在Python多处理库中，是否存在pool.map的变体，它支持多个参数？

text = "test"
def harvester(text, case):
    X = case[0]
    text+ str(X)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    pool = multiprocessing.Pool(processes=6)
    case = RAW_DATASET
    pool.map(harvester(text,case),case, 1)
    pool.close()
    pool.join()

答案是取决于版本和情况。JF Sebastian首先描述了最近的Python版本（从3.3开始）的最普遍答案。¹它使用Pool.starmap方法，该方法接受一个参数元组序列。然后，它会自动将每个元组的参数解包，并将其传递给给定的函数：

import multiprocessing
from itertools import product

def merge_names(a, b):
    return '{} & {}'.format(a, b)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    names = ['Brown', 'Wilson', 'Bartlett', 'Rivera', 'Molloy', 'Opie']
    with multiprocessing.Pool(processes=3) as pool:
        results = pool.starmap(merge_names, product(names, repeat=2))
    print(results)

# Output: ['Brown & Brown', 'Brown & Wilson', 'Brown & Bartlett', ...

对于早期版本的Python，您需要编写一个辅助函数来显式解压缩参数。如果要使用with，则还需要编写一个包装器以变为Pool上下文管理器。（感谢muon指出这一点。）

import multiprocessing
from itertools import product
from contextlib import contextmanager

def merge_names(a, b):
    return '{} & {}'.format(a, b)

def merge_names_unpack(args):
    return merge_names(*args)

@contextmanager
def poolcontext(*args, **kwargs):
    pool = multiprocessing.Pool(*args, **kwargs)
    yield pool
    pool.terminate()

if __name__ == '__main__':
    names = ['Brown', 'Wilson', 'Bartlett', 'Rivera', 'Molloy', 'Opie']
    with poolcontext(processes=3) as pool:
        results = pool.map(merge_names_unpack, product(names, repeat=2))
    print(results)

# Output: ['Brown & Brown', 'Brown & Wilson', 'Brown & Bartlett', ...

在更简单的情况下，使用固定的第二个参数，您也可以使用partial，但仅在Python 2.7+中使用。

import multiprocessing
from functools import partial
from contextlib import contextmanager

@contextmanager
def poolcontext(*args, **kwargs):
    pool = multiprocessing.Pool(*args, **kwargs)
    yield pool
    pool.terminate()

def merge_names(a, b):
    return '{} & {}'.format(a, b)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    names = ['Brown', 'Wilson', 'Bartlett', 'Rivera', 'Molloy', 'Opie']
    with poolcontext(processes=3) as pool:
        results = pool.map(partial(merge_names, b='Sons'), names)
    print(results)

# Output: ['Brown & Sons', 'Wilson & Sons', 'Bartlett & Sons', ...

^{1.这在很大程度上是受他的回答启发的，而他的回答可能应该被接受。但是，由于这个问题排在了最前面，所以最好对将来的读者进行改进。}

是否有pool.map的变体，它支持多个参数？

Python 3.3包含pool.starmap()方法：

#!/usr/bin/env python3
from functools import partial
from itertools import repeat
from multiprocessing import Pool, freeze_support

def func(a, b):
    return a + b

def main():
    a_args = [1,2,3]
    second_arg = 1
    with Pool() as pool:
        L = pool.starmap(func, [(1, 1), (2, 1), (3, 1)])
        M = pool.starmap(func, zip(a_args, repeat(second_arg)))
        N = pool.map(partial(func, b=second_arg), a_args)
        assert L == M == N

if __name__=="__main__":
    freeze_support()
    main()

对于旧版本：

#!/usr/bin/env python2
import itertools
from multiprocessing import Pool, freeze_support

def func(a, b):
    print a, b

def func_star(a_b):
    """Convert `f([1,2])` to `f(1,2)` call."""
    return func(*a_b)

def main():
    pool = Pool()
    a_args = [1,2,3]
    second_arg = 1
    pool.map(func_star, itertools.izip(a_args, itertools.repeat(second_arg)))

if __name__=="__main__":
    freeze_support()
    main()

