proxystore/connectors/file.py

File system connector implementation.

FileKey

Bases: NamedTuple

Key to objects in a file system directory.

Attributes:

• filename (str) –

  Unique object filename.

FileConnector

FileConnector(store_dir: str, clear: bool = True)

Connector to shared file system.

This connector writes objects to unique files within store_dir. Marker files are used to indicate that an object is finished being written to avoid race conditions.

Parameters:

• store_dir (str) –

  Path to directory to store data in. Note this directory will be deleted upon closing the store.

• clear (bool, default: True ) –

  Clear all objects on close() by removing store_dir.

Source code in proxystore/connectors/file.py

def __init__(self, store_dir: str, clear: bool = True) -> None:
    self.store_dir = os.path.abspath(store_dir)
    self.clear = clear

    if not os.path.exists(self.store_dir):
        os.makedirs(self.store_dir, exist_ok=True)

close

close(clear: bool | None = None) -> None

Close the connector and clean up.

Warning

This will delete the store_dir directory by default.

Warning

This method should only be called at the end of the program when the connector will no longer be used, for example once all proxies have been resolved.

Parameters:

• clear (bool | None, default: None ) –

  Remove the store directory. Overrides the default value of clear provided when the FileConnector was instantiated.

config() -> dict[str, Any]

from_config classmethod

from_config(config: dict[str, Any]) -> FileConnector

Create a new connector instance from a configuration.

Parameters:

• config (dict[str, Any]) –

  Configuration returned by .config().

get_batch

get_batch(keys: Sequence[FileKey]) -> list[bytes | None]

Get a batch of serialized objects associated with the keys.

Parameters:

set

set(key: FileKey, obj: bytes) -> None

Set the object associated with a key.

Note

The Connector provides write-once, read-many semantics. Thus, set() should only be called once per key, otherwise unexpected behavior can occur.

Parameters:

• key (FileKey) –

  Key that the object will be associated with.

• obj (bytes) –

  Object to associate with the key.
