Tanya is a general purpose library for D programming language.
Its aim is to simplify the manual memory management in D and to provide a
guarantee with @nogc attribute that there are no hidden allocations on the
Garbage Collector heap. Everything in the library is usable in @nogc code.
Tanya extends Phobos functionality and provides alternative implementations for
data structures and utilities that depend on the Garbage Collector in Phobos.
## Overview
Tanya consists of the following packages:
* `async`: Event loop (epoll, kqueue and IOCP).
* `container`: Queue, Vector, Singly linked list, buffers.
* `math`: Arbitrary precision integer and a set of functions.
* `memory`: Tools for manual memory management (allocator, reference counting,
helper functions).
* `network`: URL-Parsing, sockets.
### Supported compilers
* dmd 2.073.0
* dmd 2.072.2
* dmd 2.071.2
* dmd 2.070.2
### Current status
The library is currently under development, but the API is becoming gradually
stable.
`container`s are being extended to support ranges. Also following modules are
coming soon:
* UTF-8 string.
* Hash table.
`math` package contains an arbitrary precision integer implementation that
needs more test cases, better performance and some additional features
(constructing from a string and an ubyte array, and converting it back).
### Further characteristics
* Tanya is a native D library.
* Documentation and usage examples can be found in the source code.
Online documentation will be published soon.
* Tanya is cross-platform. The development happens on a 64-bit Linux, but it
is being tested on Windows and FreeBSD as well.
* The library isn't thread-safe. Thread-safity should be added later.
## Contributing
Since I'm mostly busy writing new code and implementing new features I would
appreciate, if anyone uses the library. It would help me to improve the
codebase and fix issues.
Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
