AsyncInteractiveShell

Bases: InteractiveShell

An IPython InteractiveShell adapted to work with Async kernel.

Notable differences
  • All execute requests are run asynchronously.
  • Supports a soft timeout specified via tags timeout=<value in seconds>1.
  • Gui event loops(tk, qt, ...) are not presently supported.
  • Not all features are support (see "not-supported" features listed below).
  • user_ns and user_global_ns are same dictionary which is a fixed LastUpdatedDict.

  1. When the execution time exceeds the timeout value, the code execution will "move on".

AsyncInteractiveSubshell

Bases: AsyncInteractiveShell

An asynchronous interactive subshell for managing isolated execution contexts within an async kernel.

Each subshell has a unique user_ns, but shares its user_global_ns with the main shell (which is also the user_ns of the main shell).

Call subshell.stop(force=True) to stop a protected subshell when it is no longer required.

Attributes:

  • stopped

    Indicates whether the subshell has been stopped.

  • protected

    If True, prevents the subshell from being stopped unless forced.

  • pending_manager

    Tracks pending started in the context of the subshell.

  • subshell_id (Fixed[Self, str]) –

    Unique identifier for the subshell.

Methods:

  • stop

    Stops the subshell, deactivating pending operations and removing it from the manager.