输出量

1 1
2 1
3 1

注意此处的用法itertools.izip()和itertools.repeat()用法。

由于@unutbu提到的错误，您无法functools.partial()在Python 2.6上使用或类似的功能，因此func_star()应明确定义简单的包装器函数。又见解决方法 的建议uptimebox。

我认为下面会更好

def multi_run_wrapper(args):
   return add(*args)
def add(x,y):
    return x+y
if __name__ == "__main__":
    from multiprocessing import Pool
    pool = Pool(4)
    results = pool.map(multi_run_wrapper,[(1,2),(2,3),(3,4)])
    print results

输出

[3, 5, 7]

将Python 3.3+与pool.starmap():

from multiprocessing.dummy import Pool as ThreadPool 

def write(i, x):
    print(i, "---", x)

a = ["1","2","3"]
b = ["4","5","6"] 

pool = ThreadPool(2)
pool.starmap(write, zip(a,b)) 
pool.close() 
pool.join()

结果：

1 --- 4
2 --- 5
3 --- 6

如果您愿意，还可以zip（）更多参数： zip(a,b,c,d,e)

如果您希望将常量值作为参数传递，则必须使用import itertools，然后再使用zip(itertools.repeat(constant), a)。

在JF Sebastian答案中了解了itertools之后，我决定进一步研究并编写一个parmap程序包，该程序包涉及python-2.7和python-3.2（以及后来的版本）上的并行化，提供map和starmap功能，可以采用任意数量的位置参数。

安装

pip install parmap

如何并行化：

import parmap
# If you want to do:
y = [myfunction(x, argument1, argument2) for x in mylist]
# In parallel:
y = parmap.map(myfunction, mylist, argument1, argument2)

# If you want to do:
z = [myfunction(x, y, argument1, argument2) for (x,y) in mylist]
# In parallel:
z = parmap.starmap(myfunction, mylist, argument1, argument2)

# If you want to do:
listx = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
listy = [2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7]
param = 3.14
param2 = 42
listz = []
for (x, y) in zip(listx, listy):
        listz.append(myfunction(x, y, param1, param2))
# In parallel:
listz = parmap.starmap(myfunction, zip(listx, listy), param1, param2)

我已将parmap上传到PyPI和github存储库。

例如，可以如下回答该问题：

import parmap

def harvester(case, text):
    X = case[0]
    text+ str(X)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    case = RAW_DATASET  # assuming this is an iterable
    parmap.map(harvester, case, "test", chunksize=1)

＃“如何接受多个参数”。

def f1(args):
    a, b, c = args[0] , args[1] , args[2]
    return a+b+c

if __name__ == "__main__":
    import multiprocessing
    pool = multiprocessing.Pool(4) 

    result1 = pool.map(f1, [ [1,2,3] ])
    print(result1)

有一个multiprocessing名为pathos的分支（注意：使用github上的版本不需要），因为starmapmap函数镜像了python map的API，因此map可以采用多个参数。使用pathos，您通常还可以在解释器中进行多处理，而不会卡在__main__块中。经过一些轻微的更新后，Pathos即将发布，主要是转换为python3.x。

pathos有几种方法可以使您获得的确切行为starmap。

>>> def add(*x):
...   return sum(x)
... 
>>> x = [[1,2,3],[4,5,6]]
>>> import pathos
>>> import numpy as np
>>> # use ProcessPool's map and transposing the inputs
>>> pp = pathos.pools.ProcessPool()
>>> pp.map(add, *np.array(x).T)
[6, 15]
>>> # use ProcessPool's map and a lambda to apply the star
>>> pp.map(lambda x: add(*x), x)
[6, 15]
>>> # use a _ProcessPool, which has starmap
>>> _pp = pathos.pools._ProcessPool()
>>> _pp.starmap(add, x)
[6, 15]
>>> 

