I was also thinking: there are some decorator functions (and decorator functions factories) also in the stdlib (functools.wrap, property, classmethod ... you name it) so this means that also we need to check each of them if is applyable to async functions? -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

transform a "normal" decorator in one for async functions
Hi.
Let's say I have this library that expose a decorator; it's meant to be used
with normal functions.
but I have to "apply" the decorator to an async function.

>function, as it's not really "async", and, from a simple test I made, I see

import asyncio
def deco(fun): # the "classic" decorator
def wrap(*args, **kwargs):
print('wrap begin')
try:
return fun(*args, **kwargs)
finally:
print('wrap end')
return wrap
@deco
async def decorated_async():
print('a')
await asyncio.sleep(1)
print('b')
loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
loop.run_until_complete(decorated_async())
loop.close()
the output of this script is
wrap begin
wrap end
a
b
while an "async-aware" decorator (with an "async" wrap that "await"s the fun
call) would print the "wrap end" line at the end.
I can easily rewrite my dumb decorator to handle async functions (I can just
make an "async def wrap" and "return await fun"), but I cannot rewrite this
library.
is there a way to "convert" a "normal" decorator in one that can handle async
functions?
Thanks
