PyPrind

The PyPrind (Python Progress Indicator) module provides a progress bar and a percentage indicator
object that let you track the progress of a loop structure or other iterative computation.
Typical applications include the processing of large data sets to provide an intuitive estimate at runtime about the progress of the computation.

I am really looking forward to your comments and suggestions to improve and extend this module! Just send me a quick note via Twitter: [@rasbt](https://twitter.com/rasbt) or Email: [se.raschka@gmail.com](mailto:bluewoodtree@gmail.com)

The pyprind module can be found on GitHub at https://github.com/rasbt/pyprind

####Sections

Installation ============= You can use the following command to install PyPrind: `pip install pyprind` or `easy_install pyprind`

Alternatively, you download the package manually from the Python Package Index https://pypi.python.org/pypi/PyPrind, unzip it, navigate into the package, and use the command:

python setup.py install
or
python3 setup.py install

Documentation ============= PyPrind consists of two class objects that can visualize the progress of a computation on the output screen. Progress bars are visualized via a `ProgBar()` object, and alternatively, the progress can be tracked and shown as percentage via a `ProgPercent()` object.

The general usage of ProgBar() and ProgPercent() consists of 2 basic steps:

initialize a new ProgBar() or ProgPercent() object with the number of iterations of the computation that is to be performed
update the ProgBar() or ProgPercent() object for each iteration via the .update() method

n = 10000000
my_prbar = pyprind.ProgBar(n)   # 1) initialization with number of iterations
for i in range(n):	
    # do some computation
    my_prbar.update()           # 2) update the progress visualization

Optional parameters : --------------------------

Default Parameters

class ProgBar(Prog):
<span style="color: #DD4422">&quot;&quot;&quot;</span>

    Initializes a progress bar object that allows visuzalization
    of an iterational computation in the standard output screen. 
    Keyword Arguments:
        iterations (int): number of iterations of the computation
        track_time (bool): default True. Prints elapsed time when loop has finished
        width (int): default 30. Sets the progress bar width in characters.
        stream (int): default 2. Takes 1 for stdout, 2 for stderr, or given stream object
        title (str): default ''. A title for the progress bar
        monitor (bool): default False. Monitors CPU and memory usage if True 
            (requires 'psutil' package).
    """

class ProgPercent(Prog):
<span style="color: #DD4422">&quot;&quot;&quot;</span>

    Initializes a percentage indicator object that allows visuzalization
    of an iterational computation in the standard output screen. 
    Keyword Arguments:
        iterations (int): number of iterations of the computation
        track_time (bool): default True. Prints elapsed time when loop has finished
        stream (int): default 2. Takes 1 for stdout, 2 for stderr, or given stream object
        title (str): default ''. A title for the progress bar
        monitor (bool): default False. Monitors CPU and memory usage if True 
            (requires 'psutil' package).
    """

    def update(self, iterations=1):
    <span style="color: #DD4422">&quot;&quot;&quot;</span>

        Updates the progress bar in every iteration of the task.
        Keyword arguments:
            iterations (int): default argument can be changed to integer values
                >=1 in order to update the progress indicators more than once 
                per iteration.
        """

Setting the width of the progress bar

my_prog = pyprind.ProgBar(n, width=70) # default = 50

Set whether CPU time should be reported or not

The optional track_time parameter can be set for both ProgBar() and ProgPercent() objects.

my_prbar = pyprind.ProgBar(n, track_time=False) # default = True
my_perc = pyprind.ProgPercent(n, track_time=False) # default = True

ProgBar objects will print the estimated time left and the total time
when the computation has finished.
ProgPercent objects reports the elapsed time during the computation and prints
the estimated finish time of the loop.

Selecting an output stream

By default, pyprind objects writes output to the Standard error stream (stderr). If you
want to direct the output to the Standard output (stdout), you can initialize pyprind with the argument stream=2.

my_prbar = pyprind.ProgBar(n, stream=1) # writes to stdout
my_prbar = pyprind.ProgBar(n, stream=2) # writes to stderr, default

You can also just use a given stream by passing it directly:
Example:

my_prbar = pyprind.ProgBar(n, stream=self.stdout)  # writes to given stream

##### Giving a tracking object a title If a tracking object is initialized with a title, it is printed when a new tracking object is initialized. The title and elapsed time can be printed via the `print()` function after the tracking has finished.

my_prbar = pyprind.ProgBar(n, title='My Progress Bar')

Screen output:
My Progress Bar
0%                          100%
[##############################] | ETA[sec]: 0.000

##### Printing a tracking object The `print()` function can be invoked after the tracking is completed to print the title and elapsed time to the screen.

n = 1000000
    my_bar = pyprind.ProgBar(n, title='My Progress Bar')
    for i in range(n):
        # do some computation
        my_bar.update()
    print('\n\nPrint tracking object ...\n')
    print(my_bar)

Screen output:

My Progress Bar
0%                          100%
[##############################] | ETA[sec]: 0.000 
Total time elapsed: 6.399 sec
Title: My Progress Bar
                      Started: 04/18/2014 19:12:07
                      Finished: 04/18/2014 19:12:14
                      Total time elapsed: 6.399 sec

##### Printing a tracking object with CPU and memory usage If we additionally want to `print()` the CPU and memory usage after a run has completed, we have to set the `monitor` argument to `True` when we initialize a new tracking object. (Note: the `monitor` mode requires the `psutil` package.)

n = 1000000
    my_bar = pyprind.ProgBar(n, title='My Progress Bar', monitor=True)
    for i in range(n):
        # do some computation
        my_bar.update()
    print('\n\nPrint tracking object ...\n')
    print(my_bar)

Screen output:

My Progress Bar
0%                          100%

                      Memory %: 0.098133

Small note on usage in a custom Django management command.

Django gives you a stdout object on the BaseCommand class. You will need to pass this to pyprind as done above. Also note that by default, Django appends a newline to every write. This uglyfies pyprind output, so ensure the write function gets passed ending="". pyprind will NOT do this for you.

The following examples shall illustrate the typical usage of the PyPrind package.
