a value which satisfies the predicate, the new future will also hold that value. Otherwise, the resulting future will fail with a NoSuchElementException.

If the current future fails, then the resulting future also fails.

Example:

val f = Future { 5 }
val g = f filter { _ % 2 == 1 }
val h = f filter { _ % 2 == 0 }
g foreach println // Eventually prints 5
Await.result(h, Duration.Zero) // throw a NoSuchElementException

Value parameters

p

final override def flatMap[S](f: Nothing => Future[S])(implicit executor: ExecutionContext): Future[S]

Creates a new future by applying a function to the successful result of this future, and returns the result of the function as the new future.

Creates a new future by applying a function to the successful result of this future, and returns the result of the function as the new future. If this future is completed with an exception then the new future will also contain this exception.

Example:

val f = Future { 5 }
val g = Future { 3 }
val h = for {
  x: Int <- f // returns Future(5)
  y: Int <- g // returns Future(3)
} yield x + y
