Caution, this is a 0.x.y version, the public interfaces might break at any time.

Sweetasync

A collection of simple functions, decorators and classes to make your asynchronous python code sweeter.

• only compatible with 3.5.2+ and 3.6+
• use Semantic Versioning
• the documentation is extracted with sphinx from the source's docstrings: sphinx-build ./ doc
• to run the test suite, use (adapt accordingly to your installation of python): python3.6 setup.py test

Features

• remove the boilerplate that comes with setting up and using an event loop with the aiorunner context manager and the @sync decorator for async functions; they also clean up after an exception happens so you don't get useless warnings about an unclosed event loop and the like
• easily communicate between coroutines or between coroutines and threads with the Channel and BufferedChannel classes; they can be used as async iterators from coroutines and blocking iterators from threads
• receive data from multiple channels with a Bundle by iterating on it
• dispatch events to callbacks and async functions with EventEmitter; it even handles backpressure and errors
• make your code sweeter with these small functions: aiter, asyncify, and as_await
• implement synchronization primitives with waiter (such as channels!)
