Rewrite main.py

[max-rocket-internet]

If you're not super familiar with the project then main.py is very hard to read 🙂

There's so many conditions, places where the flow stops (or does not stop depending on more conditions), function definitions and logic is all mixed together.

I think it could be improved somewhat?

(I'm not volunteering 😅)

Totally agree, but we need a volunteer :)

Well it's good to have an issue at least to start with 🙏

Thanks for maintaining Locust @cyberw. It's useful to my work so much that I would be delighted to help.

Often times when I need browse the main.py, I feel the same pain. What ideas do you have? @max-rocket-internet @cyberw

I would also like to improve stats.py file. I've created a issue here

What ideas do you have? @max-rocket-internet

It's just a long series of conditions so I think perhaps split it into multiple files, parts or functions that correspond to each function? Like perhaps separation of each "mode", like:

• Running as master
• Running as worker
• Headless
• etc

Just an idea 🙂
