Lockers
Function to set lock hook.
from django_extra_tools.lockers import lock
lock('unique_lock_name')
Next usage of lock on the same lock name raises LockError
exception.
You can configure locker mechanism through DEFAULT_LOCKER_CLASS
settings or directly:
from django_extra_tools.lockers import FileLocker
lock = FileLocker()('unique_lock_name')
FileLocker
This is a default locker.
This locker creates a unique_lock_name.lock file in temp directory.
You can configure this locker through settings:
DEFAULT_LOCKER_CLASS = 'django_extra_tools.lockers.FileLocker'
CacheLocker
This locker creates a locker-unique_lock_name key in cache.
You can configure this locker through settings:
DEFAULT_LOCKER_CLASS = 'django_extra_tools.lockers.CacheLocker'
