Unqueue Element Documentation

NAME

Unqueue — Click element; pull-to-push converter

SYNOPSIS

Unqueue([keywords ACTIVE, LIMIT, BURST])

Ports: 1 input, 1 output
Processing: pull inputs, push outputs

DESCRIPTION

Pulls packets whenever they are available, then pushes them out its single output. Pulls a maximum of BURST packets every time it is scheduled. Default BURST is 1. If BURST is less than 0, pull until nothing comes back.

Keyword arguments are:

  • ACTIVE — If false, does nothing (doesn't pull packets). One possible use is to set ACTIVE to false in the configuration, and later change it to true with a handler from DriverManager element. The default value is true.
  • LIMIT — If positive, then at most LIMIT packets are pulled. The default is -1, which means there is no limit.

ELEMENT HANDLERS

  • count (read-only) — Returns the count of packets that have passed through Unqueue.
  • reset (write-only) — Resets the count to 0. This may reschedule the Unqueue to pull LIMIT more packets.
  • active (read/write) — Same as the ACTIVE keyword.
  • limit (read/write) — Same as the LIMIT keyword.
  • burst (read/write) — Same as the BURST keyword.
