You don't show a complete working example, so it's hard to know the
context of this.
What is the purpose of this function? Why is it performing these last
two lines at all?
Surely this function should be called by an *external* loop of the
actual processing, with no recursion, and no enforced delay.
import time
class ProgressBar(object):
""" Display of progress as a horizontal bar """
update_frequency = 0.1
def __init__(self, window):
self.window = window
self._prev_increment_time = 0
def increment(self, workorder):
""" Increment the progress display """
# ... code to unconditionally update the display
self._prev_update_time = time.time()
def update(self, workorder):
""" Update the progress if necessary """
time_since_update = time.time() - self._prev_update_time
if time_since_update >= self.update_frequency:
self.increment(workorder)
window = however_you_make_a_window()
bar = ProgressBar(window)
for foo in iterator_of_foos:
workorder = do_the_processing(foo)
bar.update(workorder)
