Fork the single process easily

Basic example
+++++++++++++

.. code-block:: python

    import forklib
    import logging
    import os
    from time import sleep


    logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG)

    def run():
        print(
            "Proceess #{id} has PID: {pid}".format(
                id=forklib.get_id(),
                pid=os.getpid()
            )
        )
        sleep(1)


    def main():
        print("Master proccess has PID: {0}".format(os.getpid()))
        forklib.fork(4, run)



    if __name__ == '__main__':
        main()


This code makes 4 forks. When you try to run it you will see something like this ::

    Master proccess has PID: 39485
    DEBUG:forklib.forking:Starting 4 processes
    Proceess #1 has PID: 39487
    Proceess #0 has PID: 39486
    Proceess #2 has PID: 39488
    Proceess #3 has PID: 39489
    DEBUG:forklib.forking:Child with PID: 39487 Number: 1 exited normally
    DEBUG:forklib.forking:Child with PID: 39489 Number: 3 exited normally
    DEBUG:forklib.forking:Child with PID: 39488 Number: 2 exited normally
    DEBUG:forklib.forking:Child with PID: 39486 Number: 0 exited normally


Forkme will be control forks. When subprocess will be killed or will exit with
non-zero code it will be restarted immediately. e.g.::

    Master proccess has PID: 7579
    INFO:forklib:Starting 4 processes
    Proceess #0 has PID: 7580
    Proceess #1 has PID: 7581
    Proceess #2 has PID: 7582
    Proceess #3 has PID: 7583
    WARNING:forklib:Child with PID: 7580 Number: 0 killed by signal 9, restarting
    Proceess #0 has PID: 7584


``async_callback`` example
++++++++++++++++++++++++++

.. code-block:: python

    import asyncio
    import forklib
    import logging
    import os
    from time import sleep


    logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG)

    def run():
        print(
            "Proceess #{id} has PID: {pid}".format(
                id=forklib.get_id(),
                pid=os.getpid()
            )
        )
        sleep(1)

    async def amain():
        await asyncio.sleep(0.5)
        print("Async callback finished")


    def main():
        print("Master proccess has PID: {0}".format(os.getpid()))

        forklib.fork(
            4, run,
            async_callback=amain,
            # Wait all incomplete async tasks, otherwise cancel (default)
            wait_async_callback = True,
        )



    if __name__ == '__main__':
        main()


``thread_callback`` example
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++

.. code-block:: python

   import asyncio
   import logging
   import os
   from time import sleep
   from threading import Event

   import forklib


   logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG)


   def run():
       print(
           "Proceess #{id} has PID: {pid}".format(
               id=forklib.get_id(),
               pid=os.getpid(),
           ),
       )
       sleep(3)


   exit_event = Event()


   def thread_callback():
       while not exit_event.is_set():
           sleep(0.5)
           print("Thread callback making great stuff")
       print("Thread callback finished")


   async def async_callback():
       await asyncio.sleep(5)
       print("Async callback finished")


   def main():
       print("Master proccess has PID: {0}".format(os.getpid()))
       forklib.fork(
           4, run,
           thread_callback=thread_callback,

           # Wait theread_callback, otherwise exit (default)
           # Note: You have to be careful when using this option.
           # Thread cancellation is impossible in the general case and you must
           # implement your own way of thread exit notification for example
           # like following one using exit_callback and threading.Event
           wait_thread_callback=True,

           # Notifying thread_callback about exit.
           exit_callback=exit_event.set,

           async_callback=async_callback,
           # Wait async_callback, otherwise cancel incomplete tasks (default)
           wait_async_callback=True
       )


   if __name__ == "__main__":
       main()


Parallel iteration
++++++++++++++++++

You can load the large array of elements on the memory and process it in
multiple processes. After forking the memory will not be copied, instead
of the copy-on-write mechanism will be used.

.. code-block:: python

   from forklib import fork_map
   import logging


   logging.basicConfig(level=logging.INFO)


   def map_func(item):
       return item + 1


   def main():
       for item in fork_map(map_func, range(20000), workers=10):
           print(item)


   if __name__ == '__main__':
       main()
