If this works for such a big and elaborate framework as SQLA, we can definitely highlight this as a valid approach and even add a link to a blog post from the docs. We'll need to add an asyncio specific FAQ page for that or something similar. Another approach, which would probably be a nonstarter for SQLA, is to use async/await for literally everything internally, and provide a tiny synchronous facade on top. Funny thing you don't even need an event loop for that, just the basic understanding of how coroutines work internally. I used this to create the edgedb-python package which has both sync and async first-class support with one code base. Sync is even faster there in simple throughput benchmarks (as expected). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue22239> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
