【问题标题】:Google Storage python api download in parallel谷歌存储python api并行下载
【发布时间】:2018-07-24 22:36:42
【问题描述】:

通过添加-m 标志,使用gsutil 将大量文件并行下载到本地计算机是微不足道的:

gsutil -m cp gs://my-bucket/blob_prefix* .

在python中,我一次只能下载一个文件:

client = storage.Client()
bucket = client.get_bucket(gs_bucket_name)
blobs = [blob for blob in bucket.list_blobs(prefix=blob_prefix)]
for blob in blobs:
    blob.download_to_filename(filename)

我最好将数据直接下载到内存中(类似于blob.download_as_string()),最好下载到生成器中。顺序并不重要。

此功能是否存在于 python api 中的某处?
如果没有,最好的方法是什么?

我已经实现了这个 hack:

def fetch_data_from_storage(fetch_pattern):
    """Download blobs to local first, then load them into Generator."""
    tmp_save_dir = os.path.join("/tmp", "tmp_gs_download")
    if os.path.isdir(tmp_save_dir):
        shutil.rmtree(tmp_save_dir)  # empty tmp dir first
    os.makedirs(tmp_save_dir)  # create tmp dir

    download_command = ["gsutil", "-m", "cp", "gs://{}/{}".format(bucket.name, fetch_pattern), tmp_save_dir]
    resp = subprocess.call(download_command)

    for file in os.listdir(tmp_save_dir):
        with open(os.path.join(tmp_save_dir, file), 'r') as f_data:
            content = json.load(f_data)
            yield content

请告知这是否在某处以更好的方式实施。

    【解决方案1】:

    好的,这是我的多处理、多线程解决方案。以下是它的工作原理:

    • 1) 使用 subprocess 和 gsutil ls -l pattern 获取 blob 名称列表及其文件大小。这是__main__中输入的模式
    • 2) 根据最大​​批量大小创建批量 Blob 名称。默认为 1MB。一个大文件将创建一批 1。
    • 3) 每个批次都发送到不同的进程。默认进程 = cpu_count - 2
    • 4) 每个进程中的每个批次都是多线程的(默认最大线程数 = 10)在下一个批次开始之前需要完成一个批次的线程。
    • 5) 每个线程下载单个 blob 并将其与其元数据组合。
    • 6) 结果通过共享资源和内存分配向上传播。

    我写这篇文章的原因:

    • 我还需要使用 gsutil 丢失的元数据(关键)
    • 如果某些部分失败(次要),我想要一些重试控制

    这仍然可以使用相当多的优化(例如排队线程而不是等待块完成),但这对我来说已经足够了。

    【讨论】:

    • 这是否仍然依赖 gsutil,如果是这样,可以简单地使用 -m 标志进行并行化。我也希望使用 python 客户端并行化复制操作,但到目前为止没有运气
    • @Roman,这仍然是最好的解决方案吗? gcloud-aio-storage 包是否提供任何好处来替换它?
    • @mrp 我不知道,但我真的希望这仍然不是最好的方法。如果您确实尝试了它(并且它按预期工作),如果您还对该库、gsutil 和我在上面发布的 python 解决方案进行速度比较,那将很有帮助。
    • @Roman,我最初在让它工作时遇到了一些麻烦,但我发现这并不能提高下载速度。我所有的文件都是 500mb,所以这可能是小文件的有效解决方案,但对于大文件可能不是。我仍然无法让gcloud-aio-storage 包工作,尽管有人为我的问题发布了一些帮助。我还注意到gsutil -m cp 对我没有帮助。因此,大文件的互联网速度可能会下降。
    • 啊,是的,很好。这个解决方案(和gsutil -m cp)下载多线程和多进程——换句话说,并行下载。如果您有一个大文件,那么您将看不到任何速度提升。
    【解决方案2】:

    检查 Google Cloud Storage [1] 的 Python 客户端库我可以得出结论,没有直接的方法可以并行下载多个文件。

    我通常使用客户端库(即一次一个文件)运行一些测试并使用os.system 传递gsutil 命令来检查时间差异,并且使用os.system 执行此操作要快得多(在至少对于小文件)。你能告诉我它是怎么做的吗?这是我使用的代码(相当简单):

    from google.cloud import storage
    import time
    import os
    start_time = time.time()
    
    download_command = "gsutil -m cp gs://<bucket>/* . "
    os.system(download_command)
    elapsed_time = time.time() - start_time
    print(elapsed_time)
    

    我代表您为此提交了功能请求,您可以在此处跟踪它[2]

    【讨论】:

    • 感谢功能请求。在我的例子中,首先使用gsutl -m 下载文件,然后将它们加载到生成器中并迭代,与blob.download_as_string() 相比,它的速度提高了 10-20 倍,并且一次运行一个。
