"""PooledDB - pooling for DB-API 2 connections.
Implements a pool of steady, thread-safe cached connections
to a database which are transparently reused,
using an arbitrary DB-API 2 compliant database interface module.
This should result in a speedup for persistent applications such as the
application server of "Webware for Python," without loss of robustness.
Robustness is provided by using "hardened" SteadyDB connections.
Even if the underlying database is restarted and all connections
are lost, they will be automatically and transparently reopened.
However, since you don't want this to happen in the middle of a database
transaction, you must explicitly start transactions with the begin()
method so that SteadyDB knows that the underlying connection shall not
be replaced and errors passed on until the transaction is completed.
Measures are taken to make the pool of connections thread-safe.
If the underlying DB-API module is thread-safe at the connection level,
the requested connections may be shared with other threads by default,
but you can also request dedicated connections in case you need them.
For the Python DB-API 2 specification, see:
https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0249/
For information on Webware for Python, see:
https://cito.github.io/w4py/
Usage:
First you need to set up the database connection pool by creating
an instance of PooledDB, passing the following parameters:
creator: either an arbitrary function returning new DB-API 2
connection objects or a DB-API 2 compliant database module
mincached: the initial number of idle connections in the pool
(the default of 0 means no connections are made at startup)
maxcached: the maximum number of idle connections in the pool
(the default value of 0 or None means unlimited pool size)
maxshared: maximum number of shared connections allowed
(the default value of 0 or None means all connections are dedicated)
When this maximum number is reached, connections are
shared if they have been requested as shareable.
maxconnections: maximum number of connections generally allowed
(the default value of 0 or None means any number of connections)
blocking: determines behavior when exceeding the maximum
(if this is set to true, block and wait until the number of
connections decreases, but by default an error will be reported)
maxusage: maximum number of reuses of a single connection
(the default of 0 or None means unlimited reuse)
When this maximum usage number of the connection is reached,
the connection is automatically reset (closed and reopened).
setsession: an optional list of SQL commands that may serve to
prepare the session, e.g. ["set datestyle to german", ...]
reset: how connections should be reset when returned to the pool
(False or None to rollback transcations started with begin(),
the default value True always issues a rollback for safety's sake)
failures: an optional exception class or a tuple of exception classes
for which the connection failover mechanism shall be applied,
if the default (OperationalError, InternalError) is not adequate
ping: an optional flag controlling when connections are checked
with the ping() method if such a method is available
(0 = None = never, 1 = default = whenever fetched from the pool,
2 = when a cursor is created, 4 = when a query is executed,
7 = always, and all other bit combinations of these values)
The creator function or the connect function of the DB-API 2 compliant
database module specified as the creator will receive any additional
parameters such as the host, database, user, password etc. You may
choose some or all of these parameters in your own creator function,
allowing for sophisticated failover and load-balancing mechanisms.
For instance, if you are using pgdb as your DB-API 2 database module and
want a pool of at least five connections to your local database 'mydb':
import pgdb # import used DB-API 2 module
from DBUtils.PooledDB import PooledDB
pool = PooledDB(pgdb, 5, database='mydb')
Once you have set up the connection pool you can request
database connections from that pool:
db = pool.connection()
You can use these connections just as if they were ordinary
DB-API 2 connections. Actually what you get is the hardened
SteadyDB version of the underlying DB-API 2 connection.
Please note that the connection may be shared with other threads
by default if you set a non-zero maxshared parameter and the DB-API 2
module allows this. If you want to have a dedicated connection, use:
db = pool.connection(shareable=False)
You can also use this to get a dedicated connection:
db = pool.dedicated_connection()
If you don't need it any more, you should immediately return it to the
pool with db.close(). You can get another connection in the same way.
Warning: In a threaded environment, never do the following:
pool.connection().cursor().execute(...)
This would release the connection too early for reuse which may be
fatal if the connections are not thread-safe. Make sure that the
connection object stays alive as long as you are using it, like that:
db = pool.connection()
cur = db.cursor()
cur.execute(...)
res = cur.fetchone()
cur.close() # or del cur
db.close() # or del db
Note that you need to explicitly start transactions by calling the
begin() method. This ensures that the connection will not be shared
with other threads, that the transparent reopening will be suspended
until the end of the transaction, and that the connection will be rolled
back before being given back to the connection pool.
Ideas for improvement:
* Add a thread for monitoring, restarting (or closing) bad or expired
connections (similar to DBConnectionPool/ResourcePool by Warren Smith).
* Optionally log usage, bad connections and exceeding of limits.
