Project description

python-scriptlock
==========================

[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/alkivi-sas/python-scriptlock.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/alkivi-sas/python-scriptlock)
[![Requirements Status](https://requires.io/github/alkivi-sas/python-scriptlock/requirements.svg?branch=master)](https://requires.io/github/alkivi-sas/python-scriptlock/requirements/?branch=master)

Lock tool for scripts.

## Package

Example

```python
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.

## Tests

Testing is set up using [pytest](http://pytest.org) and coverage is handled
with the pytest-cov plugin.

Run your tests with ```py.test``` in the root directory.

Coverage is ran by default and is set in the ```pytest.ini``` file.
To see an html output of coverage open ```htmlcov/index.html``` after running the tests.

TODO

## Travis CI

There is a ```.travis.yml``` file that is set up to run your tests for python 2.7
and python 3.2, should you choose to use it.
