Method acquire

Try to acquire the file lock. :param timeout: maximum wait time for acquiring the lock, ``None`` means use the default :attr:`~BaseFileLock.timeout` is and if ``timeout < 0``, there is no timeout and this method will block until the lock could be acquired

        Try to acquire the file lock.

        :param timeout: maximum wait time for acquiring the lock, ``None`` means use the default
            :attr:`~BaseFileLock.timeout` is and if ``timeout < 0``, there is no timeout and this method will block
            until the lock could be acquired
        :param poll_interval: interval of trying to acquire the lock file, ``None`` means use the default
            :attr:`~BaseFileLock.poll_interval`
        :param blocking: defaults to True. If False, function will return immediately if it cannot obtain a lock on the
            first attempt. Otherwise, this method will block until the timeout expires or the lock is acquired.
        :param cancel_check: a callable returning ``True`` when the acquisition should be canceled. Checked on each poll
            iteration. When triggered, raises :class:`~Timeout` just like an expired timeout.

        :returns: a context object that will unlock the file when the context is exited

        :raises Timeout: if fails to acquire lock within the timeout period
