lockfile.py - Platform-independent advisory file locks.
Requires Python 2.5 unless you apply 2.4.diff
Locking is done on a per-thread basis instead of a per-process basis.
Usage:
>>> lock = LockFile('somefile')
>>> try:
... lock.acquire()
... except AlreadyLocked:
... print 'somefile', 'is locked already.'
... except LockFailed:
... print 'somefile', 'can\\'t be locked.'
... else:
... print 'got lock'
got lock
>>> print lock.is_locked()
True
>>> lock.release()
>>> lock = LockFile('somefile')
>>> print lock.is_locked()
False
>>> with lock:
... print lock.is_locked()
True
>>> print lock.is_locked()
False
>>> lock = LockFile('somefile')
>>> # It is okay to lock twice from the same thread...
>>> with lock:
... lock.acquire()
...
>>> # Though no counter is kept, so you can't unlock multiple times...
>>> print lock.is_locked()
False
Exceptions:
Error - base class for other exceptions
LockError - base class for all locking exceptions
AlreadyLocked - Another thread or process already holds the lock
LockFailed - Lock failed for some other reason
UnlockError - base class for all unlocking exceptions
AlreadyUnlocked - File was not locked.
NotMyLock - File was locked but not by the current thread/process
