# kernel.mapper

## Module: `kernel.mapper`

Inheritance diagram for `IPython.kernel.mapper`:

A parallelized version of Python’s builtin map.

## Classes

### `IMapper`

class `IPython.kernel.mapper.` `IMapper`(name, bases=(), attrs=None, __doc__=None, __module__=None)

  Bases: `zope.interface.Interface`

  The basic interface for a Mapper.

  This defines a generic interface for mapping. The idea of this is similar to that of Python’s builtin map function, which applies a function elementwise to a sequence.

  classmethod `__init__`()
  `dependents` = <WeakKeyDictionary at 162832112>

### `IMultiEngineMapperFactory`

class `IPython.kernel.mapper.` `IMultiEngineMapperFactory`(name, bases=(), attrs=None, __doc__=None, __module__=None)

  Bases: `zope.interface.Interface`

  An interface for something that creates IMapper instances.

  classmethod `__init__`()
  `dependents` = <WeakKeyDictionary at 162828728>

### `ITaskMapperFactory`

class `IPython.kernel.mapper.` `ITaskMapperFactory`(name, bases=(), attrs=None, __doc__=None, __module__=None)

  Bases: `zope.interface.Interface`

  An interface for something that creates IMapper instances.

  classmethod `__init__`()
  `dependents` = <WeakKeyDictionary at 162830240>

### `MultiEngineMapper`

class `IPython.kernel.mapper.` `MultiEngineMapper`(multiengine, dist='b', targets='all', block=True)

  Bases: `object`

  A Mapper for IMultiEngine implementers.

  `__init__`()

    Create a Mapper for a multiengine.

    The value of all arguments are used for all calls to map. This class allows these arguemnts to be set for a series of map calls.

    Parameters : | multiengine : IMultiEngine implementer The multiengine to use for running the map commands dist : str The type of decomposition to use. Only block (‘b’) is supported currently targets : (str, int, tuple of ints) The engines to use in the map block : boolean Whether to block when the map is applied

  `map`()

    Apply func to *sequences elementwise. Like Python’s builtin map.

    This version is not load balanced.

### `SynchronousTaskMapper`

class `IPython.kernel.mapper.` `SynchronousTaskMapper`(task_controller, clear_before=False, clear_after=False, retries=0, recovery_task=None, depend=None, block=True)

  Bases: `object`

  Make an IBlockingTaskClient look like an IMapper.

  This class provides a load balanced version of map.

  `__init__`()

    Create a IMapper given a IBlockingTaskClient and arguments.

    The additional arguments are those that are common to all types of tasks and are described in the documentation for IPython.kernel.task.BaseTask.

    Parameters : | task_controller : an IBlockingTaskClient implementer The TaskController to use for calls to map

  `map`()

    Apply func to *sequences elementwise. Like Python’s builtin map.

    This version is load balanced.

### `TaskMapper`

class `IPython.kernel.mapper.` `TaskMapper`(task_controller, clear_before=False, clear_after=False, retries=0, recovery_task=None, depend=None, block=True)

  Bases: `object`

  Make an ITaskController look like an IMapper.

  This class provides a load balanced version of map.

  `__init__`()

    Create a IMapper given a TaskController and arguments.

    The additional arguments are those that are common to all types of tasks and are described in the documentation for IPython.kernel.task.BaseTask.

    Parameters : | task_controller : an IBlockingTaskClient implementer The TaskController to use for calls to map

  `map`()

    Apply func to *sequences elementwise. Like Python’s builtin map.

    This version is load balanced.
