progressor

A visually appealing progress bar for long lasting computations. It also computes the remaining estimated time for the task by ad-hoc learning of the completion so far. For this reason scikit-learn and numpy are required.

You can install progressor via

pip install progressor

and import it in python using:

import progressor

Compute a task as follows:

from __future__ import print_function
import time

res = [ 0 ]

def task(elem):
    time.sleep(0.01)
    res[0] += elem

progressor.progress_list(range(1000), task, prefix="sleep list")
print(res[0])

or in a range:

def task_range(cur_ix, length):
    task(cur_ix)

progressor.progress(0, 1000, task_range, prefix="sleep range")
print(res[0])

or while reading a file:

with progressor.IOWrapper(open(datafile, "r"), prefix="loading data", out=sys.stdout) as f_in:
    data = f_in.read()

The output looks roughly like this:

sleep list: |████████████▌       |  62.30% (T   7.492s ETA   6.791s)

If no estimate of the progress towards completion can be made use:

def repeat(num):
    while True:
        yield num

progressor.progress_indef(repeat(1), task, prefix="sleep indefinitely")

which produces output like this:

sleep indefinitely: /
