虽然不可能直接捕获在不同线程中抛出的异常，但下面的代码可以相当透明地获取与此功能非常接近的内容。子线程必须继承ExThread类而不是线程。线程和父线程在等待线程完成任务时必须调用child_thread.join_with_exception()方法，而不是child_thread.join()方法。

此实现的技术细节:当子线程抛出异常时，它将通过Queue传递给父线程，并在父线程中再次抛出。注意，在这种方法中没有忙碌等待。

#!/usr/bin/env python

import sys
import threading
import Queue

class ExThread(threading.Thread):
    def __init__(self):
        threading.Thread.__init__(self)
        self.__status_queue = Queue.Queue()

    def run_with_exception(self):
        """This method should be overriden."""
        raise NotImplementedError

    def run(self):
        """This method should NOT be overriden."""
        try:
            self.run_with_exception()
        except BaseException:
            self.__status_queue.put(sys.exc_info())
        self.__status_queue.put(None)

    def wait_for_exc_info(self):
        return self.__status_queue.get()

    def join_with_exception(self):
        ex_info = self.wait_for_exc_info()
        if ex_info is None:
            return
        else:
            raise ex_info[1]

class MyException(Exception):
    pass

class MyThread(ExThread):
    def __init__(self):
        ExThread.__init__(self)

    def run_with_exception(self):
        thread_name = threading.current_thread().name
        raise MyException("An error in thread '{}'.".format(thread_name))

def main():
    t = MyThread()
    t.start()
    try:
        t.join_with_exception()
    except MyException as ex:
        thread_name = threading.current_thread().name
        print "Caught a MyException in thread '{}': {}".format(thread_name, ex)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

并发。Futures模块使得在单独的线程(或进程)中工作并处理任何由此产生的异常变得简单:

import concurrent.futures
import shutil

def copytree_with_dots(src_path, dst_path):
    with concurrent.futures.ThreadPoolExecutor(max_workers=1) as executor:
        # Execute the copy on a separate thread,
        # creating a future object to track progress.
        future = executor.submit(shutil.copytree, src_path, dst_path)

        while future.running():
            # Print pretty dots here.
            pass

        # Return the value returned by shutil.copytree(), None.
        # Raise any exceptions raised during the copy process.
        return future.result()

并发。futures包含在Python 3.2中，并可作为早期版本的反向移植futures模块使用。

这是一个棘手的小问题，我想提出我的解决方案。我发现了一些其他的解决方案(异步。例如IO)看起来很有前途，但也呈现出一些黑盒子。队列/事件循环方法将您与某个实现联系在一起。然而，并发期货的源代码只有大约1000行，很容易理解。它让我很容易地解决了我的问题:创建临时的工作线程，而不需要太多的设置，并且能够在主线程中捕获异常。

我的解决方案使用并发期货API和线程API。它允许你创建一个worker，给你线程和未来。这样，你就可以加入线程来等待结果:

worker = Worker(test)
thread = worker.start()
thread.join()
print(worker.future.result())

.．.或者你可以让worker在完成时发送一个回调:

worker = Worker(test)
thread = worker.start(lambda x: print('callback', x))

.．.或者你可以循环直到事件完成:

worker = Worker(test)
thread = worker.start()

while True:
    print("waiting")
    if worker.future.done():
        exc = worker.future.exception()
        print('exception?', exc)
        result = worker.future.result()
        print('result', result)           
        break
    time.sleep(0.25)

代码如下:

from concurrent.futures import Future
import threading
import time

class Worker(object):
    def __init__(self, fn, args=()):
        self.future = Future()
        self._fn = fn
        self._args = args

    def start(self, cb=None):
        self._cb = cb
        self.future.set_running_or_notify_cancel()
        thread = threading.Thread(target=self.run, args=())
        thread.daemon = True #this will continue thread execution after the main thread runs out of code - you can still ctrl + c or kill the process
        thread.start()
        return thread

    def run(self):
        try:
            self.future.set_result(self._fn(*self._args))
        except BaseException as e:
            self.future.set_exception(e)

        if(self._cb):
            self._cb(self.future.result())

.．.和测试函数:

def test(*args):
    print('args are', args)
    time.sleep(2)
    raise Exception('foo')

我喜欢这门课:

import threading
from typing import Any


class PropagatingThread(threading.Thread):
    """A Threading Class that raises errors it caught, and returns the return value of the target on join."""

    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        self._target = None
        self._args = ()
        self._kwargs = {}
        super().__init__(*args, **kwargs)
        self.exception = None
        self.return_value = None
        assert self._target

    def run(self):
        """Don't override this if you want the behavior of this class, use target instead."""
        try:
            if self._target:
                self.return_value = self._target(*self._args, **self._kwargs)
        except Exception as e:
            self.exception = e
        finally:
            # see super().run() for why this is necessary
            del self._target, self._args, self._kwargs

    def join(self, timeout=None) -> Any:
        super().join(timeout)
        if self.exception:
            raise self.exception
        return self.return_value

使用异常存储包装线程。

import threading
import sys
class ExcThread(threading.Thread):

    def __init__(self, target, args = None):
        self.args = args if args else []
        self.target = target
        self.exc = None
        threading.Thread.__init__(self)

    def run(self):
        try:
            self.target(*self.args)
            raise Exception('An error occured here.')
        except Exception:
            self.exc=sys.exc_info()

def main():
    def hello(name):
        print(!"Hello, {name}!")
    thread_obj = ExcThread(target=hello, args=("Jack"))
    thread_obj.start()

    thread_obj.join()
    exc = thread_obj.exc
    if exc:
        exc_type, exc_obj, exc_trace = exc
        print(exc_type, ':',exc_obj, ":", exc_trace)

main()

我使用这个版本，它是最小的，它工作得很好。

class SafeThread(threading.Thread):
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        super(SafeThread, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
        self.exception = None

    def run(self) -> None:
        try:
            super(SafeThread, self).run()
        except Exception as ex:
            self.exception = ex
            traceback.print_exc()

    def join(self, *args, **kwargs) -> None:
        super(SafeThread, self).join(*args, **kwargs)
        if self.exception:
            raise self.exception

要使用它，只需替换线程。带安全线程的线程

t = SafeThread(target = some_function, args = (some, args,))
t.start()
# do something else here if you want as the thread runs in the background
t.join()
