Data resides under the manager process. Three options are available for overriding the default value for new queues. The porder option applies to priority queues only. use MCE::Queue porder => $MCE::Queue::HIGHEST, type => $MCE::Queue::FIFO; use MCE::Queue; # Same as above ## Possible values porder => $MCE::Queue::HIGHEST # Highest priority items dequeue first $MCE::Queue::LOWEST # Lowest priority items dequeue first type => $MCE::Queue::FIFO # First in, first out $MCE::Queue::LIFO # Last in, first out $MCE::Queue::LILO # (Synonym for FIFO) $MCE::Queue::FILO # (Synonym for LIFO) =head1 DEMONSTRATION MCE::Queue provides two run modes. (A) The C object is constructed before running MCE. The data resides under the manager process. Workers send and request data via IPC. (B) Workers might want to construct a queue for local access. In this mode, the data resides under the worker process and not available to other workers including the manager process. use MCE; use MCE::Queue; my $F = MCE::Queue->new( fast => 1 ); my $consumers = 8; my $mce = MCE->new( task_end => sub { my ($mce, $task_id, $task_name) = @_; $F->end() if $task_name eq 'dir'; }, user_tasks => [{ max_workers => 1, task_name => 'dir', user_func => sub { ## Create a "standalone queue" only accessible to this worker. my $D = MCE::Queue->new(queue => [ MCE->user_args->[0] ]); while (defined (my $dir = $D->dequeue_nb)) { my (@files, @dirs); foreach (glob("$dir/*")) { if (-d $_) { push @dirs, $_; next; } push @files, $_; } $D->enqueue(@dirs ) if scalar @dirs; $F->enqueue(@files) if scalar @files; } } },{ max_workers => $consumers, task_name => 'file', user_func => sub { while (defined (my $file = $F->dequeue)) { MCE->say($file); } } }] )->run({ user_args => [ $ARGV[0] || '.' ] }); __END__ Results taken from files_mce.pl and files_thr.pl on the web. https://github.com/marioroy/mce-examples/tree/master/other Usage: time ./files_mce.pl /usr 0 | wc -l time ./files_mce.pl /usr 1 | wc -l time ./files_thr.pl /usr | wc -l Darwin (OS) /usr: 216,271 files MCE::Queue, fast => 0 : 4.17s MCE::Queue, fast => 1 : 2.62s Thread::Queue : 4.14s Linux (VM) /usr: 186,154 files MCE::Queue, fast => 0 : 12.57s MCE::Queue, fast => 1 : 3.36s Thread::Queue : 5.91s Solaris (VM) /usr: 603,051 files MCE::Queue, fast => 0 : 39.04s MCE::Queue, fast => 1 : 18.08s Thread::Queue * Perl not built to support threads =head1 API DOCUMENTATION =head2 MCE::Queue->new ( [ queue => \@array, await => 1, fast => 1 ] ) This creates a new queue. Available options are queue, porder, type, await, and gather. Note: The barrier and fast options are silentently ignored (no-op) if specified; starting with 1.867. use MCE; use MCE::Queue; my $q1 = MCE::Queue->new(); my $q2 = MCE::Queue->new( queue => [ 0, 1, 2 ] ); my $q3 = MCE::Queue->new( porder => $MCE::Queue::HIGHEST ); my $q4 = MCE::Queue->new( porder => $MCE::Queue::LOWEST ); my $q5 = MCE::Queue->new( type => $MCE::Queue::FIFO ); my $q6 = MCE::Queue->new( type => $MCE::Queue::LIFO ); my $q7 = MCE::Queue->new( await => 1, barrier => 0 ); my $q8 = MCE::Queue->new( fast => 1 ); The C option, when enabled, allows workers to block (semaphore-like) until the number of items pending is equal to or less than a threshold value. The $q->await method is described below. Obsolete: On Unix platforms, C mode (enabled by default) prevents many workers from dequeuing simultaneously to lessen overhead for the OS kernel. Specify 0 to disable barrier mode and not allocate sockets. The barrier option has no effect if constructing the queue inside a thread or enabling C. Obsolete: The C option speeds up dequeues and is not enabled by default. It is beneficial for queues not calling (->dequeue_nb) and not altering the count value while running; e.g. ->dequeue($count). The C option is mainly for running with MCE and wanting to pass item(s) to a callback function for appending to the queue. Multiple queues may point to the same callback function. The callback receives the queue object as the first argument and items after it. sub _append { my ($q, @items) = @_; $q->enqueue(@items); } my $q7 = MCE::Queue->new( gather => \&_append ); my $q8 = MCE::Queue->new( gather => \&_append ); ## Items are diverted to the callback function, not the queue. $q7->enqueue( 'apple', 'orange' ); Specifying the C option allows one to store items temporarily while ensuring output order. Although a queue object is not required, this is simply a demonstration of the gather option in the context of a queue. use MCE; use MCE::Queue; sub preserve_order { my %tmp; my $order_id = 1; return sub { my ($q, $chunk_id, $data) = @_; $tmp{$chunk_id} = $data; while (1) { last unless exists $tmp{$order_id}; $q->enqueue( delete $tmp{$order_id++} ); } return; }; } my @squares; my $q = MCE::Queue->new( queue => \@squares, gather => preserve_order ); my $mce = MCE->new( chunk_size => 1, input_data => [ 1 .. 100 ], user_func => sub { $q->enqueue( MCE->chunk_id, $_ * $_ ); } ); $mce->run; print "@squares\n"; =head2 $q->await ( $pending_threshold ) The await method is beneficial when wanting to throttle worker(s) appending to the queue. Perhaps, consumers are running a bit behind and wanting to keep tabs on memory consumption. Below, the number of items pending will never go above 20. use Time::HiRes qw( sleep ); use MCE::Flow; use MCE::Queue; my $q = MCE::Queue->new( await => 1, fast => 1 ); my ( $producers, $consumers ) = ( 1, 8 ); mce_flow { task_name => [ 'producer', 'consumer' ], max_workers => [ $producers, $consumers ], }, sub { ## producer for my $item ( 1 .. 100 ) { $q->enqueue($item); ## blocks until the # of items pending reaches <= 10 if ($item % 10 == 0) { MCE->say( 'pending: '.$q->pending() ); $q->await(10); } } ## notify consumers no more work $q->end(); }, sub { ## consumers while (defined (my $next = $q->dequeue())) { MCE->say( MCE->task_wid().': '.$next ); sleep 0.100; } }; =head2 $q->clear ( void ) Clears the queue of any items. This has the effect of nulling the queue and the socket used for blocking. my @a; my $q = MCE::Queue->new( queue => \@a ); @a = (); ## bad, the blocking socket may become out of sync $q->clear; ## ok =head2 $q->end ( void ) Stops the queue from receiving more items. Any worker blocking on C will be unblocked automatically. Subsequent calls to C will behave like C. Current API available since MCE 1.818. $q->end(); MCE Models (e.g. MCE::Flow) may persist between runs. In that case, one might want to enqueue C's versus calling C. The number of C's depends on how many items workers dequeue at a time. $q->enqueue((undef) x ($N_workers * 1)); # $q->dequeue() 1 item $q->enqueue((undef) x ($N_workers * 2)); # $q->dequeue(2) 2 items $q->enqueue((undef) x ($N_workers * N)); # $q->dequeue(N) N items =head2 $q->enqueue ( $item [, $item, ... ] ) Appends a list of items onto the end of the normal queue. $q->enqueue( 'foo' ); $q->enqueue( 'bar', 'baz' ); =head2 $q->enqueuep ( $p, $item [, $item, ... ] ) Appends a list of items onto the end of the priority queue with priority. $q->enqueue( $priority, 'foo' ); $q->enqueue( $priority, 'bar', 'baz' ); =head2 $q->dequeue ( [ $count ] ) Returns the requested number of items (default 1) from the queue. Priority data will always dequeue first before any data from the normal queue. $q->dequeue; $q->dequeue( 2 ); The method will block if the queue contains zero items. If the queue contains fewer than the requested number of items, the method will not block, but return whatever items there are on the queue. The $count, used for requesting the number of items, is beneficial when workers are passing parameters through the queue. For this reason, always remember to dequeue using the same multiple for the count. This is unlike Thread::Queue which will block until the requested number of items are available. # MCE::Queue 1.820 and prior releases while ( my @items = $q->dequeue(2) ) { last unless ( defined $items[0] ); ... } # MCE::Queue 1.821 and later while ( my @items = $q->dequeue(2) ) { ... } =head2 $q->dequeue_nb ( [ $count ] ) Returns the requested number of items (default 1) from the queue. Like with dequeue, priority data will always dequeue first. This method is non-blocking and returns C in the absence of data. $q->dequeue_nb; $q->dequeue_nb( 