Hi everyone,

I am trying to send a channels message from a django signal. The problem 
ist that the signal function is not async. So I tried to use the 
AsyncToSync wrapper.
But it seems this is not possible as the signal handler is run by a thread 
and has no event loop.

...
    self.main_event_loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
  File "/usr/lib/python3.5/asyncio/events.py", line 632, in get_event_loop
    return get_event_loop_policy().get_event_loop()
  File "/usr/lib/python3.5/asyncio/events.py", line 578, in get_event_loop
    % threading.current_thread().name)
RuntimeError: There is no current event loop in thread 'Thread-2'.

So I tried to create the AsyncToSync inside the app.py as this gets 
executed by the main thread. By passing this instance I tried to execute 
the wrapper inside
the signal handler. But this also doesn't work and the website is stuck 
loading. How can I get around this issue?
