I have a Python script makes many async requests. The API I'm using takes a callback.
The main function calls run and I want it to block execution until all the requests have come back.
What could I use within Python 2.7 to achieve this?
def run():
for request in requests:
client.send_request(request, callback)
def callback(error, response):
# handle response
pass
def main():
run()
# I want to block here

I found that the simplest, least invasive way is to use threading.Event, available in 2.7.
import threading
import functools
def run():
events = []
for request in requests:
event = threading.Event()
callback_with_event = functools.partial(callback, event)
client.send_request(request, callback_with_ev
