Note: This package is **deprecated**. It is highly preferred that instead of
|
|
using this code base that instead `fasteners`_ or `oslo.concurrency`_ is
|
|
used instead. For any questions or comments or further help needed
|
|
please email `openstack-dev`_ and prefix your email subject
|
|
with ``[oslo][pylockfile]`` (for a faster response).
|
|
|
|
The lockfile package exports a LockFile class which provides a simple API for
|
|
locking files. Unlike the Windows msvcrt.locking function, the fcntl.lockf
|
|
and flock functions, and the deprecated posixfile module, the API is
|
|
identical across both Unix (including Linux and Mac) and Windows platforms.
|
|
The lock mechanism relies on the atomic nature of the link (on Unix) and
|
|
mkdir (on Windows) system calls. An implementation based on SQLite is also
|
|
provided, more as a demonstration of the possibilities it provides than as
|
|
production-quality code.
|
|
|
|
Note: In version 0.9 the API changed in two significant ways:
|
|
|
|
* It changed from a module defining several classes to a package containing
|
|
several modules, each defining a single class.
|
|
|
|
* Where classes had been named SomethingFileLock before the last two words
|
|
have been reversed, so that class is now SomethingLockFile.
|
|
|
|
The previous module-level definitions of LinkFileLock, MkdirFileLock and
|
|
SQLiteFileLock will be retained until the 1.0 release.