您可以使用以下两个函数，以避免为每个新函数编写包装器：

import itertools
from multiprocessing import Pool

def universal_worker(input_pair):
    function, args = input_pair
    return function(*args)

def pool_args(function, *args):
    return zip(itertools.repeat(function), zip(*args))

使用功能function与参数的清单arg_0，arg_1并arg_2如下：

pool = Pool(n_core)
list_model = pool.map(universal_worker, pool_args(function, arg_0, arg_1, arg_2)
pool.close()
pool.join()

python2的更好解决方案：

from multiprocessing import Pool
def func((i, (a, b))):
    print i, a, b
    return a + b
pool = Pool(3)
pool.map(func, [(0,(1,2)), (1,(2,3)), (2,(3, 4))])

2 3 4

1 2 3

0 1 2

出[]：

[3，5，7]

另一个简单的替代方法是将函数参数包装在一个元组中，然后再包装应该在元组中传递的参数。当处理大量数据时，这可能不是理想的。我相信它将为每个元组复制一份。

from multiprocessing import Pool

def f((a,b,c,d)):
    print a,b,c,d
    return a + b + c +d

if __name__ == '__main__':
    p = Pool(10)
    data = [(i+0,i+1,i+2,i+3) for i in xrange(10)]
    print(p.map(f, data))
    p.close()
    p.join()

以某种随机顺序给出输出：

0 1 2 3
1 2 3 4
2 3 4 5
3 4 5 6
4 5 6 7
5 6 7 8
7 8 9 10
6 7 8 9
8 9 10 11
9 10 11 12
[6, 10, 14, 18, 22, 26, 30, 34, 38, 42]

更好的方法是使用装饰器，而不是手动编写包装器函数。特别是当您有许多要映射的函数时，装饰器将避免为每个函数编写包装器，从而节省了时间。通常，装饰功能是不可选的，但是我们可以使用functools它来解决它。可以在这里找到更多讨论。

这里的例子

def unpack_args(func):
    from functools import wraps
    @wraps(func)
    def wrapper(args):
        if isinstance(args, dict):
            return func(**args)
        else:
            return func(*args)
    return wrapper

@unpack_args
def func(x, y):
    return x + y

然后，您可以使用压缩参数映射它

np, xlist, ylist = 2, range(10), range(10)
pool = Pool(np)
res = pool.map(func, zip(xlist, ylist))
pool.close()
pool.join()

当然，您可能总是Pool.starmap在Python 3（> = 3.3）中使用其他答案。

另一种方法是将列表的列表传递给一个参数的例程：

import os
from multiprocessing import Pool

def task(args):
    print "PID =", os.getpid(), ", arg1 =", args[0], ", arg2 =", args[1]

pool = Pool()

pool.map(task, [
        [1,2],
        [3,4],
        [5,6],
        [7,8]
    ])

然后，可以使用自己喜欢的方法构造一个参数列表。

这是另一种方法，即IMHO比提供的任何其他答案都更加简单和优雅。

该程序具有接受两个参数，将它们打印出来并打印和的功能：

import multiprocessing

def main():

    with multiprocessing.Pool(10) as pool:
        params = [ (2, 2), (3, 3), (4, 4) ]
        pool.starmap(printSum, params)
    # end with

# end function

def printSum(num1, num2):
    mySum = num1 + num2
    print('num1 = ' + str(num1) + ', num2 = ' + str(num2) + ', sum = ' + str(mySum))
# end function

if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

输出为：

num1 = 2, num2 = 2, sum = 4
num1 = 3, num2 = 3, sum = 6
num1 = 4, num2 = 4, sum = 8

有关更多信息，请参见python文档：

https://docs.python.org/3/library/multiprocessing.html#module-multiprocessing.pool

