Source code for the O'Reilly live online training with Lee Gaines.
We will use a Python3 Docker image to run the code. Assuming you have installed Docker, navigate to the src/threads directory of this repo, then build the image with the following command:
docker build -t py3-threads .
To access the shell, run a container using this command:
docker run -it py3-threads bash
All of the source code will be located in the /src directory in the container. To sync this directory with your working directory when you run the container, use this command:
docker run -it --mount type=bind,source=$$(pwd),target=/src py3-threads bash
If you have make you can use the following command to automate the build and run commands:
make run
- To view the threads as a program is running with
htop:htop->F2->Show custom thread names(tree view is nice, too) - To view the threads as a program is running
ps:ps -elF - Show information about the current thread:
threading.current_thread() - Green threads are scheduled by the Python process, as opposed to a system-level thread scheduled by the OS.
