Does this tool have threading for faster process? #27

Closed cr4shcod3 closed 6 years ago

cr4shcod3 commented 6 years ago

I don't know if there's threading in this tool but it seems like the process is slow. Is it normal?

ThoughtfulDev commented 6 years ago

No threading. Only one instance of FF is open at a time, since some processes depend on each other.

What seems slow?

cr4shcod3 commented 6 years ago

The process like finding image and the reverse image search part. I hope you can find a way to add threading or threading argument in argparse

ThoughtfulDev commented 6 years ago

The problem is that I use one list for storing the images and scraped links.

Using threading would mean that each thread would have its own list which have to be unified at the end (or one global list which has to be thread save).

Practically I doubt that using threads would speed up the process. You can always try to implement threading. Pull requests are welcome :smiley:

Ok I will try to implement threading on this. Later after I publish the v2 of my tool too. You can now close this
