如何在Python中使用线程？

我试图理解Python中的线程。我已经看过了文档和示例，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？

注意：对于Python中的实际并行化，应该使用模块来分叉并行执行的多个进程（由于全局解释器锁，Python线程提供了交错，但实际上它们是串行执行的，而不是并行执行的，并且只有在交错I/O操作时才有用）

但是，如果你只是在寻找交错（或者正在执行I/O操作，尽管全局解释器锁是可并行的），那么模块就是开始的地方。作为一个简单的例子，我们考虑通过将子串求和：

import threading

class SummingThread(threading.Thread):
     def __init__(self,low,high):
         super(SummingThread, self).__init__()
         self.low=low
         self.high=high
         self.total=0

     def run(self):
         for i in range(self.low,self.high):
             self.total+=i


thread1 = SummingThread(0,500000)
thread2 = SummingThread(500000,1000000)
thread1.start() # This actually causes the thread to run
thread2.start()
thread1.join()  # This waits until the thread has completed
thread2.join()
# At this point, both threads have completed
result = thread1.total + thread2.total
print result

---

请注意，上面这是一个非常愚蠢的示例，因为它绝对不进行I/O操作，并且将串行执行，尽管由于全局解释器锁定（增加了上下文切换的开销）。

这里有一个简单的示例：您需要尝试几个备选URL，并返回第一个URL的内容进行响应

import Queue
import threading
import urllib2

# Called by each thread
def get_url(q, url):
    q.put(urllib2.urlopen(url).read())

theurls = ["http://google.com", "http://yahoo.com"]

q = Queue.Queue()

for u in theurls:
    t = threading.Thread(target=get_url, args = (q,u))
    t.daemon = True
    t.start()

s = q.get()
print s

在这种情况下，线程被用作一种简单的优化：每个子线程都在等待URL解析和响应，以将其内容放入队列；每个线程都是一个守护进程（如果主线程结束，则不会保持进程正常运行，这一点更为常见）；主线程启动所有子线程，在队列上执行

get

，等待其中一个执行了

put

，然后发出结果并终止（这将删除可能仍在运行的所有子线程，因为它们是守护进程线程）

---

Python中线程的正确使用总是与I/O操作相关联（因为CPython无论如何都不使用多个内核来运行CPU绑定的任务，所以线程的唯一原因是在等待某些I/O时不会阻塞进程）。顺便说一句，队列几乎总是将工作分配给线程和/或收集工作结果的最佳方式，而且它们本质上是线程安全的，因此它们可以避免您担心锁、条件、事件、信号量和其他线程间协调/通信概念。

与前面提到的其他概念一样，CPython只能使用线程y表示由于的I/O等待

如果您希望从多个内核中受益，以执行CPU限制的任务，请使用：

---

对我来说，线程的最佳示例是监视异步事件

# thread_test.py
import threading
import time

class Monitor(threading.Thread):
    def __init__(self, mon):
        threading.Thread.__init__(self)
        self.mon = mon

    def run(self):
        while True:
            if self.mon[0] == 2:
                print "Mon = 2"
                self.mon[0] = 3;

您可以通过打开会话并执行以下操作来使用此代码：

>>> from thread_test import Monitor
>>> a = [0]
>>> mon = Monitor(a)
>>> mon.start()
>>> a[0] = 2
Mon = 2
>>>a[0] = 2
Mon = 2

等几分钟

>>> a[0] = 2
Mon = 2

---

请注意：线程不需要队列

这是我能想到的最简单的例子，显示了10个进程同时运行

import threading
from random import randint
from time import sleep


def print_number(number):

    # Sleeps a random 1 to 10 seconds
    rand_int_var = randint(1, 10)
    sleep(rand_int_var)
    print "Thread " + str(number) + " slept for " + str(rand_int_var) + " seconds"

thread_list = []

for i in range(1, 10):

    # Instantiates the thread
    # (i) does not make a sequence, so (i,)
    t = threading.Thread(target=print_number, args=(i,))
    # Sticks the thread in a list so that it remains accessible
    thread_list.append(t)

