STINNER Victor added the comment: Subprocess support of asyncio has nice features and is efficient:
- async read from stdout and stderr - async write into stdin - async wait for the process exit - async communicate() - timeout on any async operation - support running multiple child processes in parallel - epoll, kqueue, devpoll or IOCP selector - On POSIX, fast child watcher waiting for SIGCHLD signal If possible, I would prefer to not write a second "async subprocess". It's possible to write a blocking API on top of asyncio using loop.run_until_complete(). sync_proc_asyncio.py: incomplete proof-of-concept (no working select() method). ---------- Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file38123/sync_proc_asyncio.py _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17986> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
