py_easy_async provides simple interface for threading to easy perform async actions in Python versions 3.4 and up
Example of simple async operations
import py_easy_async
import time
def print_with_sleep(word):
time.sleep(1)
print(word)
return 'done'
print('first')
py_easy_async.async(lambda: print_with_sleep('second'),
lambda done_string: print("done callback called with string: %s" % done_string))
print('third')The above example will print the following:
first
third
second
done callback called with string: doneExample of thread pool management
from py_easy_async import pool
def message_handler(message):
print('got message:', message)
identifier = pool.run_thread(message_handler, name='Persistent-Thread')
for i in range(5):
pool.message(identifier, "test message #%s" % i)
pool.stop_thread(identifier)The above example will start thread that will wait for messages that it should process:
Persistent-Thread starting...
got message: test message #0
got message: test message #1
got message: test message #2
got message: test message #3
got message: test message #4
Persistent-Thread exiting...License
