我正在努力理解Python中的线程。我看过文档和示例,但坦率地说,许多示例过于复杂,我很难理解它们。
如何清楚地显示为多线程划分的任务?

Alex Martelli的回答对我有所帮助。不过,这里有一个我认为更有用的修改版本(至少对我来说)。
更新:可在Python 2和Python 3中使用
try:
# For Python 3
import queue
from urllib.request import urlopen
except:
# For Python 2
import Queue as queue
from urllib2 import urlopen
import threading
worker_data = ['http://google.com', 'http://yahoo.com', 'http://bing.com']
# Load up a queue with your data. This will handle locking
q = queue.Queue()
for url in worker_data:
q.put(url)
# Define a worker function
def worker(url_queue):
queue_full = True
while queue_full:
try:
# Get your data off the queue, and do some work
url = url_queue.get(False)
data = urlopen(url).read()
print(len(data))
except queue.Empty:
queue_full = False
# Create as many threads as you want
thread_count = 5
for i in range(thread_count):
t = threading.Thread(target=worker, args = (q,))
t.start()

以前的解决方案都没有在我的GNU/Linux服务器上使用多个内核(我没有管理员权限)。他们只是在一个核心上跑步。
我使用较低级别的os.fork接口来派生多个进程。这是对我有用的代码:
from os import fork
values = ['different', 'values', 'for', 'threads']
for i in range(len(values)):
p = fork()
if p == 0:
my_function(values[i])
break
借用本文,我们了解了如何在多线程、多处理和异步/异步之间进行选择及其用法。
Python 3有一个新的内置库,以实现并发和并行-concurrent.futures
因此,我将通过一个实验演示如何通过线程池运行四个任务(即.sleep()方法):
from concurrent.futures import ThreadPoolExecutor, as_completed
from time import sleep, time
def concurrent(max_worker):
futures = []
tic = time()
with ThreadPoolExecutor(max_workers=max_worker) as executor:
futures.append(executor.submit(sleep, 2)) # Two seconds sleep
futures.append(executor.submit(sleep, 1))
futures.append(executor.submit(sleep, 7))
futures.append(executor.submit(sleep, 3))
for future in as_completed(futures):
if future.result() is not None:
print(future.result())
print(f'Total elapsed time by {max_worker} workers:', time()-tic)
concurrent(5)
concurrent(4)
concurrent(3)
concurrent(2)
concurrent(1)
输出:
Total elapsed time by 5 workers: 7.007831811904907
Total elapsed time by 4 workers: 7.007944107055664
Total elapsed time by 3 workers: 7.003149509429932
Total elapsed time by 2 workers: 8.004627466201782
Total elapsed time by 1 workers: 13.013478994369507
[注]:
正如您在上面的结果中看到的,最好的情况是这四项任务有3名员工。如果有进程任务而不是I/O绑定或阻塞(多处理而不是线程),则可以将ThreadPoolExecutor更改为ProcessPoolExecutoor。
下面的代码可以运行10个线程同时打印0到99之间的数字:
from threading import Thread
def test():
for i in range(0, 100):
print(i)
thread_list = []
for _ in range(0, 10):
thread = Thread(target=test)
thread_list.append(thread)
for thread in thread_list:
thread.start()
for thread in thread_list:
thread.join()
下面的代码是上述代码循环版本的简写,运行10个线程,同时打印0到99之间的数字:
from threading import Thread
def test():
[print(i) for i in range(0, 100)]
thread_list = [Thread(target=test) for _ in range(0, 10)]
[thread.start() for thread in thread_list]
[thread.join() for thread in thread_list]
结果如下:
...
99
83
97
84
98
99
85
86
87
88
...
与其他提到的一样,由于GIL,CPython只能在I/O等待时使用线程。
如果您想从多个内核中获得CPU绑定任务的好处,请使用多处理:
from multiprocessing import Process
def f(name):
print 'hello', name
if __name__ == '__main__':
p = Process(target=f, args=('bob',))
p.start()
p.join()
大多数文档和教程都使用Python的“线程和队列”模块,对于初学者来说,它们可能会让人不知所措。
也许可以考虑Python 3的concurrent.futures.ThreadPoolExecutor模块。
结合子句和列表理解,这可能是一个真正的魅力。
from concurrent.futures import ThreadPoolExecutor, as_completed
def get_url(url):
# Your actual program here. Using threading.Lock() if necessary
return ""
# List of URLs to fetch
urls = ["url1", "url2"]
with ThreadPoolExecutor(max_workers = 5) as executor:
# Create threads
futures = {executor.submit(get_url, url) for url in urls}
# as_completed() gives you the threads once finished
for f in as_completed(futures):
# Get the results
rs = f.result()
