python——有一种线程池叫做自己写的线程池
python的线程一直被称为鸡肋,所以它也没有亲生的线程池,但是竟然被我发现了野生的线程池,简直不能更幸运~~~于是,我开始啃源码,实在是虐心,在啃源码的过程中,我简略的了解了python线程的相关知识,感觉还是很有趣的,于是写博客困难症患者一夜之间化身写作小能手,完成了一系列线程相关的博客,然后恍然发现,python的多线程是一个鸡肋哎。。。这里换来了同事们的白眼若干→_→。嘻嘻,但是鸡肋归鸡肋,看懂了一篇源码给我带来的收获和成就感还是不能小视,所以还是分享下~~~
别人的线程池
首先介绍别人写的线程池模块,野生threadpool,直接到pypi上去搜,或者pip安装,都可以get到。这里还是先贴上来:
1 # -*- coding: UTF-8 -*- 2 """Easy to use object-oriented thread pool framework. 3 4 A thread pool is an object that maintains a pool of worker threads to perform 5 time consuming operations in parallel. It assigns jobs to the threads 6 by putting them in a work request queue, where they are picked up by the 7 next available thread. This then performs the requested operation in the 8 background and puts the results in another queue. 9 10 The thread pool object can then collect the results from all threads from 11 this queue as soon as they become available or after all threads have 12 finished their work. It's also possible, to define callbacks to handle 13 each result as it comes in. 14 15 The basic concept and some code was taken from the book "Python in a Nutshell, 16 2nd edition" by Alex Martelli, O'Reilly 2006, ISBN 0-596-10046-9, from section 17 14.5 "Threaded Program Architecture". I wrapped the main program logic in the 18 ThreadPool class, added the WorkRequest class and the callback system and 19 tweaked the code here and there. Kudos also to Florent Aide for the exception 20 handling mechanism. 21 22 Basic usage:: 23 24 >>> pool = ThreadPool(poolsize) 25 >>> requests = makeRequests(some_callable, list_of_args, callback) 26 >>> [pool.putRequest(req) for req in requests] 27 >>> pool.wait() 28 29 See the end of the module code for a brief, annotated usage example. 30 31 Website : http://chrisarndt.de/projects/threadpool/ 32 33 """ 34 __docformat__ = "restructuredtext en" 35 36 __all__ = [ 37 'makeRequests', 38 'NoResultsPending', 39 'NoWorkersAvailable', 40 'ThreadPool', 41 'WorkRequest', 42 'WorkerThread' 43 ] 44 45 __author__ = "Christopher Arndt" 46 __version__ = '1.3.2' 47 __license__ = "MIT license" 48 49 50 # standard library modules 51 import sys 52 import threading 53 import traceback 54 55 try: 56 import Queue # Python 2 57 except ImportError: 58 import queue as Queue # Python 3 59 60 61 # exceptions 62 class NoResultsPending(Exception): 63 """All work requests have been processed.""" 64 pass 65 66 class NoWorkersAvailable(Exception): 67 """No worker threads available to process remaining requests.""" 68 pass 69 70 71 # internal module helper functions 72 def _handle_thread_exception(request, exc_info): 73 """Default exception handler callback function. 74 75 This just prints the exception info via ``traceback.print_exception``. 76 77 """ 78 traceback.print_exception(*exc_info) 79 80 81 # utility functions 82 def makeRequests(callable_, args_list, callback=None, 83 exc_callback=_handle_thread_exception): 84 """Create several work requests for same callable with different arguments. 