threader's Introduction

Threader

Multi-threader with threadpool, allowing you to run multiple threads concurrently.

Installation

sudo pip install git+https://github.com/rickdonato/threader.git
sudo pip install git+ssh://[email protected]/rickdonato/threader.git

Usage

To use, create a class using Threader as the base class. Then build your task function. The task function must be named run_task.

>>> from threader import Threader
>>>
>>> class ThreadTask(Threader):
>>>     def run_task(self,task):
>>>         print task
>>>         self.results.update({task:task})
>>> 
>>> t = ThreadTask(range(100))
>>> results = t.run_threads()
>>>
>>> print results
>>> {0: 0, 1: 1, 2: 2, 3: 3, 4: 4, 5: 5, 6: 6, 7: 7, 8: 8, 9: 9, 10: 10, 11: 11, 12: 12, 13: 13, 14: 14, 15: 15, 16: 16, 17: 17, 18: 18, 19: 19, 20: 20, 21: 21, 22: 22, 23: 23, 24: 24, 25: 25, 26: 26, 27: 27, 28: 28, 29: 29, 30: 30, 31: 31, 32: 32, 33: 33, 34: 34, 35: 35, 36: 36, 37: 37, 38: 38, 39: 39, 40: 40, 41: 41, 42: 42, 43: 43, 44: 44, 45: 45, 46: 46, 47: 47, 48: 48, 49: 49, 50: 50, 51: 51, 52: 52, 53: 53, 54: 54, 55: 55, 56: 56, 57: 57, 58: 58, 59: 59, 60: 60, 61: 61, 62: 62, 63: 63, 64: 64, 65: 65, 66: 66, 67: 67, 68: 68, 69: 69, 70: 70, 71: 71, 72: 72, 73: 73, 74: 74, 75: 75, 76: 76, 77: 77, 78: 78, 79: 79, 80: 80, 81: 81, 82: 82, 83: 83, 84: 84, 85: 85, 86: 86, 87: 87, 88: 88, 89: 89, 90: 90, 91: 91, 92: 92, 93: 93, 94: 94, 95: 95, 96: 96, 97: 97, 98: 98, 99: 99}

At the point all threads have been run the dict() self.results is returned.

To change the size of the thread pool i.e the number of concurrent threads the variable max_pool is used. The default is 12.

>>> t = ThreadTask(range(100),max_pool=100)
