Send message from independent function

I assume you’ve fixed this at this point, but the idea is you return Tasks to the runtime and let it execute them.

Task::perform(my_async_fn(), Message::ActionGesture) is the way to use it, assuming my_async_fn() returns type T and Message looks like:

pub enum Message {
    ActionGesture(T)
}

That T can be whatever you want, so long as they match. If T is (), then just make it

pub enum Message {
    ActionGesture
}

I think that ought to work

You could also Task::future(my_async_fn()).map(Message::ActionGesture)
