Add async loading about fsharp.data HOT 5 OPEN

so much material for code sprint ! :)

from fsharp.data.

We could use your AsyncSeq for CSV

from fsharp.data.

Yep, AsyncSeq<Row> would be the right pattern, but then we would add a dependence to some other project (which is a bit unfortunate - I think depending on the entire fsharpx would be a bit too much). So I think we could use something - not sure what - that is easy to turn into AsyncSeq<Row> (for now).

(And perhaps - for the future - think about some FSharp.CoreEx (bad name, obviously) project that would contain just the absolutely necessary interfaces that are shared by multiple packages?)

from fsharp.data.

Why do think a dependency on FSharpx.Core is so bad? It's not too big, and NuGet takes care of the dependencies

from fsharp.data.

Reopening this, since the landscape has changed a bit. AsyncSeq is now a standalone F# package, so maybe having FSharp.Data depend on that wouldn't be so bad? The CsvProvider would really benefit, since right the async methods are not really async. On one hand the extra dependency is always good to avoid, but on the other hand, it would fit very nicely, would help get AsyncSeq a bit more mainstream, and since we're releasing a new major version with 3.0, would be a good time to do it if we want to.

@tpetricek, @dsyme , @colinbull , @baronfel what do you think?
