modify

abstract suspend fun <B> modify(f: (A) -> Pair<A, B>): B(source)

Modify allows to inspect the state A of the AtomicRef, update it and extract a different state B.

typealias Id = Int
data class Job(val description: String)

val initialState = (0 until 10).map { i -> Pair(i, Job("Task #$i")) }

suspend fun main(): Unit {
val jobs = Atomic(initialState)

val batch = jobs.modify { j ->
val batch = j.take(5)
Pair(j.drop(5), batch)
}

batch.forEach { (id, job) ->
println("Going to work on $job with id $id\n")
}

println("Remaining: ${jobs.get()}")
