[![Build Status](https://img.shields.io/github/actions/workflow/status/sogou/workflow/ci.yml?branch=master)](https://github.com/sogou/workflow/actions?query=workflow%3A%22ci+build%22++)As **Sogou\`s C++ server engine**, Sogou C++ Workflow supports almost all **back-end C++ online services** of Sogou, including all search services, cloud input method, online advertisements, etc., handling more than **10 billion** requests every day. This is an **enterprise-level programming engine** in light and elegant design which can satisfy most C++ back-end development requirements.
#### You can use it:
* To quickly build an **HTTP server**:
~~~cpp
#include
#include "workflow/WFHttpServer.h"int main()
{
WFHttpServer server([](WFHttpTask *task) {
task->get_resp()->append_output_body("Hello World!");
});if (server.start(8888) == 0) { // start server on port 8888
getchar(); // press "Enter" to end.
server.stop();
}return 0;
}
~~~* As a **multifunctional asynchronous client**, it currently supports `HTTP`, `Redis`, `MySQL` and `Kafka` protocols.
* ``MySQL`` protocol supports ``MariaDB``, ``TiDB`` as well.
* To implement **client/server on user-defined protocol** and build your own **RPC system**.
* [srpc](https://github.com/sogou/srpc) is based on it and it is an independent open source project, which supports srpc, brpc, trpc and thrift protocols.
* To build **asynchronous workflow**; support common **series** and **parallel** structures, and also support any **DAG** structures.
* As a **parallel computing tool**. In addition to **networking tasks**, Sogou C++ Workflow also includes **the scheduling of computing tasks**. All types of tasks can be put into **the same** flow.
* As an **asynchronous file IO tool** in `Linux` system, with high performance exceeding any system call. Disk file IO is also a task.
* To realize any **high-performance** and **high-concurrency** back-end service with a very complex relationship between computing and networking.
* To build a **micro service** system.
* This project has built-in **service governance** and **load balancing** features.
* Wiki link : [PaaS Architecture](https://github.com/sogou/workflow/wiki)#### Compiling and running environment
* This project supports `Linux`, `macOS`, `Windows`, `Android` and other operating systems.
* `Windows` version is currently released as an independent [branch](https://github.com/sogou/workflow/tree/windows), using `iocp` to implement asynchronous networking. All user interfaces are consistent with the `Linux` version.
* Supports all CPU platforms, including 32 or 64-bit `x86` processors, big-endian or little-endian `arm` processors, `loongson` processors.
* Master branch requires SSL and `OpenSSL 1.1` or above is recommended. Fully compatible with BoringSSL. If you don't like SSL, you may checkout the [nossl](https://github.com/sogou/workflow/tree/nossl) branch.
* Uses the `C++11` standard and therefore, it should be compiled with a compiler which supports `C++11`. Does not rely on `boost` or `asio`.
* No other dependencies. However, if you need `Kafka` protocol, some compression libraries should be installed, including `lz4`, `zstd` and `snappy`.### Get started (Linux, macOS):

We believe that a typical back-end program=protocol+algorithm+workflow and should be developed completely independently.
* Protocol
* In most cases, users use built-in common network protocols, such as HTTP, Redis or various rpc.
* Users can also easily customize user-defined network protocol. In the customization, they only need to provide serialization and deserialization functions to define their own client/server.
* Algorithm
* In our design, the algorithm is a concept symmetrical to the protocol.
* If protocol call is rpc, then algorithm call is an apc (Async Procedure Call).
* We have provided some general algorithms, such as sort, merge, psort, reduce, which can be used directly.
* Compared with a user-defined protocol, a user-defined algorithm is much more common. Any complicated computation with clear boundaries should be packaged into an algorithm.
* Workflow
* Workflow is the actual business logic, which is to put the protocols and algorithms into the flow graph for use.
* The typical workflow is a closed series-parallel graph. Complex business logic may be a non-closed DAG.
* The workflow graph can be constructed directly or dynamically generated based on the results of each step. All tasks are executed asynchronously.Basic task, task factory and complex task
* Our system contains six basic tasks: networking, file IO, CPU, GPU, timer, and counter.
* All tasks are generated by the task factory and automatically recycled after callback.
* Server task is one kind of special networking task, generated by the framework which calls the task factory, and handed over to the user through the process function.
* In most cases, the task generated by the user through the task factory is a complex task, which is transparent to the user.
* For example, an HTTP request may include many asynchronous processes (DNS, redirection), but for user, it is just a networking task.
* File sorting seems to be an algorithm, but it actually includes many complex interaction processes between file IO and CPU computation.
* If you think of business logic as building circuits with well-designed electronic components, then each electronic component may be a complex circuit.Asynchrony and encapsulation based on `C++11 std::function`
* Not based on user mode coroutines. Users need to know that they are writing asynchronous programs.
* All calls are executed asynchronously, and there is almost no operation that occupies a thread.
* Although we also provide some facilities with semi-synchronous interfaces, they are not core features.
* We try to avoid user's derivations, and encapsulate user behavior with `std::function` instead, including:
* The callback of any task.
* Any server's process. This conforms to the `FaaS` (Function as a Service) idea.
* The realization of an algorithm is simply a `std::function`. But the algorithm can also be implemented by derivation.Memory reclamation mechanism
* Every task will be automatically reclaimed after the callback. If a task is created but a user does not want to run it, the user needs to release it through the dismiss method.
* Any data in the task, such as the response of the network request, will also be recycled with the task. At this time, the user can use `std::move()` to move the required data.
* SeriesWork and ParallelWork are two kinds of framework objects, which are also recycled after their callback.
* When a series is a branch of a parallel, it will be recycled after the callback of the parallel that it belongs to.
* This project doesn’t use `std::shared_ptr` to manage memory.#### Any other questions?
