Description

SWI-Prolog has great primitives for communicating between threads. This library is for applications which prefer a directional channel abstraction similar to that used in Go or Rust.

This is a relatively thin API on top of SWI-Prolog's message queues.

Installation

Using SWI-Prolog 7.1 or later:

?- pack_install(chan).

This module uses semantic versioning.
