Can I raise a signal from python?

The topic basically tells what I want to to.

I read the documentation, which tells me how to handle signals but not how I can do signalling by myself.

Thanks!

How do you send a signal in Python?

Send the signal signalnum to the thread thread_id, another thread in the same process as the caller. The target thread can be executing any code (Python or not). However, if the target thread is executing the Python interpreter, the Python signal handlers will be executed by the main thread of the main interpreter.

Directly with the signal package (new in version 3.8). For instance:

import signal
signal.raise_signal( signal.SIGINT )

Reference: https://docs.python.org/3/library/signal.html#signal.raise_signal
