Class - PrepareTask

class openfl.utilities.fed_timer.PrepareTask(target_fn, timeout, args, kwargs)

Bases: object

PrepareTask class stores the decorated function metadata and instantiates either the asyncio or thread tasks to handle asynchronous and synchronous execution of the decorated function respectively.

Attributes: target (function): decorated function timeout (int): Timeout duration in second(s). *args (tuple): Arguments passed as a parameter to decorated function. **kwargs (dict): Keyword arguments passed as a parameter to decorated function.

__init__(target_fn, timeout, args, kwargs)

Initialize a PrepareTask object.

Parameters:

• target_fn (function) – The function to be executed.

• timeout (int) – The maximum time to allow for the function’s execution.

• args (tuple) – The positional arguments to pass to the function.

• kwargs (dict) – The keyword arguments to pass to the function.

Return type:

None

Methods

__init__(target_fn, timeout, args, kwargs)	Initialize a PrepareTask object.
async_execute()	Execute the task asynchronously of the decorated function referenced by self._target_fn.
sync_execute()	Handles synchronous execution of the decorated function referenced by self._target_fn.

async async_execute()

Execute the task asynchronously of the decorated function referenced by self._target_fn.

Raises:

• asyncio.TimeoutError – If the execution exceeds the maximum time.

• Exception – If any other error occurs during execution.

Returns:

The result of the function’s execution.

The returned value from task.results() depends on the decorated function.

Return type:

Any

sync_execute()

Handles synchronous execution of the decorated function referenced by self._target_fn.

Raises:

TimeoutError – If the execution exceeds the maximum time.

Returns:

The returned value from task.results() depends on the decorated function.

Return type:

Any
