s3m

Using with statement

The Connection (as well as Cursor) object supports the with statement. It acquires the locks which will result either in the current thread waiting for other threads or making other threads wait until the current thread exits the with block.

conn = s3m.connect("database.db", ...)
...

with conn: # This blocks other threads
    conn.execute(<something>)
    conn.execute(<something else>)

# The other threads are no longer blocked
