Sin bloqueo, ejemplo de subprocesos múltiples:
Dado que el bloqueo en la entrada del teclado (ya que los input()
bloques de funciones) con frecuencia no es lo que queremos hacer (con frecuencia nos gustaría seguir haciendo otras cosas), aquí hay un ejemplo multiproceso muy simplificado para demostrar cómo seguir ejecutando su aplicación principal mientras sigue leyendo en las entradas del teclado cada vez que llegan .
Esto funciona creando un subproceso para ejecutar en segundo plano, llamando continuamente input()
y luego pasando cualquier dato que reciba a una cola.
De esta manera, su hilo principal se deja hacer lo que quiera, recibiendo los datos de entrada del teclado del primer hilo siempre que haya algo en la cola.
1. Ejemplo de código Bare Python 3 (sin comentarios):
import threading
import queue
import time
def read_kbd_input(inputQueue):
print('Ready for keyboard input:')
while (True):
input_str = input()
inputQueue.put(input_str)
def main():
EXIT_COMMAND = "exit"
inputQueue = queue.Queue()
inputThread = threading.Thread(target=read_kbd_input, args=(inputQueue,), daemon=True)
inputThread.start()
while (True):
if (inputQueue.qsize() > 0):
input_str = inputQueue.get()
print("input_str = {}".format(input_str))
if (input_str == EXIT_COMMAND):
print("Exiting serial terminal.")
break
# Insert your code here to do whatever you want with the input_str.
# The rest of your program goes here.
time.sleep(0.01)
print("End.")
if (__name__ == '__main__'):
main()
2. El mismo código de Python 3 que el anterior, pero con extensos comentarios explicativos:

# 3. Do your series of queue calls which need to be treated as one big atomic operation, such as calling

Listo para entrada de teclado:
hey
input_str = hey
hola
input_str = hola
7000
input_str = 7000
salir
input_str = salir
Salir del terminal serie.
