New submission from Laurent Peuch <pyt...@worlddomination.be>:
asyncio.StreamReader documentation incorrectly declare its initialization argument "limit" to be "None" by default https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-stream.html#asyncio.StreamReader In the source code it is set to _DEFAULT_LIMIT https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/0afada163c7ef25c3a9d46ed445481fb69f2ecaf/Lib/asyncio/streams.py#L353 _DEFAULT_LIMIT is set to "2 ** 16 # 64 KiB" https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/0afada163c7ef25c3a9d46ed445481fb69f2ecaf/Lib/asyncio/streams.py#L19 This information is especially needed when you get the exception "asyncio.streams.LimitOverrunError: Separator is not found, and chunk exceed the limit" and want to increase the limit, but you don't have the initial value and you have to look at the source code to get it. PS: this is my first ticket, I don't know if I should have open one for such a minor detail in the documentation ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation, asyncio messages: 324873 nosy: asvetlov, docs@python, psycojoker, yselivanov priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: asyncio.StreamReader initialization documentation incorrectly declare limit as None type: enhancement versions: Python 3.5, Python 3.6, Python 3.7, Python 3.8 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue34613> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
