Revision 2. </p> <p>Distributed lock manager provides mutex(es) over network. It is used to synchronize processes running on different machines, e.g. WSGI processes in case of web applications. Lock object is compatible with threading.Lock and can be used as a context manager ("with statement"). It can be easily modified to use UNIX sockets instead of TCP/IP. Communication protocol is text based.</p> <p>First start server process:</p> <pre class="prettyprint"><code>$ chmod +x dlm.py $ ./dlm.py </code></pre> <p>Usage:</p> <pre class="prettyprint"><code>from dlm import LockClient client = LockClient('localhost', 27272, 'client_name') lock = client.mkLock('lock_name') lock.acquire() # critical section here... lock.release() # using context manager with lock: # critical section here... </code></pre>

<p style="color: grey"> Python recipe 534162 by <a href="/recipes/users/4048784/">thanos vassilakis</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/distributed/">distributed</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/erlang/">erlang</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/integration/">integration</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/process/">process</a>). Revision 3. </p> <p>Erlang has two built-in interoperability mechanisms. One is distributed Erlang nodes and the other one is ports. Ports provide the basic Erlang mechanism for communication with the external world. They provide a byte-oriented interface to an external program. When a port has been created, Erlang can communicate with it by sending and receiving lists of bytes. This recipe cooks an Erlang port in python. Making it easy for Erlang to instantiate and use python objects. Like most simple port implementations it uses an external python program and lets Erlang communicate via standard input and write to standard output. Theoretically, the external program could be written in any programming language. This recipe is pretty abstract and you will have to implement your own encode and decoding scheme.</p>

<p style="color: grey"> Python recipe 496982 by <a href="/recipes/users/126911/">Will Ware</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/distributed/">distributed</a>). </p> <p>This script runs a render farm on a bunch of networked machines, each with SSHD running, and POV-Ray and ImageMagick installed. The host machine uses mpeg2encode and ffmpeg to produce a MP4 video file, which I transfer to the Mac to burn a DVD. To keep life simple, I clone the same .ssh directory on all the machines.</p>

<p style="color: grey"> Python recipe 473883 by <a href="/recipes/users/2775366/">Sebastian Schneckener</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/distributed/">distributed</a>). </p> <p>This is a simple example of web service usage (here: currency exchange rate service from xmethods) in python via a http proxy. Proxy information is taken from the environment.</p>
