Overview
--------

``persist-queue`` implements file-based and SQLite3-based persistent queues for Python. 
It provides thread-safe, disk-based queue implementations that survive process crashes 
and restarts.

By default, *persist-queue* use *pickle* object serialization module to support object instances.
Most built-in type, like `int`, `dict`, `list` are able to be persisted by `persist-queue` directly, to support customized objects,
please refer to `Pickling and unpickling extension types(Python2) <https://docs.python.org/2/library/pickle.html#pickling-and-unpickling-normal-class-instances>`_
and `Pickling Class Instances(Python3) <https://docs.python.org/3/library/pickle.html#pickling-class-instances>`_

This project is based on the achievements of `python-pqueue <https://github.com/balena/python-pqueue>`_
and `queuelib <https://github.com/scrapy/queuelib>`_

Key Features
^^^^^^^^^^^^

* **Disk-based**: Each queued item is stored on disk to survive crashes
* **Thread-safe**: Supports multi-threaded producers and consumers
* **Recoverable**: Items can be read after process restart
* **Green-compatible**: Works with ``greenlet`` or ``eventlet`` environments
* **Multiple serialization**: Supports pickle (default), msgpack, cbor, and json
* **Async support**: Provides async versions of all queue types (v1.1.0+)

Supported Queue Types
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

**File-based Queues:**

* ``Queue`` - Basic file-based FIFO queue
* ``AsyncQueue`` - Async file-based queue (v1.1.0+)

**SQLite-based Queues:**

* ``SQLiteQueue`` / ``FIFOSQLiteQueue`` - FIFO SQLite queue
* ``FILOSQLiteQueue`` - FILO SQLite queue
* ``UniqueQ`` - Unique items only queue
* ``PriorityQueue`` - Priority-based queue
* ``SQLiteAckQueue`` - Acknowledgment-based queue
* ``AsyncSQLiteQueue`` - Async SQLite queue (v1.1.0+)

**Other:**

* ``PDict`` - Persistent dictionary
* ``MySQLQueue`` - MySQL-based queue (requires extra dependencies)

.. code-block:: python

    >>> from persistqueue import PDict
    >>> q = PDict("testpath", "testname")
    >>> q['key1'] = 123
    >>> q['key2'] = 321
    >>> q['key1']
    123
    >>> len(q)
    2
    >>> del q['key1']
    >>> q['key1']
    KeyError: 'Key: key1 not exists.'

Multi-threading Usage
---------------------

SQLite3-based Queue
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

.. code-block:: python

    from persistqueue import FIFOSQLiteQueue
    from threading import Thread

    q = FIFOSQLiteQueue(path="./test", multithreading=True)

    def worker():
        while True:
            item = q.get()
            do_work(item)

    for i in range(num_worker_threads):
         t = Thread(target=worker)
         t.daemon = True
         t.start()

    for item in source():
        q.put(item)

    q.join()  # Block until all tasks are done

File-based Queue
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

.. code-block:: python

    from persistqueue import Queue
    from threading import Thread

    q = Queue()

    def worker():
        while True:
            item = q.get()
            do_work(item)
            q.task_done()

    for i in range(num_worker_threads):
         t = Thread(target=worker)
         t.daemon = True
         t.start()

    for item in source():
        q.put(item)

    q.join()  # Block until all tasks are done

MySQL Queue
^^^^^^^^^^^

.. code-block:: python

    from persistqueue import MySQLQueue
    from threading import Thread

    q = MySQLQueue(
        host='localhost',
        port=3306,
        user='username',
        password='password',
        database='testdb',
        table_name='my_queue'
    )

    def worker():
        while True:
            item = q.get()
            do_work(item)
            q.task_done()

    for i in range(num_worker_threads):
         t = Thread(target=worker)
         t.daemon = True
         t.start()

    for item in source():
        q.put(item)

    q.join()  # Block until all tasks are done

Serialization Options
---------------------

persist-queue supports multiple serialization protocols:

