input interrupt - Nickd12 - Dec-07-2020
how can i get this to just interrupt the input and continue down the while true loop. instead if there is no input after 3 seconds it end the program.
class FiveSec(threading.Thread):
def restart(self):
self.my_timer = time.time() + 3
def run(self, *args):
self.restart()
while 1:
time.sleep(0.1)
if time.time() >= self.my_timer:
break
os.kill(os.getpid(), signal.SIGINT)
def main():
try:
t = FiveSec()
t.daemon = True
t.start()
x = input('::> ')
return x
except KeyboardInterrupt:
print("\nDone!")
while True:
if "hi" in main():
print("hi")
print("hello")
x = 2+2
print(x)

Here is a solution I wrote two years ago. I hope it helps
import selectors
import sys
def main():
sel = selectors.DefaultSelector()
sel.register(sys.stdin, selectors.EVENT_READ)
print("Enter passcode: ", end='')
sys.stdout.flush()
pairs = sel.select(timeout=5)
if pairs:
passcode = sys.stdin.readline().strip()
print('you entered:', passcode)
else:
print('\ntimed out')
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
