tqdm-multiprocess

Using queues, tqdm-multiprocess supports multiple worker processes, each with multiple tqdm progress bars, displaying them cleanly through the main process.

It also redirects logging from the subprocesses to the root logger in the main process.

Currently doesn't support tqdm(iterator), you will need to intialize tqdm with a total and update manually.

Installation

pip install tqdm-multiprocess

Usage

TqdmMultiProcessPool creates a standard python multiprocessing pool with the desired number of processes. Under the hood it uses async_apply with an event loop to monitor a tqdm and logging queue, allowing the worker processes to redirect both their tqdm objects and logging messages to your main process.

As shown below, you create a list of tasks containing their function and a tuple with your parameters. The functions you pass in will need an extra "tqdm_func" argument on the end which you must use to initialize your tqdms. As mentioned above, passing iterators into the tqdm function is currently not supported, so set total=total_steps when setting up your tqdm, and then update the progress manually with the update() method. All other arguments to tqdm should work fine.

Once you have your task list, call the map() method on your pool, passing in the process count, task list and error callback function. The error callback will be trigerred if your task functions return anything evaluating as False (if not task_result in the source code).
