Maybe you should post some of the Perl code, in small pieces. Then we
can suggest ways those poarticular things might be done in Python.
Python threads really easily (with some limitations, but for many purposes
those limitations are irrelevant).
When I have a situation like yours seems to be, I tend to write a few
different items, connected together with a main program. Write modules
that define a class for the things you need to talk to: the database,
the sensors, etc. From the main program, create an instance of the
relevant classes, then dispatch threads doing what needs to be done.
The main program might be shaped like this:
import db_module # use a better name
# defines a class called "DB" to talk to a
# database
import sensors_module # use a better name
# defines a class called "Sensors" to report
# sensor values
def thread_function(db, sensors):
... do something that should happen in a thread ...
# get some objects to connect to db and sensors
db = db_module.DB(connection-info-here...)
sensors = sensors_module.Sensors(sensor-connection-info-here...)
# set up a Thread and start it
T = Thread(target=thread_function, args=(db, sensors))
T.start()
... create other threads as needed ...
You see here that:
- the modules do not know _specifics_ about the db or sensors;
they are told connection info
- instantiating a class instance:
db = db_module.DB(connection-info-here...)
passes the specifics
- you get back a class instance
- you pass those instances (db, sensors) to the thread_function;
it uses them to access database and sensors
So you see that the modules do not directly share information with each
other. The main program gets objects from each module and hands them to
whoever needs to work with them.
Does this clarify your namespace issues?
