Simplifies creating a pool of workers that execute jobs in parallel
- Easy to use
- Context Support
- Fail fast with errors
- Customizable Pool Size
- Default number of workers is 10
- Customizable Job Queue Size
- Default size is 100
Running multiple function calls in parallel without a timeout.
package main
import (
"fmt"
"github.com/shomali11/parallelizer"
)
func main() {
group := parallelizer.NewGroup()
defer group.Close()
group.Add(func() error {
for char := 'a'; char < 'a'+3; char++ {
fmt.Printf("%c ", char)
}
return nil
})
group.Add(func() error {
for number := 1; number < 4; number++ {
fmt.Printf("%d ", number)
}
return nil
})
err := group.Wait()
fmt.Println()
fmt.Println("Done")
fmt.Printf("Error: %v", err)
}
Output:
a 1 b 2 c 3
Done
Error: <nil>
Running multiple slow function calls in parallel with a context with a short timeout. Note: The timeout will not kill the routines. It will just stop waiting for them to finish
package main
import (
"context"
"fmt"
"github.com/shomali11/parallelizer"
"time"
)
func main() {
group := parallelizer.NewGroup()
defer group.Close()
group.Add(func() error {
time.Sleep(2 * time.Second)
fmt.Println("Finished work 1")
return nil
})
group.Add(func() error {
time.Sleep(2 * time.Second)
fmt.Println("Finished work 2")
return nil
})
ctx, cancel := context.WithTimeout(context.Background(), time.Second)
defer cancel()
err := group.Wait(parallelizer.WithContext(ctx))
fmt.Println("Done")
fmt.Printf("Error: %v", err)
fmt.Println()
time.Sleep(2 * time.Second)
}
Output:
Done
Error: context deadline exceeded
Finished work 2
Finished work 1
Running multiple function calls in parallel with a large enough worker pool.
package main
import (
"fmt"
"github.com/shomali11/parallelizer"
)
func main() {
group := parallelizer.NewGroup(parallelizer.WithPoolSize(10))
defer group.Close()
for i := 1; i <= 10; i++ {
i := i
group.Add(func() error {
fmt.Print(i, " ")
return nil
})
}
err := group.Wait()
fmt.Println()
fmt.Println("Done")
fmt.Printf("Error: %v", err)
}
Output:
7 6 3 2 8 9 5 10 1 4
Done
Error: <nil>
Running multiple function calls with 1 worker. Note: the functions are no longer executed in parallel but sequentially
package main
import (
"fmt"
"github.com/shomali11/parallelizer"
)
func main() {
group := parallelizer.NewGroup(parallelizer.WithPoolSize(1))
defer group.Close()
for i := 1; i <= 10; i++ {
i := i
group.Add(func() error {
fmt.Print(i, " ")
return nil
})
}
err := group.Wait()
fmt.Println()
fmt.Println("Done")
fmt.Printf("Error: %v", err)
}
Output:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
Done
Error: <nil>
Running multiple function calls in parallel with a small worker pool and job queue size. Note: the Add
call blocks until there is space to push into the Job Queue
package main
import (
"fmt"
"github.com/shomali11/parallelizer"
"time"
)
func main() {
group := parallelizer.NewGroup(parallelizer.WithPoolSize(1), parallelizer.WithJobQueueSize(1))
defer group.Close()
for i := 1; i <= 10; i++ {
group.Add(func() error {
time.Sleep(time.Second)
return nil
})
fmt.Println("Job added at", time.Now().Format("04:05"))
}
err := group.Wait()
fmt.Println()
fmt.Println("Done")
fmt.Printf("Error: %v", err)
}
Output:
Job added at 00:12
Job added at 00:13
Job added at 00:14
Job added at 00:15
Job added at 00:16
Job added at 00:17
Job added at 00:18
Job added at 00:19
Job added at 00:20
Job added at 00:21
Done
Error: <nil>
Running multiple function calls in parallel with a large enough worker pool and job queue size. Note: In here the Add
calls did not block because there was plenty of space in the Job Queue
package main
import (
"fmt"
"github.com/shomali11/parallelizer"
"time"
)
func main() {
group := parallelizer.NewGroup(parallelizer.WithPoolSize(10), parallelizer.WithJobQueueSize(10))
defer group.Close()
for i := 1; i <= 10; i++ {
group.Add(func() error {
time.Sleep(time.Second)
return nil
})
fmt.Println("Job added at", time.Now().Format("04:05"))
}
err := group.Wait()
fmt.Println()
fmt.Println("Done")
fmt.Printf("Error: %v", err)
}
Output:
Job added at 00:30
Job added at 00:30
Job added at 00:30
Job added at 00:30
Job added at 00:30
Job added at 00:30
Job added at 00:30
Job added at 00:30
Job added at 00:30
Job added at 00:30
Done
Error: <nil>
Showing an example without calling Wait
package main
import (
"fmt"
"github.com/shomali11/parallelizer"
"time"
)
func main() {
group := parallelizer.NewGroup()
defer group.Close()
group.Add(func() error {
fmt.Println("Finished work")
return nil
})
fmt.Println("We did not wait!")
time.Sleep(time.Second)
}
Output:
We did not wait!
Finished work
Showing an example with a mixture of Add
and Wait
calls.
package main
import (
"fmt"
"github.com/shomali11/parallelizer"
)
func main() {
group := parallelizer.NewGroup()
defer group.Close()
group.Add(func() error {
fmt.Println("Worker 1")
return nil
})
group.Add(func() error {
fmt.Println("Worker 2")
return nil
})
fmt.Println("Waiting for workers 1 and 2 to finish")
group.Wait()
fmt.Println("Workers 1 and 2 have finished")
group.Add(func() error {
fmt.Println("Worker 3")
return nil
})
fmt.Println("Waiting for worker 3 to finish")
group.Wait()
fmt.Println("Worker 3 has finished")
}
Output:
Waiting for workers 1 and 2 to finish
Worker 1
Worker 2
Workers 1 and 2 have finished
Waiting for worker 3 to finish
Worker 3
Worker 3 has finished
Showing an example with a failed task.
package main
import (

"time"
"github.com/shomali11/parallelizer"
)
func main() {
group := parallelizer.NewGroup()
defer group.Close()
group.Add(func() error {
return errors.New("something went wrong")
})
group.Add(func() error {
time.Sleep(10 * time.Second)
return nil
})
err := group.Wait()
fmt.Println()
fmt.Println("Done")
fmt.Printf("Error: %v", err)
