我编写了一个文件的子类,它a)提供了方便地锁定它的方法(使用fcntl,所以它只支持unix,但这对我atm来说还可以)和b)在读取或写入时断言文件已适当锁定。

现在我不是这些东西的专家(我刚刚读过一篇关于它的论文 [de])并且希望得到一些反馈:它是否安全,是否存在竞争条件,是否还有其他可以做得更好的事情......在这里是代码:

from fcntl import flock, LOCK_EX, LOCK_SH, LOCK_UN, LOCK_NB

class LockedFile(file):
    """
    A wrapper around `file` providing locking. Requires a shared lock to read
    and a exclusive lock to write.

    Main differences:
     * Additional methods: lock_ex, lock_sh, unlock
     * Refuse to read when not locked, refuse to write when not locked
       exclusivly.
     * mode cannot be `w` since then the file would be truncated before
       it could be locked.

    You have to lock the file yourself, it won't be done for you implicitly.
    Only you know what lock you need.

    Example usage::
        def get_config():
            f = LockedFile(CONFIG_FILENAME, 'r')
            f.lock_sh()
            config = parse_ini(f.read())
            f.close()

        def set_config(key, value):
            f = LockedFile(CONFIG_FILENAME, 'r+')
            f.lock_ex()
            config = parse_ini(f.read())
            config[key] = value
            f.truncate()
            f.write(make_ini(config))
            f.close()
    """

    def __init__(self, name, mode='r', *args, **kwargs):
        if 'w' in mode:
            raise ValueError('Cannot open file in `w` mode')

        super(LockedFile, self).__init__(name, mode, *args, **kwargs)

        self.locked = None

    def lock_sh(self, **kwargs):
        """
        Acquire a shared lock on the file. If the file is already locked
        exclusively, do nothing.

        :returns: Lock status from before the call (one of 'sh', 'ex', None).
        :param nonblocking: Don't wait for the lock to be available.
        """
        if self.locked == 'ex':
            return # would implicitly remove the exclusive lock
        return self._lock(LOCK_SH, **kwargs)

    def lock_ex(self, **kwargs):

    def unlock(self):

        before = self.locked

        return before

    def write(self, *args):

    def writelines(self, *args):

    def flush(self):

    def truncate(self, *args):
        self._assert_write_lock()
        return super(LockedFile, self).truncate(*args)

    def close(self):
        self.unlock()
        return super(LockedFile, self).close()

(文档字符串中的示例也是我当前的用例)

我也不是专家,但你应该改变一件事,还有几件事需要考虑:

首先,使用assert这种方式是一个坏主意:如果 python 使用 -O 或 -OO 运行,则关闭断言,并且您的两个assert_*_lock()方法将始终返回 True。

第二——你需要一些测试。:) 我冒昧地添加了一个自定义错误类并编写了几个测试。前四次通过,最后一次失败;这就提出了一个问题,如果文件被正常打开(作为其他一些非 LockedFile 对象)并且数据被写入会发生什么?

哦,最后——LockableFile 这个名字对我来说更有意义,因为文件可以处于解锁状态。

以下是我所做的更改:

class LockedFileError(OSError): # might want IOError instead
    pass

if __name__ == '__main__':
    import unittest
    import tempfile
    import shutil
    import os

    class TestLockedFile(unittest.TestCase):
        def setUp(self):
            self.dir = tempfile.mkdtemp()
            self.testfile = testfile = os.path.join(self.dir, 'opened.txt')
            temp = open(testfile, 'w')
            temp.write('[global]\nsetting1=99\nsetting2=42\n')
            temp.close()

        def tearDown(self):
            shutil.rmtree(self.dir, ignore_errors=True)

        def test_01(self):
            "writes fail if not locked exclusively"
            testfile = self.testfile
            temp = LockedFile(testfile, 'r+')
            self.assertRaises(LockedFileError, temp.write, 'arbitrary data')
            temp.lock_sh()
            self.assertRaises(LockedFileError, temp.write, 'arbitrary data')

        def test_02(self):
            "reads fail if not locked"
            testfile = self.testfile
            temp = LockedFile(testfile, 'r')
            self.assertRaises(LockedFileError, temp.read)

        def test_03(self):
            "writes succeed if locked exclusively"
            testfile = self.testfile
            temp = LockedFile(testfile, 'r+')
            temp.lock_ex()
            temp.write('arbitrary data\n')

        def test_04(self):
            "reads succeed if locked"
            testfile = self.testfile
            temp = LockedFile(testfile, 'r')
            temp.lock_sh()
            temp.readline()
            temp.lock_ex()
            temp.readline()

        def test_05(self):
            "other writes fail if locked exclusively"
            testfile = self.testfile
            temp = LockedFile(testfile, 'r')
            temp.lock_ex()
            testing = open(testfile, 'r+')
            # not sure if this should be OSError, IOError, or something else...
            self.assertRaises(OSError, testing.write, 'this should fail\n')

    unittest.main()

应该编写更多测试以涵盖 LockedFile 与读取、写入和其他非 LockedFile 文件对象尝试读取/写入同一实际文件的各种组合。
