scriptlock 1.0.5

Lock script to allow only one instance

Lock tool for scripts.

Package

Example

import time
import atexit

from scriptlock import Lock

lock = Lock()
atexit.register(lock.cleanup)  # Needed to clean the lock correctly

time.sleep(100)

Launch another one and see what happend

Workaround

The use of atexit is necessary to correctly clean the lock. We tried to use the del module but it caused issues with the logger.
