DEMONSTRATION
-------------

Just write your own callback functions using the library, then run it and collect the result details:

```bash
$ python3 main.py

Worker Dispatcher Configutation:
- Local CPU core: 10
- Tasks Count: 100
- Runtime: Unlimited
- Dispatch Mode: Fixed Workers (Default)
- Workers Info:
└ Worker Type: Processing
└ Number of Workers : 10
└ Max Worker: 10

--- Start to dispatch workers at 2024-06-14T17:46:30.996685+08:00 ---

...(User-defined output)...

--- End of worker dispatch at 2024-06-14T17:46:41.420888+08:00---

Spend Time: 10.424203 sec
Completed Tasks Count: 100
Uncompleted Tasks Count: 0
Undispatched Tasks Count: 0
```

Use 20 theads concurrently to dispatch tasks for HTTP reqeusts

```python
import worker_dispatcher
import requests

def each_task(id: int, config, task, log):
response = requests.get(config['my_endpoint'] + task)
return response

responses = worker_dispatcher.start({
'task': {
'list': ['ORD_AH001', 'ORD_KL502', '...' , 'ORD_GR393'],
'callback': each_task,
'config': {
'my_endpoint': 'https://your.name/order-handler/'
},
},
'worker': {
'number': 20,
}
})
```

Utilizes all CPU cores on the machine to compute tasks.

```python
import worker_dispatcher

def each_task(id: int, config, task, log):
result = sum(id * i for i in range(10**9))
return result

if __name__ == '__main__':
results = worker_dispatcher.start({
'task': {
'list': 10,
'callback': each_task,
},
'worker': {
'use_processing': True
}
})
```

---

INTRODUCTION
------------

This library helps to efficiently consume tasks by using multiple threading or processing and returns all results jointly.

---

INSTALLATION
------------

To install the current release:

```shell
$ pip install worker-dispatcher
```

---

USAGE
-----

By calling the `start()` method with the configuration parameters, the package will begin dispatching tasks while managing threading or processing based on the provided settings. Once the tasks are completed, the package will return all the results.

An example configuration setting with all options is as follows:

```python
import worker_dispatcher

results = worker_dispatcher.start({
'debug': False,
'task': {
'list': [], # Support list and integer. Integer represent the number of tasks to be generated.
'callback': callback_sample,
'config': {},
'result_callback': False
},
'worker': {
'number': 8,
'frequency_mode': { # Changing from assigning tasks to a fixed number of workers once, to assigning tasks and workers frequently.
'enabled': False,
'interval': 1, # The second(s) of interval
'accumulated_workers': 0, # Accumulate the number of workers for each interval for next dispatch.
'max_workers': None, # limit the maximum number of workers to prevent system exhaustion.
},
'use_processing': False, # To break GIL, workers will be based on processing pool.
'parallel_processing': { # To break GIL and require a number of workers greater than the number of CPU cores.
'enabled': False, # `worker.use_processing` setting will be ignored when enabled. The actual number of workers will be adjusted to a multiple of the CPU core count.
'use_queue': False, # Enable a task queue to specify the number of workers without adjustment, though the maximum may be limited by your device.
},
},
'runtime': None, # Dispatcher max runtime in seconds
'verbose': True
})
```

### Options

|Option |Type |Deafult |Description|
|:-- |:-- |:-- |:-- |
|debug |bool |False |Debug mode |
|task.list |multitype|list |The tasks for dispatching to each worker. *
- List: Each value will be passed as a parameter to your callback function.
- Integer: The number of tasks to be generated.|
|[task.callback](#taskcallback) |callable |(sample) |The callback function called by each worker runs|
|task.config |multitype|list |The custom variable to be passed to the callback function|
|[task.result_callback](#taskresult_callback) |callable |Null |The callback function called when each task processes the result|
|worker.number |int |(auto) |The number of workers to fork.
(The default value is the number of local CPU cores)|
|worker.frequency_mode.enabled |bool |False |Changing from assigning tasks to a fixed number of workers once, to assigning tasks and workers frequently.|
|worker.frequency_mode.interval |float |1 |The second(s) of interval.|
|worker.frequency_mode.accumulated_workers |int |0 |Accumulate the number of workers for each interval for next dispatch.|
|worker.frequency_mode.max_workers |int |None |limit the maximum number of workers to prevent system exhaustion.|
|worker.use_processing |boolean |False |To break GIL, workers will be based on processing pool.|
|worker.parallel_processing.enabled |bool |False |`worker.use_processing` setting will be ignored when enabled. The actual number of workers will be adjusted to a multiple of the CPU core count.|
|worker.parallel_processing.use_queue |bool |False |Enable the use of a task queue instead of task dispatch, which allows specifying the number of workers but may be limited by your device.|
|runtime |float |None |Dispatcher max runtime in seconds.|
|verbose |bool |True |Enables or disables verbose mode for detailed output.|

#### task.callback

The callback function called by each worker runs

```python
callback_function (id: int, config, task, log: dict)
```

|Argument |Type |Deafult |Description|
|:-- |:-- |:-- |:-- |
|id |int |(auto) |The sequence number generated by each task starting from 1|
|config |multitype|{} |The custom variable to be passed to the callback function|
|task |multitype|(custom) |Each value from the `task.list`|
|log |dict |{} |The log from each task written by this callback function.|

#### task.result_callback

The callback function called when each task processes the result

```python
result_callback_function (id: int, config, result, log: dict)
```

|Argument |Type |Deafult |Description|
|:-- |:-- |:-- |:-- |
|id |int |(auto) |The sequence number generated by each task starting from 1|
|config |multitype|{} |The custom variable to be passed to the callback function|
|result |multitype|(custom) |Each value returned back from `task.callback`|
|log |dict |(auto) |Reference: [get_logs()](#get_logs)|

### Other Methods

- #### get_results()
Get all results in list type after completing `start()`

- #### get_logs()
Get all logs in list type after completing `start()`

Each log is of type dict, containing the results of every task processed by the worker:
- task_id
- started_at
- ended_at
- duration
- result

- #### get_result_info()
Get a dict with the whole spending time and started/ended timestamps after completing `start()`

- #### get_tps()
Get TPS report in dict type after completing `start()` or by passing a list data.
```python
def get_tps(logs: dict=None, debug: bool=False, interval: float=0, reverse_interval: bool = False, display_intervals: bool = False) -> dict:
```
The log dict matches the format of the [get_logs()](#get_logs) and refers to it by default. Each `result` of a log will be considered valid if it meets one of the following conditions:
- It is a `requests.Response` object with a status code of 200
- It is a valid value other than the aforementioned object

### Scenarios

#### Stress Test

Perform a stress test scenario with 10 requests per second.

```python
import worker_dispatcher, requests

def each_task(id, config, task, log):
response = None
try:
response = requests.get(config['my_endpoint'], timeout=(5, 10))
except requests.exceptions.RequestException as e:
print("An error occurred:", e)
return response

responses = worker_dispatcher.start({
'task': {
'list': 5000,
'callback': each_task,
'config': {
'my_endpoint': 'https://your.name/api'
},
},
'worker': {
'number': 10,
'frequency_mode': {
'enabled': True,
'interval': 1,
},
}
})

print(worker_dispatcher.get_logs())
print(worker_dispatcher.get_tps())
```
