Proc-Forkmap
This module supplies an easy to use map method that provides built-in forking and IPC.
EXAMPLES:
sub foo {
my ($x,$n) = (shift,1);
$n *= $_ for (@$x);
say $n;
}
@x = ([1..99],[100..199],[200..299]);
my $p = Proc::Forkmap->new;
$p->fmap(\&foo,@x);
or,
#get stuff from the intertubes
sub bar {
my $t = shift;
my $s = Stock::Price->new;
... get historical stock prices ...
... do some analysis ...
baz($t,$sell_price);
}
#then save stuff to a data store
sub baz {
my ($t,$price) = @_;
my $conn = MongoDB::Connection->new;
my $db = $conn->stock;
my $bayes = $db->bayes;
$bayes->insert({symbol => $t, price => $price});
$conn->disconnect;
}
my $p = Proc::Forkmap->new(max_kids => 4);
$p->fmap(\&bar,qw/rht goog ^ixic ^dji yhoo aapl/);
