unblock

unblock comes with utilities that can be used to convert synchronous functions to async for use in event loop. For documentation, refer here

Here is a quick example,

import asyncio
from unblock import asyncify
   
@asyncify
def my_sync_func():
   #do something

if __name__ == "__main__":
   asyncio.run(my_sync_func())

Release Notes:

0.0.1

Features,

• Convert your synchronous functions, methods etc. to asynchronous with easy to use constructs
• Asynchronous tasks are started in the background without the need of await keyword. Note that await is still needed to fetch results
• By default uses even loop provided by asyncio. But supports other event loops as well
• Support for ThreadPool or ProcessPool executors
• Comes with APIs to build your own asynchronous context manager, asynchronous iterators etc.
• Supports python 3.7 and above
