Method Details

### __init__(self, maxsize=0) (Constructor) Initialize a queue object with a given maximum size. If maxsize is <= 0, the queue size is infinite.

### empty(self) Return 1 if the queue is empty, 0 otherwise (not reliable!).

### full(self) Return 1 if the queue is full, 0 otherwise (not reliable!).

### get(self, block=1) Remove and return an item from the queue. If optional arg 'block' is 1 (the default), block if necessary until an item is available. Otherwise (block is 0), return an item if one is immediately available, else raise the Empty exception.

### get_nowait(self) Remove and return an item from the queue without blocking. Only get an item if one is immediately available. Otherwise raise the Empty exception.

### put(self, item, block=1) Put an item into the queue. If optional arg 'block' is 1 (the default), block if necessary until a free slot is available. Otherwise (block is 0), put an item on the queue if a free slot is immediately available, else raise the Full exception.

### put_nowait(self, item) Put an item into the queue without blocking. Only enqueue the item if a free slot is immediately available. Otherwise raise the Full exception.

### qsize(self) Return the approximate size of the queue (not reliable!).
