Dispatching channels with multiple message types about msgspec HOT 5 CLOSED

I should also note I'm willing to PR / test something if you have any suggestions. I'm not comfortable in C, but am reasonably comfortable writing some Cython.

Hi @limx0, if I understand correctly you're looking to dispatch the type of the message to one of several types based on the value of a Type key in the message? If so, have you seen https://jcristharif.com/msgspec/structs.html#tagged-unions? This is exactly what that feature is for.

Yes thats correct; and this looks exactly like what I am after. Apologies for not reading the docs correctly!

No worries! Is the documentation clear enough? Is there a different place you looked for information like this? There might be a better way to organize the docs.

I think the docs are clear now that they're been pointed out to me. Probably what I was looking for was something along the lines of "processing/handling multiple types in a stream" or something to that effect; Tagged Unions didn't jump out at me as what I was after.
