Answer a question

Am attempting a tqdm progress bar with asyncio tasks gathered.

Want the progress bar to be progressively updated upon completion of a task. Tried the code:

import asyncio
import tqdm
import random

async def factorial(name, number):
    f = 1
    for i in range(2, number+1):
        await asyncio.sleep(random.random())
        f *= i
    print(f"Task {name}: factorial {number} = {f}")

async def tq(flen):
    for _ in tqdm.tqdm(range(flen)):
        await asyncio.sleep(0.1)

async def main():
    # Schedule the three concurrently

    flist = [factorial("A", 2),
        factorial("B", 3),
        factorial("C", 4)]

    await asyncio.gather(*flist, tq(len(flist)))

asyncio.run(main())

...but this simply completes the tqdm bar and then processes factorials.

Is there a way to make the progress bar move upon completion of each asyncio task?

Made a couple of small changes to Dragos' code in pbar format and used tqdm.write() to get almost what I want, as follows:

import asyncio
import random

import tqdm


async def factorial(name, number):
    f = 1
    for i in range(2, number + 1):
        await asyncio.sleep(random.random())
        f *= i
    return f"Task {name}: factorial {number} = {f}"

async def tq(flen):
    for _ in tqdm.tqdm(range(flen)):
        await asyncio.sleep(0.1)


async def main():

    flist = [factorial("A", 2),
             factorial("B", 3),
             factorial("C", 4)]

    pbar = tqdm.tqdm(total=len(flist), position=0, ncols=90)
    for f in asyncio.as_completed(flist):
        value = await f
        pbar.set_description(desc=value, refresh=True)
        tqdm.tqdm.write(value)
        pbar.update()

if __name__ == '__main__':
    asyncio.run(main())
