# idle.py - Run functions on an idle loop or in a separate thread.
#
# Author: Paul McCarthy <pauldmccarthy@gmail.com>
#
"""This module provides functions and classes for running tasks
asynchronously, either in an idle loop, or on a separate thread.
.. note:: The :class:`IdleLoop` functionality in this module is intended to be
run from within a ``wx`` application. However, it will still work
without ``wx``, albeit with slightly modified behaviour.
Idle tasks
----------
.. autosummary::
:nosignatures:
IdleLoop
idle
idleWhen
block
The :class:`IdleLoop` class provides a simple way to run a task on an ``wx``
``EVT_IDLE`` event handler. A single ``IdleLoop`` instance is created when
this module is imported; it can be accessed via the :attr:`idleLoop` attribute,
and via the module-level :func:`idle` and :func:`idleWhen` functions.
The :meth:`IdleLoop.idle` method effectively performs the same job as the
:func:`run` function (described below), but is more suitable for short tasks
which do not warrant running in a separate thread.
Thread tasks
------------
.. autosummary::
:nosignatures:
run
wait
TaskThread
The :func:`run` function simply runs a task in a separate thread. This
doesn't seem like a worthy task to have a function of its own, but the
:func:`run` function additionally provides the ability to schedule another
function to run on the ``wx.MainLoop`` when the original function has
completed (via :func:`idle`). This therefore gives us a simple way to run a
computationally intensitve task off the main GUI thread (preventing the GUI
from locking up), and to perform some clean up/refresh/notification
afterwards.
The :func:`wait` function is given one or more ``Thread`` instances, and a
task to run. It waits until all the threads have finished, and then runs
the task (via :func:`idle`).
The :class:`TaskThread` class is a simple thread which runs a queue of tasks.
Other facilities
----------------
The ``idle`` module also defines the :func:`mutex` decorator, which is
intended to be used to mark the methods of a class as being mutually exclusive.
The ``mutex`` decorator uses the :class:`MutexFactory` class to do its work.

:arg timeout: Optional. If provided, must be provided as a keyword

amount of time passes before the function gets
scheduled to be called on the idle loop, the
function is not called, and is dropped from the
queue.
:arg dropIfQueued: Optional. If provided, must be provided as a keyword
argument. If ``True``, and a task with the given
``name`` is already enqueud, that function is
dropped from the queue, and the new task is
enqueued. Defaults to ``False``. This argument takes
precedence over the ``skipIfQueued`` argument.
:arg skipIfQueued: Optional. If provided, must be provided as a keyword
argument. If ``True``, and a task with the given
``name`` is already enqueud, (or is running), the

:arg alwaysQueue: Optional. If provided, must be provided as a keyword

running, the task is enqueued anyway, under the
assumption that a ``wx.MainLoop`` will be started in
the future. Note that, if ``wx.App`` has not yet
been created, another call to ``idle`` must be made
after the app has been created for the original task
to be executed. If ``wx`` is not available, this
parameter will be ignored, and the task executed
directly.
All other arguments are passed through to the task function.
If a ``wx.App`` is not running, or :meth:`neverQueue` has been set to
``True``, the ``timeout``, ``name``, ``dropIfQueued``,
``skipIfQueued``, and ``alwaysQueue`` arguments are ignored. Instead,
the call will sleep for ``after`` seconds, and then the ``task`` will
be called directly.
.. note:: If the ``after`` argument is used, there is no guarantee that
the task will be executed in the order that it is scheduled.
This is because, if the required time has not elapsed when
the task is popped from the queue, it will be re-queued.
.. note:: If you schedule multiple tasks with the same ``name``, and
you do not use the ``skipIfQueued`` or ``dropIfQueued``
arguments, all of those tasks will be executed, but you will
only be able to query/cancel the most recently enqueued
task.
.. note:: You will run into difficulties if you schedule a function
that expects/accepts its own keyword arguments called
``name``, ``skipIfQueued``, ``dropIfQueued``, ``after``,
``timeout``, or ``alwaysQueue``.
