asyncio的另一个解决方案:

如果你想取消后台任务，而不仅仅是在运行的主代码上超时，那么你需要一个来自主线程的显式通信，要求任务的代码取消，比如threading.Event()

import asyncio
import functools
import multiprocessing
from concurrent.futures.thread import ThreadPoolExecutor


class SingletonTimeOut:
    pool = None

    @classmethod
    def run(cls, to_run: functools.partial, timeout: float):
        pool = cls.get_pool()
        loop = cls.get_loop()
        try:
            task = loop.run_in_executor(pool, to_run)
            return loop.run_until_complete(asyncio.wait_for(task, timeout=timeout))
        except asyncio.TimeoutError as e:
            error_type = type(e).__name__ #TODO
            raise e

    @classmethod
    def get_pool(cls):
        if cls.pool is None:
            cls.pool = ThreadPoolExecutor(multiprocessing.cpu_count())
        return cls.pool

    @classmethod
    def get_loop(cls):
        try:
            return asyncio.get_event_loop()
        except RuntimeError:
            asyncio.set_event_loop(asyncio.new_event_loop())
            # print("NEW LOOP" + str(threading.current_thread().ident))
            return asyncio.get_event_loop()

# ---------------

TIME_OUT = float('0.2')  # seconds

def toto(input_items,nb_predictions):
    return 1

to_run = functools.partial(toto,
                           input_items=1,
                           nb_predictions="a")

results = SingletonTimeOut.run(to_run, TIME_OUT)

突出了

引发TimeoutError使用异常在超时时发出警报-可以很容易地修改 跨平台:Windows和Mac OS X 兼容性:Python 3.6+(我也在Python 2.7上进行了测试，它可以在很小的语法调整下工作)

最小的例子

>>> @killer_call(timeout=4)
... def bar(x):
...        import time
...        time.sleep(x)
...        return x
>>> bar(10)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  ...
__main__.TimeoutError: function 'bar' timed out after 4s

正如预期的那样

>>> bar(2)
2

笔记

由于dill的工作方式，您需要在函数内部导入。

这也意味着如果目标函数中有导入，这些函数可能与doctest不兼容。你将会遇到__import__未找到的问题。

我需要一个不会被时间阻塞的可嵌套定时中断(SIGALARM不能做到)。Sleep(基于线程的方法不能做到)。我最终复制了这里的代码并对其进行了轻微修改:http://code.activestate.com/recipes/577600-queue-for-managing-multiple-sigalrm-alarms-concurr/

代码本身:

__set_alarm = lambda: signal.alarm(max(__next_alarm(), 1))

还有一个用法示例:

import alarm
from time import sleep

try:
    with alarm.Timeout(id_='a', seconds=5):
        try:
            with alarm.Timeout(id_='b', seconds=2):
                sleep(3)
        except alarm.TimeoutError as e:
            print 'raised', e.id_
        sleep(30)
except alarm.TimeoutError as e:
    print 'raised', e.id_
else:
    print 'nope.'

有很多建议，但没有一个是使用并发的。期货，我认为这是最清晰的处理方式。

from concurrent.futures import ProcessPoolExecutor

# Warning: this does not terminate function if timeout
def timeout_five(fnc, *args, **kwargs):
    with ProcessPoolExecutor() as p:
        f = p.submit(fnc, *args, **kwargs)
        return f.result(timeout=5)

超级简单的阅读和维护。

我们创建一个池，提交一个进程，然后等待5秒，然后引发一个TimeoutError，你可以根据需要捕获和处理它。

本机为python 3.2+，并反向移植到2.7 (pip install futures)。

线程和进程之间的切换非常简单，只需将ProcessPoolExecutor替换为ThreadPoolExecutor。

如果您想在超时时终止进程，我建议您查看Pebble。

asyncio的另一个解决方案:

如果你想取消后台任务，而不仅仅是在运行的主代码上超时，那么你需要一个来自主线程的显式通信，要求任务的代码取消，比如threading.Event()

import asyncio
import functools
import multiprocessing
from concurrent.futures.thread import ThreadPoolExecutor


class SingletonTimeOut:
    pool = None

    @classmethod
    def run(cls, to_run: functools.partial, timeout: float):
        pool = cls.get_pool()
        loop = cls.get_loop()
        try:
            task = loop.run_in_executor(pool, to_run)
            return loop.run_until_complete(asyncio.wait_for(task, timeout=timeout))
        except asyncio.TimeoutError as e:
            error_type = type(e).__name__ #TODO
            raise e

