Quick Start
|
||
-----------
|
||
|
||
.. code:: python
|
||
|
||
import multitasking
|
||
import time
|
||
|
||
@multitasking.task
|
||
def fetch_data(url_id):
|
||
# Simulate API call or I/O operation
|
||
time.sleep(1)
|
||
return f"Data from {url_id}"
|
||
|
||
# These run concurrently, not sequentially!
|
||
for i in range(5):
|
||
fetch_data(i)
|
||
|
||
# Wait for all tasks to complete
|
||
multitasking.wait_for_tasks()
|
||
print("All data fetched!")
|
||
|
||
Basic Example
|
||
-------------
|
||
|
||
.. code:: python
|
||
|
||
# example.py
|
||
import multitasking
|
||
import time
|
||
import random
|
||
import signal
|
||
|
||
# Kill all tasks on ctrl-c (recommended for development)
|
||
signal.signal(signal.SIGINT, multitasking.killall)
|
||
|
||
# Or, wait for tasks to finish gracefully on ctrl-c:
|
||
# signal.signal(signal.SIGINT, multitasking.wait_for_tasks)
|
||
|
||
@multitasking.task # <== this is all it takes! 🎉
|
||
def hello(count):
|
||
sleep_time = random.randint(1, 10) / 2
|
||
print(f"Hello {count} (sleeping for {sleep_time}s)")
|
||
time.sleep(sleep_time)
|
||
print(f"Goodbye {count} (slept for {sleep_time}s)")
|
||
|
||
if __name__ == "__main__":
|
||
# Launch 10 concurrent tasks
|
||
for i in range(10):
|
||
hello(i + 1)
|
||
|
||
# Wait for all tasks to complete
|
||
multitasking.wait_for_tasks()
|
||
print("All tasks completed!")
|
||
|
||
**Output:**
|
||
|
||
.. code:: bash

Advanced Usage
|
||
==============
|
||
|
||
Real-World Examples
|
||
-------------------
|
||
|
||
**Web Scraping with Concurrent Requests:**
|
||
|
||
.. code:: python
|
||
|
||
import multitasking
|
||
import requests
|
||
import signal
|
||
|
||
signal.signal(signal.SIGINT, multitasking.killall)
|
||
|
||
@multitasking.task
|
||
def fetch_url(url):
|
||
try:
|
||
response = requests.get(url, timeout=10)
|
||
print(f"✅ {url}: {response.status_code}")
|
||
return response.text
|
||
except Exception as e:
|
||
print(f"❌ {url}: {str(e)}")
|
||
return None
|
||
|
||
# Fetch multiple URLs concurrently
|
||
urls = [
|
||
"https://httpbin.org/delay/1",
|
||
"https://httpbin.org/delay/2",
|
||
"https://httpbin.org/status/200",
|
||
"https://httpbin.org/json"
|
||
]
|
||
|
||
for url in urls:
|
||
fetch_url(url)
|
||
|
||
multitasking.wait_for_tasks()
|
||
print(f"Processed {len(urls)} URLs concurrently!")
|
||
|
||
**Database Operations:**
|
||
|
||
.. code:: python
|
||
|
||
import multitasking
|
||
import sqlite3
|
||
import time
|
||
|
||
@multitasking.task
|
||
def process_batch(batch_id, data_batch):
|
||
# Simulate database processing
|
||
conn = sqlite3.connect(f'batch_{batch_id}.db')
