One of the big problems I've seen with the basic approachability of async/await in Python is the lack of interpreter support.
You might want to have a look at aioconsole [1]; it provides an asynchronous REPL that you can use to interact with asyncio servers.
You can try it out using the apython script: $ apython Python 3.5.0 (default, Sep 7 2015, 14:12:03) [GCC 4.8.4] on linux Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. --- This console is running in an asyncio event loop. It allows you to wait for coroutines using the 'await' syntax. Try: await asyncio.sleep(1, result=3) --- >>> await asyncio.sleep(1, result=3) # Wait one second... 3 >>> There is also two ipython extensions: - ipython-yf [2] - asyncio-ipython-magic [3] [1] https://github.com/vxgmichel/aioconsole [2] https://github.com/tecki/ipython-yf [3] https://github.com/Gr1N/asyncio-ipython-magic Cheers, /Vincent _______________________________________________ Async-sig mailing list Async-sig@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/async-sig Code of Conduct: https://www.python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
