-Queues
-------
-
-Queue
-^^^^^
-
-.. class:: Queue(maxsize=0, \*, loop=None)
-
- A queue, useful for coordinating producer and consumer coroutines.
-
- If *maxsize* is less than or equal to zero, the queue size is infinite. If
- it is an integer greater than ``0``, then ``yield from put()`` will block
- when the queue reaches *maxsize*, until an item is removed by :meth:`get`.
-
- Unlike the standard library :mod:`queue`, you can reliably know this Queue's
- size with :meth:`qsize`, since your single-threaded asyncio application won't
- be interrupted between calling :meth:`qsize` and doing an operation on the
- Queue.
-
- .. versionchanged:: 3.4.3
- New :meth:`join` and :meth:`task_done` methods.
-
- .. method:: empty()
-
- Return ``True`` if the queue is empty, ``False`` otherwise.
-
- .. method:: full()
-
- Return ``True`` if there are :attr:`maxsize` items in the queue.
-
- .. note::
-
- If the Queue was initialized with ``maxsize=0`` (the default), then
- :meth:`full()` is never ``True``.
-
- .. coroutinemethod:: get()
-
- Remove and return an item from the queue. If queue is empty, wait until
- an item is available.
-
- This method is a :ref:`coroutine <coroutine>`.
-
- .. seealso::
-
- The :meth:`empty` method.
-
- .. method:: get_nowait()
-
- Remove and return an item from the queue.
-
- Return an item if one is immediately available, else raise
- :exc:`QueueEmpty`.
-
- .. coroutinemethod:: join()
-
- Block until all items in the queue have been gotten and processed.
-
- The count of unfinished tasks goes up whenever an item is added to the
- queue. The count goes down whenever a consumer thread calls
- :meth:`task_done` to indicate that the item was retrieved and all work on
- it is complete. When the count of unfinished tasks drops to zero,
- :meth:`join` unblocks.
-
- This method is a :ref:`coroutine <coroutine>`.
-
- .. versionadded:: 3.4.3
-
- .. coroutinemethod:: put(item)
-
- Put an item into the queue. If the queue is full, wait until a free slot
- is available before adding item.
-
- This method is a :ref:`coroutine <coroutine>`.
-
- .. seealso::
-
- The :meth:`full` method.
-
- .. method:: put_nowait(item)
-
- Put an item into the queue without blocking.
-
- If no free slot is immediately available, raise :exc:`QueueFull`.
-
- .. method:: qsize()
-
- Number of items in the queue.
-
- .. method:: task_done()
-
- Indicate that a formerly enqueued task is complete.
-
- Used by queue consumers. For each :meth:`~Queue.get` used to fetch a task, a
- subsequent call to :meth:`task_done` tells the queue that the processing
- on the task is complete.
-
- If a :meth:`join` is currently blocking, it will resume when all items
- have been processed (meaning that a :meth:`task_done` call was received
- for every item that had been :meth:`~Queue.put` into the queue).
-
- Raises :exc:`ValueError` if called more times than there were items
- placed in the queue.
-
- .. versionadded:: 3.4.3
-
- .. attribute:: maxsize
-
- Number of items allowed in the queue.
-
-
-PriorityQueue
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-.. class:: PriorityQueue
-
- A subclass of :class:`Queue`; retrieves entries in priority order (lowest
- first).
-
- Entries are typically tuples of the form: (priority number, data).
-
-
-LifoQueue
-^^^^^^^^^
-
-.. class:: LifoQueue
-
- A subclass of :class:`Queue` that retrieves most recently added entries
- first.
-
-
-JoinableQueue
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-.. class:: JoinableQueue
-
- Deprecated alias for :class:`Queue`.
-
- .. deprecated:: 3.4.3
-
-
-Exceptions
-^^^^^^^^^^
-
-.. exception:: QueueEmpty
-
- Exception raised when the :meth:`~Queue.get_nowait` method is called on a
- :class:`Queue` object which is empty.
-
-
-.. exception:: QueueFull
-
- Exception raised when the :meth:`~Queue.put_nowait` method is called on a
- :class:`Queue` object which is full.
