A framework that exposes a simple set of APIs enabling multi-process integration with the curses screen painting library
Project description
The mpcurses provides a framework that enables a function to be executed at scale and its execution to be visualized on screen at runtime. It consists of a simple set of APIs that provide an abstraction for multiprocessing and the curses screen painting library. The main features:
Execute a function across one or more concurrent processes
Queue execution to ensure a predefined number of processes are running
Visualize function execution using curses screen
Define a screen layout using a Python dict
Leverage built-in directives for dynamically updating the screen * Keep numeric counts * Update text values * Update text colors * Maintain visual indicators * Update progress bars * Display tables
The framework can be used on any ordinary Python function. The only requirement for enabling function scale and execution visualization is to ensure the function implements logging and a to provide a screen layout definition. The framework takes care of setting up the multiprocessing, configuring the curses screen and the maintaining the thread-safe queues required for communication.
