class Thread(group=None, target=None, name=None, args=(), kwargs=None, *, daemon=None, context=None)#

Bases: Thread

This constructor should always be called with keyword arguments. Arguments are:

group should be None; reserved for future extension when a ThreadGroup class is implemented.

target is the callable object to be invoked by the run() method. Defaults to None, meaning nothing is called.

name is the thread name. By default, a unique name is constructed of the form “Thread-N” where N is a small decimal number.

args is a list or tuple of arguments for the target invocation. Defaults to ().

kwargs is a dictionary of keyword arguments for the target invocation. Defaults to {}.

context is the contextvars.Context value to use for the thread. The default value is None, which means to check sys.flags.thread_inherit_context. If that flag is true, use a copy of the context of the caller. If false, use an empty context. To explicitly start with an empty context, pass a new instance of contextvars.Context(). To explicitly start with a copy of the current context, pass the value from contextvars.copy_context().

If a subclass overrides the constructor, it must make sure to invoke the base class constructor (Thread.__init__()) before doing anything else to the thread.

raise_exc(exctype)#: raises the given exception type in the context of this thread

terminate()#: raises SystemExit in the context of the given thread, which should cause the thread to exit silently (unless caught)
