thread_level_path_lock
- dreadlocks.thread_level_path_lock(path: str, shared: bool = False, blocking: bool = True, reentrant: bool = False)[source]
Locks a key at the thread-level.
- Parameters:
path – The path to lock. The path is normalized so that the underlying lock can be keyed.
shared – Whether the lock is shared. If not shared, the lock is exclusive. One can have either no locks, a single exclusive lock, or any positive number of shared locks on the same resource at any given time.
blocking – Whether lock acquisition is blocking. If True, will raise an error if a lock cannot be acquired immediately. Otherwise, will block until the lock is acquired.
reentrant – Whether lock acquisition is reentrant. If True, allows to lock recursively. Otherwise, locking recursively results in a dead-lock.
