AsyncSpawner 0.1.1

Spawn asyncio coroutines over threads running in multiple processes.

Async Spawner

This package allows you to spawn coroutines in threads running inside processes in order to parallelize async task execution on a multi-core CPU machine. Each worker process in a process pool initializes on start a thread pool and an event loop that is used to run asyncio coroutines thread-safe inside the current process threads. The process and thread management are based on ProcessPoolExecutor and ThreadPoolExecutor, respectively, which are provided by the standard concurrent.futures module. No extra dependencies are required.

Install

The package can be installed easily using pip package manager for Python:

python -m pip install --upgrade AsyncSpawner

Usage

Here is a short example on how to use the async spawner:

import asyncio

from asyncspawner import AsyncSpawner


async def task(s):
    return await asyncio.sleep(s, result=s)


async def main(procs=2, threads=2):
    spawner = AsyncSpawner(pr_max_workers=procs, th_max_workers=threads)
    futures = [spawner.spawn(task, s=i) for i in range(5)]
    results = await asyncio.gather(*futures)
    print(results)


if __name__ == '__main__':
    loop = asyncio.new_event_loop()
    loop.run_until_complete(main())
