我在Python中调用一个函数,我知道这个函数可能会暂停,并迫使我重新启动脚本。

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?

伟大的,易于使用和可靠的PyPi项目超时装饰器(https://pypi.org/project/timeout-decorator/)

安装:

pip install timeout-decorator

用法:

import time
import timeout_decorator

@timeout_decorator.timeout(5)
def mytest():
    print "Start"
    for i in range(1,10):
        time.sleep(1)
        print "%d seconds have passed" % i

if __name__ == '__main__':
    mytest()

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。

下面是一个POSIX版本,它结合了前面的许多答案来提供以下特性:

子进程阻塞执行。 timeout函数在类成员函数上的使用。 严格要求终止时间。

下面是代码和一些测试用例:

import threading
import signal
import os
import time

class TerminateExecution(Exception):
    """
    Exception to indicate that execution has exceeded the preset running time.
    """


def quit_function(pid):
    # Killing all subprocesses
    os.setpgrp()
    os.killpg(0, signal.SIGTERM)

    # Killing the main thread
    os.kill(pid, signal.SIGTERM)


def handle_term(signum, frame):
    raise TerminateExecution()


def invoke_with_timeout(timeout, fn, *args, **kwargs):
    # Setting a sigterm handler and initiating a timer
    old_handler = signal.signal(signal.SIGTERM, handle_term)
    timer = threading.Timer(timeout, quit_function, args=[os.getpid()])
    terminate = False

    # Executing the function
    timer.start()
    try:
        result = fn(*args, **kwargs)
    except TerminateExecution:
        terminate = True
    finally:
        # Restoring original handler and cancel timer
        signal.signal(signal.SIGTERM, old_handler)
        timer.cancel()

    if terminate:
        raise BaseException("xxx")

    return result

### Test cases
def countdown(n):
    print('countdown started', flush=True)
    for i in range(n, -1, -1):
        print(i, end=', ', flush=True)
        time.sleep(1)
    print('countdown finished')
    return 1337


def really_long_function():
    time.sleep(10)


def really_long_function2():
    os.system("sleep 787")


# Checking that we can run a function as expected.
assert invoke_with_timeout(3, countdown, 1) == 1337

# Testing various scenarios
t1 = time.time()
try:
    print(invoke_with_timeout(1, countdown, 3))
    assert(False)
except BaseException:
    assert(time.time() - t1 < 1.1)
    print("All good", time.time() - t1)

t1 = time.time()
try:
    print(invoke_with_timeout(1, really_long_function2))
    assert(False)
except BaseException:
    assert(time.time() - t1 < 1.1)
    print("All good", time.time() - t1)


t1 = time.time()
try:
    print(invoke_with_timeout(1, really_long_function))
    assert(False)
except BaseException:
    assert(time.time() - t1 < 1.1)
    print("All good", time.time() - t1)

# Checking that classes are referenced and not
# copied (as would be the case with multiprocessing)


class X:
    def __init__(self):
        self.value = 0

    def set(self, v):
        self.value = v


x = X()
invoke_with_timeout(2, x.set, 9)
assert x.value == 9

在pypi上找到的stopit包似乎可以很好地处理超时。

我喜欢@stopit。Threading_timeoutable装饰器,它向被装饰的函数添加了一个超时参数,该参数执行您所期望的操作,它将停止该函数。

在pypi上查看:https://pypi.python.org/pypi/stopit

以防对任何人都有帮助,在@piro的回答的基础上,我做了一个函数装饰器:

import time
import signal
from functools import wraps


def timeout(timeout_secs: int):
    def wrapper(func):
        @wraps(func)
        def time_limited(*args, **kwargs):
            # Register an handler for the timeout
            def handler(signum, frame):
                raise Exception(f"Timeout for function '{func.__name__}'")

            # Register the signal function handler
            signal.signal(signal.SIGALRM, handler)

            # Define a timeout for your function
            signal.alarm(timeout_secs)

            result = None
            try:
                result = func(*args, **kwargs)
            except Exception as exc:
                raise exc
            finally:
                # disable the signal alarm
                signal.alarm(0)

            return result

        return time_limited

    return wrapper

在一个有20秒超时的函数上使用包装器看起来像这样:

    @timeout(20)
    def my_slow_or_never_ending_function(name):
        while True:
            time.sleep(1)
            print(f"Yet another second passed {name}...")

    try:
        results = my_slow_or_never_ending_function("Yooo!")
    except Exception as e:
        print(f"ERROR: {e}")

在@piro答案的基础上,您可以构建一个contextmanager。这允许非常易读的代码,将在成功运行后禁用警报信号(sets signal.alarm(0))

from contextlib import contextmanager
import signal
import time

@contextmanager
def timeout(duration):
    def timeout_handler(signum, frame):
        raise TimeoutError(f'block timedout after {duration} seconds')
    signal.signal(signal.SIGALRM, timeout_handler)
    signal.alarm(duration)
    try:
        yield
    finally:
        signal.alarm(0)

def sleeper(duration):
    time.sleep(duration)
    print('finished')

使用示例:

In [19]: with timeout(2):
    ...:     sleeper(1)
    ...:     
finished

In [20]: with timeout(2):
    ...:     sleeper(3)
    ...:
