我想multiprocessing在 Python 中使用该库。遗憾的是multiprocessing使用picklewhich 不支持带有闭包、lambda 或__main__. 这三个对我来说都很重要

In [1]: import pickle

In [2]: pickle.dumps(lambda x: x)
PicklingError: Can't pickle <function <lambda> at 0x23c0e60>: it's not found as __main__.<lambda>

幸运的是，有dill一种更健壮的泡菜。显然dill在导入时执行魔术以使泡菜工作

In [3]: import dill

In [4]: pickle.dumps(lambda x: x)
Out[4]: "cdill.dill\n_load_type\np0\n(S'FunctionType'\np1 ...

这非常令人鼓舞，特别是因为我无法访问多处理源代码。可悲的是，我仍然无法让这个非常基本的示例工作

import multiprocessing as mp
import dill

p = mp.Pool(4)
print p.map(lambda x: x**2, range(10))

为什么是这样？我错过了什么？multiprocessing+dill组合的具体限制是什么？

multiprocessing对酸洗做了一些不好的选择。不要误会我的意思，它做出了一些不错的选择，使其能够腌制某些类型，以便它们可以在池的地图功能中使用。然而，既然我们有dill可以做酸洗的，多处理自己的酸洗就有点限制了。实际上，如果multiprocessing要使用pickle而不是cPickle... 并且还放弃一些它自己的酸洗覆盖，那么dill可以接管并为multiprocessing.

在此之前，有一个multiprocessing名为pathos的分支（不幸的是，发布版本有点陈旧）消除了上述限制。Pathos 还添加了多处理没有的一些不错的功能，例如 map 函数中的多参数。Pathos 将发布，经过一些温和的更新——主要是转换为 python 3.x。

Python 2.7.5 (default, Sep 30 2013, 20:15:49)

>>> result = pool.map(lambda x: x**2, range(10))
>>> result

您可能想尝试使用multiprocessing_on_dill库，它是在后端实现 dill 的多处理的一个分支。

例如，您可以运行：

>>> import multiprocessing_on_dill as multiprocessing
>>> with multiprocessing.Pool() as pool:
...     pool.map(lambda x: x**2, range(10))
... 
[0, 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81]

覆盖多处理模块 Pickle 类

import dill, multiprocessing
dill.Pickler.dumps, dill.Pickler.loads = dill.dumps, dill.loads
multiprocessing.reduction.ForkingPickler = dill.Pickler
multiprocessing.reduction.dump = dill.dump
multiprocessing.queues._ForkingPickler = dill.Pickler

我知道这个线程很旧，但是，您不一定要pathos像 Mike McKerns 指出的那样使用该模块。我也觉得multiprocessing使用pickle而不是很烦人dill，所以你可以这样做：

import multiprocessing as mp
import dill
def helperFunction(f, inp, *args, **kwargs):
    import dill # reimport, just in case this is not available on the new processes
    f = dill.loads(f) # converts bytes to (potentially lambda) function
    return f(inp, *args, **kwargs)
def mapStuff(f, inputs, *args, **kwargs):
    pool = mp.Pool(6) # create a 6-worker pool
    f = dill.dumps(f) # converts (potentially lambda) function to bytes
    futures = [pool.apply_async(helperFunction, [f, inp, *args], kwargs) for inp in inputs]
    return [f.get() for f in futures]

然后，您可以像这样使用它：

mapStuff(lambda x: x**2, [2, 3]) # returns [4, 9]
mapStuff(lambda x, b: x**2 + b, [2, 3], 1) # returns [5, 10]
mapStuff(lambda x, b: x**2 + b, [2, 3], b=1) # also returns [5, 10]

def f(x):
    return x**2
mapStuff(f, [4, 5]) # returns [16, 25]

它的工作原理基本上是，您将 lambda 函数转换为bytes对象，将其传递给子进程，并让它重建 lambda 函数。在代码中，我只是用来dill序列化函数，但如果需要，您也可以序列化参数。
