gen-stage

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps Elixir developers build robust, concurrent data processing pipelines that automatically manage back-pressure, preventing system overload and ensuring efficient data flow.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Producer/Consumer Model: Define data sources and sinks with automatic flow control.
• Back-Pressure Management: Ensures consumers don't get overwhelmed by producers.
• Dispatcher Patterns: Supports Broadcast (fan-out) and Partition (key-based routing) for flexible data distribution.
• Use Case: Process a high volume of incoming webhooks by having a producer stage receive them, a producer-consumer stage transform the data, and a consumer stage persist it to a database, all while managing the flow rate.

Quick Start

Use the gen-stage skill to create a basic pipeline with a producer and a consumer.