2 ); =head2 $q->dequeue_timed ( timeout [, $count ] ) Returns the requested number of items (default 1) from the queue. Like with dequeue, priority data will always dequeue first. This method is blocking until the timeout is reached and returns C in the absence of data. Current API available since MCE 1.886. $q->dequeue_timed( 300 ); # timeout after 5 minutes $q->dequeue_timed( 300, 2 ); The timeout may be specified as fractional seconds. If timeout is missing, undef, less than or equal to 0, or called by the manager process, then this call behaves like dequeue_nb. =head2 $q->insert ( $index, $item [, $item, ... ] ) Adds the list of items to the queue at the specified index position (0 is the head of the list). The head of the queue is that item which would be removed by a call to dequeue. $q = MCE::Queue->new( type => $MCE::Queue::FIFO ); $q->enqueue(1, 2, 3, 4); $q->insert(1, 'foo', 'bar'); # Queue now contains: 1, foo, bar, 2, 3, 4 $q = MCE::Queue->new( type => $MCE::Queue::LIFO ); $q->enqueue(1, 2, 3, 4); $q->insert(1, 'foo', 'bar'); # Queue now contains: 1, 2, 3, 'foo', 'bar', 4 =head2 $q->insertp ( $p, $index, $item [, $item, ... ] ) Adds the list of items to the queue at the specified index position with priority. The behavior is similarly to C<< $q->insert >> otherwise. =head2 $q->pending ( void ) Returns the number of items in the queue. The count includes both normal and priority data. Returns C if the queue has been ended, and there are no more items in the queue. $q = MCE::Queue->new(); $q->enqueuep(5, 'foo', 'bar'); $q->enqueue('sunny', 'day'); print $q->pending(), "\n"; # Output: 4 =head2 $q->peek ( [ $index ] ) Returns an item from the normal queue, at the specified index, without dequeuing anything. It defaults to the head of the queue if index is not specified. The head of the queue is that item which would be removed by a call to dequeue. Negative index values are supported, similarly to arrays. $q = MCE::Queue->new( type => $MCE::Queue::FIFO ); $q->enqueue(1, 2, 3, 4, 5); print $q->peek(1), ' ', $q->peek(-2), "\n"; # Output: 2 4 $q = MCE::Queue->new( type => $MCE::Queue::LIFO ); $q->enqueue(1, 2, 3, 4, 5); print $q->peek(1), ' ', $q->peek(-2), "\n"; # Output: 4 2 =head2 $q->peekp ( $p [, $index ] ) Returns an item from the queue with priority, at the specified index, without dequeuing anything. It defaults to the head of the queue if index is not specified. The behavior is similarly to C<< $q->peek >> otherwise. =head2 $q->peekh ( [ $index ] ) Returns an item from the head of the heap or at the specified index. $q = MCE::Queue->new( porder => $MCE::Queue::HIGHEST ); $q->enqueuep(5, 'foo'); $q->enqueuep(6, 'bar'); $q->enqueuep(4, 'sun'); print $q->peekh(0), "\n"; # Output: 6 $q = MCE::Queue->new( porder => $MCE::Queue::LOWEST ); $q->enqueuep(5, 'foo'); $q->enqueuep(6, 'bar'); $q->enqueuep(4, 'sun'); print $q->peekh(0), "\n"; # Output: 4 =head2 $q->heap ( void ) Returns an array containing the heap data. Heap data consists of priority numbers, not the data. @h = $q->heap; # $MCE::Queue::HIGHEST # Heap contains: 6, 5, 4 @h = $q->heap; # $MCE::Queue::LOWEST # Heap contains: 4, 5, 6 =head1 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS =over 3 =item * L The bsearch_num_pos method was helpful for accommodating the highest and lowest order in MCE::Queue. =item * L For extra optimization, two if statements were adopted for checking if the item belongs at the end or head of the queue. =item * L MCE::Queue supports both normal and priority queues. =item * L Thread::Queue is used as a template for identifying and documenting the methods. MCE::Queue is not fully compatible due to supporting normal and priority queues simultaneously; e.g. $q->enqueue( $item [, $item, ... ] ); # normal queue $q->enqueuep( $p, $item [, $item, ... ] ); # priority queue $q->dequeue( [ $count ] ); # priority data dequeues first $q->dequeue_nb( [ $count ] ); $q->pending(); # counts both normal/priority queues =item * L The recursion example, in the synopsis above, was largely adopted from this module. =back =head1 INDEX L, L =head1 AUTHOR Mario E.
