aio-executor

A concurrent.futures.Executor implementation that runs asynchronous tasks in an asyncio loop.

Example usage:

from aio_executor import AioExecutor

async def my_async_function(arg):
    # ...

with AioExecutor() as aioexec:
    # single invocation
    f = aioexec.submit(my_async_function, 'foo')
    result = f.result()

    # multiple concurrent invocations using "map"
    results = aioexec.map(my_async_function, ['foo', 'bar', 'baz'])

As a convenience, a run_with_asyncio decorator is also provided. This decorator runs the decorated async function in a AioExecutor instance.

The example below shows how to implement an async view function for the Flask framework using this decorator:

@app.route('/')
@run_with_asyncio
async def index():
    return await get_random_quote()

How to Install

pip install aio-executor