85 86 Convenience function for creating several work requests for the same 87 callable where each invocation of the callable receives different values 88 for its arguments. 89 90 ``args_list`` contains the parameters for each invocation of callable. 91 Each item in ``args_list`` should be either a 2-item tuple of the list of 92 positional arguments and a dictionary of keyword arguments or a single, 93 non-tuple argument. 94 95 See docstring for ``WorkRequest`` for info on ``callback`` and 96 ``exc_callback``. 97 98 """ 99 requests = [] 100 for item in args_list: 101 if isinstance(item, tuple): 102 requests.append( 103 WorkRequest(callable_, item[0], item[1], callback=callback, 104 exc_callback=exc_callback) 105 ) 106 else: 107 requests.append( 108 WorkRequest(callable_, [item], None, callback=callback, 109 exc_callback=exc_callback) 110 ) 111 return requests 112 113 114 # classes 115 class WorkerThread(threading.Thread): 116 """Background thread connected to the requests/results queues. 117 118 A worker thread sits in the background and picks up work requests from 119 one queue and puts the results in another until it is dismissed. 120 121 """ 122 123 def __init__(self, requests_queue, results_queue, poll_timeout=5, **kwds): 124 """Set up thread in daemonic mode and start it immediatedly. 125 126 ``requests_queue`` and ``results_queue`` are instances of 127 ``Queue.Queue`` passed by the ``ThreadPool`` class when it creates a 128 new worker thread. 129 130 """ 131 threading.Thread.__init__(self, **kwds) 132 self.setDaemon(1) 133 self._requests_queue = requests_queue 134 self._results_queue = results_queue 135 self._poll_timeout = poll_timeout 136 self._dismissed = threading.Event() 137 self.start() 138 139 def run(self): 140 """Repeatedly process the job queue until told to exit.""" 141 while True: 142 if self._dismissed.isSet(): 143 # we are dismissed, break out of loop 144 break 145 # get next work request.

首先我们来看这个线程池的大致原理。在初始化中,它会根据我们的需求,启动相应数量的线程,这些线程是初始化好的,一直到程序结束,不会停止,它们从任务队列中获取任务,在没有任务的时候就阻塞,他们当我们有任务的时候,对任务进行初始化,放入任务队列,拿到任务的线程结束了自己的阻塞人生,欢欢喜喜的拿回去执行,并在执行完毕之后,将结果放入结果队列,继续到任务队列中取任务,如果没有任务就进入阻塞状态。看了一整天的源码竟让我三两句话解释清楚了,我到底是表达能力强还是理解能力差!!!我想静静~~~附上类图如下:
我的线程池
下面就来介绍我写的线程池了,上面的线程池有一个问题,那就是一开始创建了多少个线程,这些线程就一直存在内存中,即使没有工作,也不会销毁。于是我有了一个想法,就像其他语言中的线程池一样,写一个拥有最大线程数和最小线程数限制的线程池。
程序启动之初只将最小线程数的线程放在池中,并将线程设置为阻塞状态,用守护线程来查看任务队列,当任务队列中有任务时,则停止线程的阻塞状态,让它们到队列中去获取任务,执行,如果需要返回结果,则将结果返回结果队列。当任务很多,线程池中没有闲置的线程且当前线程数小于线程池最大线程数时,将创建新的线程(这里使用了yield)来接收新的任务,线程执行完毕后,则回到阻塞状态,长期闲置的线程会自动销毁,但池中线程永远不小于在最小线程数。当最小线程数和最大线程数相等的时候,内部就基本和野生线程相同啦~~~
在参考了野生threadpool模块之后,我也学着继承原生的threading.Thread类,并重写了run方法,了解了给一个线程注入新方法的过程。并用到了Event方法和yield。如果不要返回值的话,我想效率还是很高的。尽管我在返回值方面还做了优化,哎~~~

这里安利下我男神,哈哈哈~武sir的方法和上面的例子中不同的是,自定义了线程的start方法,当启动线程的时候才初始化线程池,并根据线程池定义的数量和任务数量取min,而不是先开启定义的线程数等待命令,在一定程度上避免了空线程对内存的消耗。
with知识点
这里要介绍一个知识点。我们在做上下文管理的时候,用到过with。
我们如何自定义一个with方法呢?
如此一来,我们便可以实现对线程状态的监控和管理了。将正在运行中的线程,加入到一个列表中,并使用yield返回,当线程执行完之后,再从这个列表中移除,就可以知道哪些线程是正在运行的啦。
