Executor Objects¶

class asyncpool.ProcessAsyncPoolExecutor(*, pool_size: Optional[int] = 4, max_works_per_worker: Optional[int] = 300, load_balancer: Optional[asyncpool.load_balancers.LoadBalancer] = <class 'asyncpool.load_balancers.RoundRobin'>, awaitable: Optional[bool] = False, future_loop: asyncio.events.AbstractEventLoop = None, worker_loop_factory: Optional[asyncio.events.AbstractEventLoop] = None)[source]¶

Setups executor and adds self to executor track set.

Parameters:

pool_size – Number of workers, i.e., number of threads or processes.
max_works_per_worker – The max number of works a worker can run at the same time. This does not limit the number of asyncio tasks of a worker.
load_balancer – A subclass of asyncpool.LoadBalancer for submitted item load balancing that has implemented abstract method get_proper_worker.
awaitable – If it’s set to True, futures returned from submit method will be awaitable, and map will return async generator(async iterator if python3.5).
future_loop –
Loop instance set in awaitable futures returned from submit method.

If specified, awaitable must be set to true.

This loop can also be set in set_future_loop method.
worker_loop_factory – A factory to generate loop instance for workers to run their job.

Raises:

ValueError – future_loop is specified while awaitable is False.

map(work: Callable, *iterables, timeout: Optional[float] = None, chunksize: int = 1, load_balancing_meta: Optional[Any] = None) → Union[AsyncGenerator[T_co, T_contra], Generator[T_co, T_contra, V_co]]¶

map your work like the way in concurrent.futures.

The work submitted will be sent to the specific worker that the load balancer choose.

Note

The work you submit should be a callable, And a coroutine is not a callable. You should submit a coroutine function and specify its args and kwargs here instead.

Parameters:

work – The callable that will be run in a worker.
*iterables – Position arguments for work. All of them are iterable and have same length.
timeout – The time limit for waiting results.
chunksize – Works are gathered, partitioned as chunks in this size, and then sent to workers.
load_balancing_meta – This will be passed to load balancer for the choice of proper worker.

Returns:

A async generator yielding the map results if awaitable is set to True, otherwise a generator. In python3.5, async iterator is used to replace async generator.

If a exception is raised in a work, it will be re-raised in the generator, and the remaining works will be cancelled.

Raises:

ValueError – If chunksize is less than 1.
TypeError – If work is not a callable.

set_future_loop(loop: asyncio.events.AbstractEventLoop)¶

Module contents¶

Run your coroutines and functions in child processes or threads like the way using concurrnet.futures.

Users can prosess works concurrently and in parallel.

Example

Below is a example sending http request using asyncpool with the helps of aiohttp and uvloop:

import aiohttp
import uvloop
from asyncpool import ProcessAsyncPoolExecutor

async def demo(url):
    async with aiohttp.request('GET', url) as response:
        return response.status

if __name__ == '__main__':
    pool = ProcessAsyncPoolExecutor(pool_size=8,
                                    worker_loop_factory=uvloop.Loop)
    future = pool.submit(demo, 'http://httpbin.org')
    print('Status: %d.' % future.result())

The result will be:

Status: 200

Note: If you are running python on windows, if __name__ == '__main__': is necessary. That’s the design of multiprocessing.
