python - Individual timeouts for concurrent.futures -

i see 2 ways specify timeouts in concurrent.futures.

• as_completed()
• wait()

both methods handle n running futures.

i specify individual timeout each future.

use case:

• future getting data db has timeout of 0.5 secs.
• future getting data http server has timeout of 1.2 secs.

how handle concurrent.futures? or library not right tool?

conclusion

• afaik solution mdurant work-around.
• i think use different library next time. maybe asyncio has better support this. see: https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#asyncio.sleep

how implementing own:

wait(dbfutures + httpfutures, timeout=0.5) [fut.cancel() fut in bdfutures if not fut.done()] wait(httpfutures, timeout=0.7) [fut.cancel() fut in httpfutures if not fut.done()] 

(or while loop sleep/check or wait short timeout)