    @classmethod
    def get_pool(cls):
        if cls.pool is None:
            cls.pool = ThreadPoolExecutor(multiprocessing.cpu_count())
        return cls.pool

    @classmethod
    def get_loop(cls):
        try:
            return asyncio.get_event_loop()
        except RuntimeError:
            asyncio.set_event_loop(asyncio.new_event_loop())
            # print("NEW LOOP" + str(threading.current_thread().ident))
            return asyncio.get_event_loop()

# ---------------

TIME_OUT = float('0.2')  # seconds

def toto(input_items,nb_predictions):
    return 1

to_run = functools.partial(toto,
                           input_items=1,
                           nb_predictions="a")

results = SingletonTimeOut.run(to_run, TIME_OUT)

我怎么调用函数或者我怎么包装它，如果它超过5秒脚本取消它?

我发布了一个要点，用装饰器和threading.Timer解决了这个问题。下面是它的分类。

导入和设置兼容性

它是用Python 2和3测试的。它也应该在Unix/Linux和Windows下工作。

首先是进口。这些尝试保持代码的一致性，而不管Python版本:

from __future__ import print_function
import sys
import threading
from time import sleep
try:
    import thread
except ImportError:
    import _thread as thread

使用版本独立代码:

try:
    range, _print = xrange, print
    def print(*args, **kwargs): 
        flush = kwargs.pop('flush', False)
        _print(*args, **kwargs)
        if flush:
            kwargs.get('file', sys.stdout).flush()            
except NameError:
    pass

现在我们已经从标准库导入了我们的功能。

exit_after装饰

接下来，我们需要一个函数来终止子线程的main():

def quit_function(fn_name):
    # print to stderr, unbuffered in Python 2.
    print('{0} took too long'.format(fn_name), file=sys.stderr)
    sys.stderr.flush() # Python 3 stderr is likely buffered.
    thread.interrupt_main() # raises KeyboardInterrupt

这是decorator本身:

def exit_after(s):
    '''
    use as decorator to exit process if 
    function takes longer than s seconds
    '''
    def outer(fn):
        def inner(*args, **kwargs):
            timer = threading.Timer(s, quit_function, args=[fn.__name__])
            timer.start()
            try:
                result = fn(*args, **kwargs)
            finally:
                timer.cancel()
            return result
        return inner
    return outer

使用

下面这个用法直接回答了你关于5秒后退出的问题!：

@exit_after(5)
def countdown(n):
    print('countdown started', flush=True)
    for i in range(n, -1, -1):
        print(i, end=', ', flush=True)
        sleep(1)
    print('countdown finished')

演示:

>>> countdown(3)
countdown started
3, 2, 1, 0, countdown finished
>>> countdown(10)
countdown started
10, 9, 8, 7, 6, countdown took too long
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "<stdin>", line 11, in inner
  File "<stdin>", line 6, in countdown
KeyboardInterrupt

第二个函数调用将不会结束，相反，进程应该退出并返回一个跟踪!

KeyboardInterrupt并不总是停止一个睡眠线程

注意，在Windows上的Python 2中，睡眠并不总是被键盘中断中断，例如:

@exit_after(1)
def sleep10():
    sleep(10)
    print('slept 10 seconds')

>>> sleep10()
sleep10 took too long         # Note that it hangs here about 9 more seconds
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "<stdin>", line 11, in inner
  File "<stdin>", line 3, in sleep10
KeyboardInterrupt

它也不可能中断扩展中运行的代码，除非它显式地检查PyErr_CheckSignals()，参见忽略Cython, Python和KeyboardInterrupt

在任何情况下，我都会避免让线程休眠超过一秒钟——这在处理器时间上是一eon。

我怎么调用这个函数或者我把它包装在什么里面，这样如果它花费超过5秒脚本就会取消它并做其他事情?

要捕获它并做其他事情，你可以捕获KeyboardInterrupt。

>>> try:
...     countdown(10)
... except KeyboardInterrupt:
...     print('do something else')
... 
countdown started
10, 9, 8, 7, 6, countdown took too long
do something else