# Starts threads
for thread in thread_list:
    thread.start()

# This blocks the calling thread until the thread whose join() method is called is terminated.
# From http://docs.python.org/2/library/threading.html#thread-objects
for thread in thread_list:
    thread.join()

# Demonstrates that the main process waited for threads to complete
print "Done"

但是，这里有一个我认为更有用的修改版本（至少对我来说）

更新：适用于Python2和Python3

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()

---

我发现这非常有用：创建与内核一样多的线程，并让它们执行（大量）任务（在本例中，调用shell程序）：

---

自从2010年提出这个问题以来，如何使用和使用Python进行简单的多线程处理变得非常简单

下面的代码来自一篇文章/博客文章，您一定要查看它（无从属关系）。我将在下面进行总结-它最终只是几行代码：

from multiprocessing.dummy import Pool as ThreadPool
pool = ThreadPool(4)
results = pool.map(my_function, my_array)

这是的多线程版本：

results = []
for item in my_array:
    results.append(my_function(item))

---

说明

Map是一个很酷的小函数，是将并行性轻松注入Python代码的关键。对于那些不熟悉的人来说，Map是从Lisp等函数语言中提取出来的。它是一个将另一个函数映射到序列的函数

Map为我们处理序列上的迭代，应用函数，并将所有结果存储在末尾一个方便的列表中

---

实施

map函数的并行版本由两个库提供：multiprocessing，以及它鲜为人知但同样奇妙的单步子函数multiprocessing.dummy

multiprocessing.dummy

与多处理模块完全相同（-对CPU密集型任务使用多个进程；对I/O（和期间）使用线程）：

dummy复制了多处理的API，但只不过是线程模块的包装器

以及时间安排的结果：

Single thread:   14.4 seconds
       4 Pool:   3.1 seconds
       8 Pool:   1.4 seconds
      13 Pool:   1.3 seconds

---

传递多个参数（工作原理如下）：

要传递多个数组，请执行以下操作：

results = pool.starmap(function, zip(list_a, list_b))

或传递常数和数组：

results = pool.starmap(function, zip(itertools.repeat(constant), list_a))

如果您使用的是早期版本的Python，则可以通过（0）传递多个参数

（感谢您的有益评论。）

使用全新模块

执行器方法可能对所有以前接触过Java的人来说都很熟悉

---

还有一点需要注意：为了保持宇宙的正常运行，如果你没有将

与
上下文一起使用（这是非常棒的，它可以为你做）
给定一个函数，
f
，请像这样执行它：

import threading
threading.Thread(target=f).start()

将参数传递给
f

threading.Thread(target=f, args=(a,b,c)).start()

下面是一个简单的多线程示例，这将很有帮助。您可以运行它并轻松理解多线程在Python中的工作方式。我使用了一个锁来阻止访问其他线程，直到前面的线程完成它们的工作。通过使用这行代码

tLock=threading.BoundedSemaphore（值=4）

您可以一次允许多个进程，并保留将在以后或在完成以前的进程后运行的其余线程

import threading
import time

#tLock = threading.Lock()
tLock = threading.BoundedSemaphore(value=4)
def timer(name, delay, repeat):
    print  "\r\nTimer: ", name, " Started"
    tLock.acquire()
    print "\r\n", name, " has the acquired the lock"
    while repeat > 0:
        time.sleep(delay)
        print "\r\n", name, ": ", str(time.ctime(time.time()))
        repeat -= 1

    print "\r\n", name, " is releaseing the lock"
    tLock.release()
    print "\r\nTimer: ", name, " Completed"

def Main():
    t1 = threading.Thread(target=timer, args=("Timer1", 2, 5))
    t2 = threading.Thread(target=timer, args=("Timer2", 3, 5))
    t3 = threading.Thread(target=timer, args=("Timer3", 4, 5))
    t4 = threading.Thread(target=timer, args=("Timer4", 5, 5))
    t5 = threading.Thread(target=timer, args=("Timer5", 0.1, 5))

    t1.start()
    t2.start()
    t3.start()
    t4.start()
    t5.start()

    print "\r\nMain Complete"

if __name__ == "__main__":
