Parallel execution
==========================
*I am trying to execute 50 items every 10 seconds, but from the my logs it says it executes every item in 10 second schedule serially, is there a work around?*
By default, schedule executes all jobs serially. The reasoning behind this is that it would be difficult to find a model for parallel execution that makes everyone happy.
You can work around this limitation by running each of the jobs in its own thread:
.. code-block:: python
import threading
import time
import schedule
def job():
print("I'm running on thread %s" % threading.current_thread())
def run_threaded(job_func):
job_thread = threading.Thread(target=job_func)
job_thread.start()
schedule.every(10).seconds.do(run_threaded, job)
schedule.every(10).seconds.do(run_threaded, job)
schedule.every(10).seconds.do(run_threaded, job)
schedule.every(10).seconds.do(run_threaded, job)
schedule.every(10).seconds.do(run_threaded, job)
while 1:
schedule.run_pending()
time.sleep(1)
If you want tighter control on the number of threads use a shared jobqueue and one or more worker threads:
.. code-block:: python
import time
import threading
import schedule
import queue
def job():
print("I'm working")
def worker_main():
while 1:
job_func = jobqueue.get()
job_func()
jobqueue.task_done()
jobqueue = queue.Queue()
schedule.every(10).seconds.do(jobqueue.put, job)
schedule.every(10).seconds.do(jobqueue.put, job)
schedule.every(10).seconds.do(jobqueue.put, job)
schedule.every(10).seconds.do(jobqueue.put, job)
schedule.every(10).seconds.do(jobqueue.put, job)
worker_thread = threading.Thread(target=worker_main)
worker_thread.start()
while 1:
schedule.run_pending()
time.sleep(1)
This model also makes sense for a distributed application where the workers are separate processes that receive jobs from a distributed work queue. I like using beanstalkd with the beanstalkc Python library.
