Module: kernel.pendingdeferred

Inheritance diagram for IPython.kernel.pendingdeferred:

Classes to manage pending Deferreds.

A pending deferred is a deferred that may or may not have fired. This module is useful for taking a class whose methods return deferreds and wrapping it to provide API that keeps track of those deferreds for later retrieval. See the tests for examples of its usage.

PendingDeferredManager

class IPython.kernel.pendingdeferred.PendingDeferredManager

Bases: object

A class to track pending deferreds.

To track a pending deferred, the user of this class must first get a deferredID by calling get_next_deferred_id. Then the user calls save_pending_deferred passing that id and the deferred to be tracked. To later retrieve it, the user calls get_pending_deferred passing the id.

__init__()

Manage pending deferreds.

clear_pending_deferreds()

Remove all the deferreds I am tracking.

delete_pending_deferred()

Remove a deferred I am tracking and add a null Errback.

Parameters :
deferredID : str

The id of a deferred that I am tracking.

get_deferred_id()
get_pending_deferred()
quick_has_id()
save_pending_deferred()

Save the result of a deferred for later retrieval.

This works even if the deferred has not fired.

Only callbacks and errbacks applied to d before this method is called will be called no the final result.

IPython.kernel.pendingdeferred.two_phase()

Wrap methods that return a deferred into a two phase process.

This transforms:

foo(arg1, arg2, ...) -> foo(arg1, arg2,...,block=True).

The wrapped method will then return a deferred to a deferred id. This will only work on method of classes that inherit from PendingDeferredManager, as that class provides an API for

block is a boolean to determine if we should use the two phase process or just simply call the wrapped method. At this point block does not have a default and it probably won’t.
