Lifetime of the instance and thread safety

[eight04]

It seems that we should initiate one plugin instance for one mission (one URL) and get_chapters/get_meta should only be called once.

Can you call get_chapters_files in parallel?

Can you call get_chapters_files in parallel?

Yes

from threading import Thread

provider = ...

chapters = provider.get_chapters() # iterable yeld


chapters = []
threads = []

def _iterate(chapter: Chapter):
    pass

for ch in chapters:
    thread = Thread(target=_iterate, args=(ch,))
    thread.join()
    threads.append(thread)

for thread in threads:
    thread.start()

The same thing will happen with images
Providers will not handle image processing on their own.

You can not worry about this.
If you need to skip a few chapters, you can skip the _iterate call where it is not required

As for the images - I will think about what can be done with this. thanks
