AsyncIO support

Open kamilglod opened this issue 1 year ago • 4 comments

I don't see any trace of async support in this SDK, do you have a plan to add it or I need to use loop.run_in_executor() each time I'm interacting with B2 API?

Unfortunately there is not much demand for async support in SDK but writing this would be a huge undertaking.

Is there a specific part that you'd benefit from being exposed (upload?) or would everything have to be exposed as async?

For sure we would need upload (and possibly download) part async as we would do quite a lot of those. It would be super nice to use SDK over simple async http call (using httpx or similar).

I've heard that https://pypi.org/project/aiob2/ works, though it doesn't support everything you can do in b2. It's not "official" though.

Thanks @ppolewicz, it doesn't looks too trusting but we can try it out. Thx :) please close this issue if you consider not worth implementing it in this lib.

Realistically, this would have to be a new lib. Maybe one day?