|
||
# ... database operations ...
|
||
conn.close()
|
||
print(f"Processed batch {batch_id} with {len(data_batch)} records")
|
||
|
||
# Process multiple data batches concurrently
|
||
large_dataset = list(range(1000))
|
||
batch_size = 100
|
||
|
||
for i in range(0, len(large_dataset), batch_size):
|
||
batch = large_dataset[i:i + batch_size]
|
||
process_batch(i // batch_size, batch)
|
||
|
||
multitasking.wait_for_tasks()
|
||
|
||
Pool Management
|
||
---------------
|
||
|
||
MultiTasking uses execution pools to manage concurrent tasks. You can
|
||
create and configure multiple pools for different types of operations:
|
||
|
||
.. code:: python
|
||
|
||
import multitasking
|
||
|
||
# Create a pool for API calls (higher concurrency)
|
||
multitasking.createPool("api_pool", threads=20, engine="thread")
|
||
|
||
# Create a pool for CPU-intensive tasks (lower concurrency)
|
||
multitasking.createPool("cpu_pool", threads=4, engine="process")
|
||
|
||
# Switch between pools
|
||
multitasking.use_tag("api_pool") # Future tasks use this pool
|
||
|
||
@multitasking.task
|
||
def api_call(endpoint):
|
||
# This will use the api_pool
|
||
pass
|
||
|
||
# Get pool information
|
||
pool_info = multitasking.getPool("api_pool")
|
||
print(f"Pool: {pool_info}") # {'engine': 'thread', 'name': 'api_pool', 'threads': 20}
|
||
|
||
Task Monitoring
|
||
---------------
|
||
|
||
Monitor and control your tasks with built-in functions:
|
||
|
||
.. code:: python
|
||
|
||
import multitasking
|
||
import time
|
||
|
||
@multitasking.task
|
||
def long_running_task(task_id):
|
||
time.sleep(2)
|
||
print(f"Task {task_id} completed")
|
||
|
||
# Start some tasks
|
||
for i in range(5):
|
||
long_running_task(i)
|
||
|
||
# Monitor active tasks
|
||
while multitasking.get_active_tasks():
|
||
active_count = len(multitasking.get_active_tasks())
|
||
total_count = len(multitasking.get_list_of_tasks())
|
||
print(f"Progress: {total_count - active_count}/{total_count} completed")
|
||
time.sleep(0.5)
|
||
|
||
print("All tasks finished!")
|
||
|
||
Configuration & Settings
|
||
========================
|
||
|
||
Thread/Process Limits
|
||
---------------------
|
||
|
||
The default maximum threads equals the number of CPU cores. You can
|
||
customize this:
|
||
|
||
.. code:: python
|
||
|
||
import multitasking
|
||
|
||
# Set maximum concurrent tasks
|
||
multitasking.set_max_threads(10)
|
||
|
||
# Scale based on CPU cores (good rule of thumb for I/O-bound tasks)
|
||
multitasking.set_max_threads(multitasking.config["CPU_CORES"] * 5)
|
||
|
||
# Unlimited concurrent tasks (use carefully!)
|
||
multitasking.set_max_threads(0)
|
||
|
||
Execution Engine Selection
|
||
--------------------------
|
||
|
||
Choose between threading and multiprocessing based on your use case:
|
||
|
||
.. code:: python
|
||
|
||
import multitasking
|
||
|
||
# For I/O-bound tasks (default, recommended for most cases)
|
||
multitasking.set_engine("thread")
|
||
|
||
# For CPU-bound tasks (avoids GIL limitations)
|
||
multitasking.set_engine("process")
|
||
|
||
**When to use threads vs processes:**
|
||
|
||
- **Threads** (default): Best for I/O-bound tasks like file operations,
|
||
network requests, database queries
|
||
- **Processes**: Best for CPU-intensive tasks like mathematical
|
||
computations, image processing, data analysis
|
||
|
||
Advanced Pool Configuration
|
||
---------------------------
|
||
|
||
Create specialized pools for different workloads:
|
||
|
||
.. code:: python
|
||
|
||
import multitasking
|
||
|
||
# Fast pool for quick API calls
|
||
