`filePath` (mandatory) Path to a file with a worker implementation.
`opts` (optional) An object with the pool options properties described below.
-### `pool.execute(data, name, transferList)`
+### `pool.execute(data, name, abortSignal, transferList)`
`data` (optional) An object that you want to pass to your worker task function implementation.
`name` (optional) A string with the task function name that you want to execute on the worker. Default: `'default'`
+`abortSignal` (optional) An abort signal to abort the task function execution.
`transferList` (optional) An array of transferable objects that you want to transfer to your [`ThreadWorker`](#class-yourworker-extends-threadworkerclusterworker) worker implementation.
This method is available on both pool implementations and returns a promise with the task function execution response.
+### `pool.mapExecute(data, name, abortSignals, transferList)`
+
+`data` An iterable of objects that you want to pass to your worker task function implementation.
+`name` (optional) A string with the task function name that you want to execute on the worker. Default: `'default'`
+`abortSignals` (optional) An iterable of AbortSignal to abort the matching object task function execution.
+`transferList` (optional) An array of transferable objects that you want to transfer to your [`ThreadWorker`](#class-yourworker-extends-threadworkerclusterworker) worker implementation.
+
+This method is available on both pool implementations and returns a promise with the task function execution responses array.
+
### `pool.start()`
This method is available on both pool implementations and will start the minimum number of workers.
Default: `() => {}`
- `workerChoiceStrategy` (optional) - The default worker choice strategy to use in this pool:
-
- `WorkerChoiceStrategies.ROUND_ROBIN`: Submit tasks to worker in a round robin fashion
- `WorkerChoiceStrategies.LEAST_USED`: Submit tasks to the worker with the minimum number of executing and queued tasks
- `WorkerChoiceStrategies.LEAST_BUSY`: Submit tasks to the worker with the minimum tasks execution time
- `WorkerChoiceStrategies.LEAST_ELU`: Submit tasks to the worker with the minimum event loop utilization (ELU)
- - `WorkerChoiceStrategies.WEIGHTED_ROUND_ROBIN`: Submit tasks to worker by using a [weighted round robin scheduling algorithm](./worker-choice-strategies.md#weighted-round-robin) based on tasks execution time
- - `WorkerChoiceStrategies.INTERLEAVED_WEIGHTED_ROUND_ROBIN`: Submit tasks to worker by using an [interleaved weighted round robin scheduling algorithm](./worker-choice-strategies.md#interleaved-weighted-round-robin-experimental) based on tasks execution time (experimental)
- - `WorkerChoiceStrategies.FAIR_SHARE`: Submit tasks to worker by using a [fair share scheduling algorithm](./worker-choice-strategies.md#fair-share) based on tasks execution time (the default) or ELU active time
+ - `WorkerChoiceStrategies.WEIGHTED_ROUND_ROBIN`: Submit tasks to worker by using a [weighted round robin scheduling algorithm](./worker-choice-strategies.md) based on tasks execution time
+ - `WorkerChoiceStrategies.INTERLEAVED_WEIGHTED_ROUND_ROBIN`: Submit tasks to worker by using an [interleaved weighted round robin scheduling algorithm](./worker-choice-strategies.md) based on tasks execution time (experimental)
+ - `WorkerChoiceStrategies.FAIR_SHARE`: Submit tasks to worker by using a [fair share scheduling algorithm](./worker-choice-strategies.md) based on tasks execution time (the default) or ELU active time
`WorkerChoiceStrategies.WEIGHTED_ROUND_ROBIN`, `WorkerChoiceStrategies.INTERLEAVED_WEIGHTED_ROUND_ROBIN` and `WorkerChoiceStrategies.FAIR_SHARE` strategies are targeted to heavy and long tasks.
Default: `WorkerChoiceStrategies.ROUND_ROBIN`
- `workerChoiceStrategyOptions` (optional) - The worker choice strategy options object to use in this pool.
Properties:
-
- `measurement` (optional) - The measurement to use in worker choice strategies: `runTime`, `waitTime` or `elu`.
- - `runTime` (optional) - Use the tasks [simple moving median](./worker-choice-strategies.md#simple-moving-median) runtime instead of the tasks simple moving average runtime in worker choice strategies.
- - `waitTime` (optional) - Use the tasks [simple moving median](./worker-choice-strategies.md#simple-moving-median) wait time instead of the tasks simple moving average wait time in worker choice strategies.
- - `elu` (optional) - Use the tasks [simple moving median](./worker-choice-strategies.md#simple-moving-median) ELU instead of the tasks simple moving average ELU in worker choice strategies.
+ - `runTime` (optional) - Use the tasks [simple moving median](./worker-choice-strategies.md) runtime instead of the tasks simple moving average runtime in worker choice strategies.
+ - `waitTime` (optional) - Use the tasks [simple moving median](./worker-choice-strategies.md) wait time instead of the tasks simple moving average wait time in worker choice strategies.
+ - `elu` (optional) - Use the tasks [simple moving median](./worker-choice-strategies.md) ELU instead of the tasks simple moving average ELU in worker choice strategies.
- `weights` (optional) - The worker weights to use in weighted round robin worker choice strategies: `Record<number, number>`.
Default: `{ runTime: { median: false }, waitTime: { median: false }, elu: { median: false } }`
- `tasksQueueOptions` (optional) - The worker tasks queue options object to use in this pool.
Properties:
-
- `size` (optional) - The maximum number of tasks that can be queued on a worker before flagging it as back pressured. It must be a positive integer.
- `concurrency` (optional) - The maximum number of tasks that can be executed concurrently on a worker. It must be a positive integer.
- `taskStealing` (optional) - Task stealing enablement on idle.
- `tasksStealingOnBackPressure` (optional) - Tasks stealing enablement under back pressure.
+ - `tasksStealingRatio` (optional) - The ratio of worker nodes that can steal tasks from another worker node. It must be a number between 0 and 1.
- `tasksFinishedTimeout` (optional) - Queued tasks finished timeout in milliseconds at worker termination.
- Default: `{ size: (pool maximum size)^2, concurrency: 1, taskStealing: true, tasksStealingOnBackPressure: false, tasksFinishedTimeout: 2000 }`
+ Default: `{ size: (pool maximum size)^2, concurrency: 1, taskStealing: true, tasksStealingOnBackPressure: true, tasksStealingRatio: 0.6, tasksFinishedTimeout: 2000 }`
- `workerOptions` (optional) - An object with the worker options to pass to worker. See [worker_threads](https://nodejs.org/api/worker_threads.html#worker_threads_new_worker_filename_options) for more details.
`opts` (optional) An object with these properties:
- `killBehavior` (optional) - Dictates if your worker will be deleted in case a task is active on it.
- **KillBehaviors.SOFT**: If `currentTime - lastActiveTime` is greater than `maxInactiveTime` but a task is still executing or queued, then the worker **won't** be deleted.
- **KillBehaviors.HARD**: If `currentTime - lastActiveTime` is greater than `maxInactiveTime` but a task is still executing or queued, then the worker will be deleted.
+ **KillBehaviors.SOFT**: If `currentTime - lastActiveTime` is greater than `maxInactiveTime` but the worker is stealing tasks or a task is executing or queued, then the worker **won't** be deleted.
+ **KillBehaviors.HARD**: If `currentTime - lastActiveTime` is greater than `maxInactiveTime` but the worker is stealing tasks or a task is executing or queued, then the worker will be deleted.
This option only apply to the newly created workers.
Default: `KillBehaviors.SOFT`