.. code-block:: python

    >>> from persistqueue import Queue
    >>> from persistqueue import serializers
    
    # Pickle (default)
    >>> q = Queue('mypath', serializer=serializers.pickle)
    
    # MessagePack
    >>> q = Queue('mypath', serializer=serializers.msgpack)
    
    # CBOR
    >>> q = Queue('mypath', serializer=serializers.cbor2)
    
    # JSON
    >>> q = Queue('mypath', serializer=serializers.json)

Performance
-----------

Benchmark Results (1000 items)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

**Windows (Windows 10, SATA3 SSD, 16GB RAM)**

+---------------+---------+-------------------------+----------------------------+
|               | Write   | Write/Read(1 task_done) | Write/Read(many task_done) |
+---------------+---------+-------------------------+----------------------------+
| SQLite3 Queue | 1.8880  | 2.0290                  | 3.5940                     |
+---------------+---------+-------------------------+----------------------------+
| File Queue    | 4.9520  | 5.0560                  | 8.4900                     |
+---------------+---------+-------------------------+----------------------------+

Benchmarking
------------

You can easily benchmark the performance of all queue types (including async) using the built-in tool:

**Run with tox:**

.. code-block:: console

    tox -e bench -- rst

**Or run directly:**

.. code-block:: console

    python benchmark/run_benchmark.py 1000 rst

- The first argument is the number of items to test (default: 1000)
- The second argument is the output format: `rst` (for reStructuredText table), `console`, or `json`

**Example output (rst):**

.. code-block:: text

    +--------------------+--------------------+--------------------+--------------------+
    | Queue Type         | Write              | Write/Read(1 task_done) | Write/Read(many task_done) |
    +--------------------+--------------------+--------------------+--------------------+
    | File Queue         | 0.0481             | 0.0299             | 0.0833             |
    | AsyncSQLiteQueue   | 0.2664             | 0.5353             | 0.5508             |
    | AsyncFileQueue     | 0.1333             | 0.1500             | 0.2337             |
    +--------------------+--------------------+--------------------+--------------------+

This makes it easy to compare the performance of sync and async queues on your platform.

Performance Tips
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

* **WAL Mode**: SQLite3 queues use WAL mode by default for better performance
* **auto_commit=False**: Use for batch operations, call ``task_done()`` to persist
* **Protocol Selection**: Automatically selects optimal pickle protocol
* **Windows**: File queue performance improved 3-4x since v0.4.1
* **MySQL Connection Pooling**: MySQL queues use connection pooling for better performance

Testing
-------

Run tests using tox:

.. code-block:: console

    # Run tests for specific Python version
    tox -e py312
    
    # Run code style checks
    tox -e pep8
    
    # Generate coverage report
    tox -e cover

Development
-----------

Install development dependencies:

.. code-block:: console

    pip install -r test-requirements.txt
    pip install -r extra-requirements.txt

Run benchmarks:

.. code-block:: console

    python benchmark/run_benchmark.py 1000

Release Notes
-------------

For detailed information about recent changes and updates, see:

* `Release Notes for v1.1 <docs/RELEASE_NOTES/releasenote-1.1.txt>`_ - Major update with async queue enhancements and pytest migration

Known Issues
------------

* **Windows File Queue**: Atomic operations are experimental. Critical data may become unreadable during ``task_done()`` failures
* **MySQL Tests**: Require local MySQL service, otherwise skipped automatically
* **Async Features**: Require Python 3.7+ and asyncio support

Troubleshooting
---------------

**Database Locked Error**
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

If you get ``sqlite3.OperationalError: database is locked``:

* Increase the ``timeout`` parameter when creating the queue
* Ensure you're using ``multithreading=True`` for multi-threaded access

**MySQL Connection Issues**
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

If you get MySQL connection errors:

* Verify MySQL server is running and accessible
* Check connection parameters (host, port, user, password)
* Ensure the database exists and user has proper permissions
* For connection pool issues, try increasing ``max_connections`` parameter

**Thread Safety Issues**
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

* Make sure to set ``multithreading=True`` when initializing SQLite queues
* SQLite3 queues are thoroughly tested in multi-threading environments
* MySQL queues are thread-safe by default

**Import Errors**
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

* For async features: Install with ``pip install "persist-queue[async]"``
* For MySQL support: Install with ``pip install "persist-queue[extra]"``