multitasking.createPool("fast_api", threads=50, engine="thread")
|
||
|
||
# CPU pool for heavy computation
|
||
multitasking.createPool("compute", threads=2, engine="process")
|
||
|
||
# Unlimited pool for lightweight tasks
|
||
multitasking.createPool("unlimited", threads=0, engine="thread")
|
||
|
||
# Get current pool info
|
||
current_pool = multitasking.getPool()
|
||
print(f"Using pool: {current_pool['name']}")
|
||
|
||
Best Practices
|
||
==============
|
||
|
||
Performance Tips
|
||
----------------
|
||
|
||
1. **Choose the right engine**: Use threads for I/O-bound tasks,
|
||
processes for CPU-bound tasks
|
||
2. **Tune thread counts**: Start with CPU cores × 2-5 for I/O tasks, CPU
|
||
cores for CPU tasks
|
||
3. **Use pools wisely**: Create separate pools for different types of
|
||
operations
|
||
4. **Monitor memory usage**: Each thread/process consumes memory
|
||
5. **Handle exceptions**: Always wrap risky operations in try-catch
|
||
blocks
|
||
|
||
Error Handling
|
||
--------------
|
||
|
||
.. code:: python
|
||
|
||
import multitasking
|
||
import requests
|
||
|
||
@multitasking.task
|
||
def robust_fetch(url):
|
||
try:
|
||
response = requests.get(url, timeout=10)
|
||
response.raise_for_status()
|
||
return response.json()
|
||
except requests.exceptions.Timeout:
|
||
print(f"⏰ Timeout fetching {url}")
|
||
except requests.exceptions.RequestException as e:
|
||
print(f"❌ Error fetching {url}: {e}")
|
||
except Exception as e:
|
||
print(f"💥 Unexpected error: {e}")
|
||
return None
|
||
|
||
Resource Management
|
||
-------------------
|
||
|
||
.. code:: python
|
||
|
||
import multitasking
|
||
import signal
|
||
|
||
# Graceful shutdown on interrupt
|
||
def cleanup_handler(signum, frame):
|
||
print("🛑 Shutting down gracefully...")
|
||
multitasking.wait_for_tasks()
|
||
print("✅ All tasks completed")
|
||
exit(0)
|
||
|
||
signal.signal(signal.SIGINT, cleanup_handler)
|
||
|
||
# Your application code here...
|
||
|
||
Troubleshooting
|
||
===============
|
||
|
||
Common Issues
|
||
-------------
|
||
|
||
**Tasks not running concurrently?** Check if you’re calling
|
||
``wait_for_tasks()`` inside your task loop instead of after it.
|
||
|
||
**High memory usage?** Reduce the number of concurrent threads or switch
|
||
to a process-based engine.
|
||
|
||
**Tasks hanging?** Ensure your tasks can complete (avoid infinite loops)
|
||
and handle exceptions properly.
|
||
|
||
**Import errors?** Make sure you’re using Python 3.6+ and have installed
|
||
the latest version.
|
||
|
||
Debugging
|
||
---------
|
||
|
||
.. code:: python
|
||
|
||
import multitasking
|
||
|
||
# Enable task monitoring
|
||
active_tasks = multitasking.get_active_tasks()
|
||
all_tasks = multitasking.get_list_of_tasks()
|
||
|
||
print(f"Active: {len(active_tasks)}, Total: {len(all_tasks)}")
|
||
|
||
# Get current pool configuration
|
||
pool_info = multitasking.getPool()

execution:
|
||
|
||
.. code:: python
|
||
|
||
import multitasking
|
||
import time
|
||
import requests
|
||
|
||
# Synchronous version
|
||
def sync_fetch():
|
||
start = time.time()
|
||
for i in range(10):
|
||
requests.get("https://httpbin.org/delay/1")
|
||
print(f"Synchronous: {time.time() - start:.2f}s")
|
||
|
||
# Asynchronous version
|
||
@multitasking.task
|
||
def async_fetch():
|
||
requests.get("https://httpbin.org/delay/1")
|
||
|
||
def concurrent_fetch():
|
||
start = time.time()
|
||
for i in range(10):
|
||
async_fetch()
|
||
multitasking.wait_for_tasks()
|
||
print(f"Concurrent: {time.time() - start:.2f}s")
|
||
|
||
# Results: Synchronous ~10s, Concurrent ~1s (10x speedup!)
