defmodule Membrane.Sink do
@moduledoc """
Module defining behaviour for sinks - elements consuming data.
Behaviours for sinks are specified, besides this place, in modules
`Membrane.Element.Base`,
and `Membrane.Element.WithInputPads`.
Sink elements can define only input pads. Job of a usual sink is to receive some
data on such pad and consume it (write to a soundcard, send through TCP etc.).
If the pad works in pull mode, which is the most common case, then element is
also responsible for requesting demands when it is able and willing to consume
data (for more details, see `t:Membrane.Element.Action.demand_t/0`).
Sinks, like all elements, can of course have multiple pads if needed to
provide more complex solutions.

Callback that is called when buffer should be written by the sink.

For pads in pull mode it is called when buffers have been demanded (by returning
`:demand` action from any callback).
For pads in push mode it is invoked when buffers arrive.
