Early exit¶
This functionality is available since 1.7, but needed to be explicitly activated until version 2.0
Note that, in all cases, the process will only exit after finishing a task. If you set a time limit and that time is reach while a task is running, then the task will keep going.
Maximum running time¶
The following variables specify the maximum running time:
JUG_MAX_HOURS
JUG_MAX_MINUTES
JUG_MAX_SECONDS
The names should be self-explanatory, but note that they are additive, so
that JUG_MAX_HOURS=1 JUG_MAX_MINUTES=30
means that the process will run for 1
hour and 30 minutes.
from jug.hooks.exit_checks import exit_after_time
exit_after_time(hours=..., minutes=..., seconds=...)
Exiting if a file exists¶
This can be specified by the environmental variable JUG_EXIT_IF_FILE_EXISTS
,
but the filename __jug_please_stop_running.txt
is always added as well.
To achieve the same with code, run:
from jug.hooks.exit_checks import exit_if_file_exists
exit_if_file_exists('__jug_please_stop_running.txt')
Exiting after a specified number of tasks¶
Use the variable JUG_MAX_TASKS
or run the following code:
from jug.hooks.exit_checks import exit_after_n_tasks
exit_after_n_tasks(int(environ['JUG_MAX_TASKS']))