特别要确保检查出该starmap功能。

我使用的是Python 3.6，我不确定这是否适用于较旧的Python版本

我不确定为什么在文档中没有这样一个非常简单的示例。

从python 3.4.4开始，您可以使用multiprocessing.get_context（）获得上下文对象以使用多个启动方法：

import multiprocessing as mp

def foo(q, h, w):
    q.put(h + ' ' + w)
    print(h + ' ' + w)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    ctx = mp.get_context('spawn')
    q = ctx.Queue()
    p = ctx.Process(target=foo, args=(q,'hello', 'world'))
    p.start()
    print(q.get())
    p.join()

或者您只需替换

pool.map(harvester(text,case),case, 1)

通过：

pool.apply_async(harvester(text,case),case, 1)

这里有很多答案，但似乎没有一个提供可在任何版本上运行的Python 2/3兼容代码。如果您希望您的代码正常工作，则适用于以下任一Python版本：

# For python 2/3 compatibility, define pool context manager
# to support the 'with' statement in Python 2
if sys.version_info[0] == 2:
    from contextlib import contextmanager
    @contextmanager
    def multiprocessing_context(*args, **kwargs):
        pool = multiprocessing.Pool(*args, **kwargs)
        yield pool
        pool.terminate()
else:
    multiprocessing_context = multiprocessing.Pool

之后，您可以随意使用常规Python 3方式进行多处理。例如：

def _function_to_run_for_each(x):
       return x.lower()
with multiprocessing_context(processes=3) as pool:
    results = pool.map(_function_to_run_for_each, ['Bob', 'Sue', 'Tim'])    print(results)

将在Python 2或Python 3中工作。

在官方文档中声明它仅支持一个可迭代的参数。在这种情况下，我喜欢使用apply_async。在您的情况下，我会这样做：

from multiprocessing import Process, Pool, Manager

text = "test"
def harvester(text, case, q = None):
 X = case[0]
 res = text+ str(X)
 if q:
  q.put(res)
 return res


def block_until(q, results_queue, until_counter=0):
 i = 0
 while i < until_counter:
  results_queue.put(q.get())
  i+=1

if __name__ == '__main__':
 pool = multiprocessing.Pool(processes=6)
 case = RAW_DATASET
 m = Manager()
 q = m.Queue()
 results_queue = m.Queue() # when it completes results will reside in this queue
 blocking_process = Process(block_until, (q, results_queue, len(case)))
 blocking_process.start()
 for c in case:
  try:
   res = pool.apply_async(harvester, (text, case, q = None))
   res.get(timeout=0.1)
  except:
   pass
 blocking_process.join()

text = "test"

def unpack(args):
    return args[0](*args[1:])

def harvester(text, case):
    X = case[0]
    text+ str(X)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    pool = multiprocessing.Pool(processes=6)
    case = RAW_DATASET
    # args is a list of tuples 
    # with the function to execute as the first item in each tuple
    args = [(harvester, text, c) for c in case]
    # doing it this way, we can pass any function
    # and we don't need to define a wrapper for each different function
    # if we need to use more than one
    pool.map(unpack, args)
    pool.close()
    pool.join()

这是我用来将多个参数传递给pool.imap分支中使用的一个参数函数的例程的示例：

from multiprocessing import Pool

# Wrapper of the function to map:
class makefun:
    def __init__(self, var2):
        self.var2 = var2
    def fun(self, i):
        var2 = self.var2
        return var1[i] + var2

# Couple of variables for the example:
var1 = [1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8]
var2 = [9, 10, 11, 12]

# Open the pool:
pool = Pool(processes=2)

# Wrapper loop
for j in range(len(var2)):
    # Obtain the function to map
    pool_fun = makefun(var2[j]).fun

    # Fork loop
    for i, value in enumerate(pool.imap(pool_fun, range(len(var1))), 0):
        print(var1[i], '+' ,var2[j], '=', value)

# Close the pool
pool.close()

对于python2，您可以使用此技巧

def fun(a,b):
    return a+b

pool = multiprocessing.Pool(processes=6)
b=233
pool.map(lambda x:fun(x,b),range(1000))
