# Using `asyncio-taskpool`
## Minimal example for `SimpleTaskPool`
The minimum required setup is a "worker" coroutine function that can do something asynchronously, a main coroutine function that sets up the `SimpleTaskPool` and starts/stops the tasks as desired, eventually awaiting them all.
The following demo code enables full log output first for additional clarity. It is complete and should work as is.
### Code
```python
import logging
import asyncio
from asyncio_taskpool.pool import SimpleTaskPool
logging.getLogger().setLevel(logging.NOTSET)
logging.getLogger('asyncio_taskpool').addHandler(logging.StreamHandler())
async def work(n: int) -> None:
"""
Pseudo-worker function.
Counts up to an integer with a second of sleep before each iteration.
In a real-world use case, a worker function should probably have access
to some synchronisation primitive or shared resource to distribute work
between an arbitrary number of workers.
"""
for i in range(n):
await asyncio.sleep(1)
print("did", i)
async def main() -> None:
pool = SimpleTaskPool(work, (5,)) # initializes the pool; no work is being done yet
await pool.start(3) # launches work tasks 0, 1, and 2
await asyncio.sleep(1.5) # lets the tasks work for a bit
await pool.start() # launches work task 3
await asyncio.sleep(1.5) # lets the tasks work for a bit
pool.stop(2) # cancels tasks 3 and 2
pool.close() # required for the last line
await pool.gather() # awaits all tasks, then flushes the pool
if __name__ == '__main__':
asyncio.run(main())
```
### Output
```
