Hi, I thought maybe a callback before the worker of a Executor finishes would
be helpful. It would allow the setup and teardown resources (such as file,
databases, connections, ...) across workers. My particular use case is for
closing down requests.Session objects, that currently its very complicated to
cleanup properly. There are many other use cases, a generic format would be
something like the following:
import threading
from concurrent.futures import ThreadPoolExecutor
worker_local = threading.local()
def session_initializer():
# Initialize costly resources for a particular worker
worker_local.resources = ...
def session_deinitializer():
# Deinitialize worker resources carefully
worker_local.resources ...
with ThreadPoolExecutor(initializer=session_initializer,
deinitializer=session_deinitializer) as executor:
executor.submit(task)
...
