Getting started with python-asyncio

Remarks#

This section provides an overview of what python-asyncio is, and why a developer might want to use it.

It should also mention any large subjects within python-asyncio, and link out to the related topics. Since the Documentation for python-asyncio is new, you may need to create initial versions of those related topics.

Installation or Setup

In order to install asyncio:

pip install asyncio

Notice that python asyncio requires Python 3.3 or later.

This module became part of the Python standard library since Python 3.4.

Simple Example- Printing ‘Hello World’ with asyncio

import asyncio

async def hello_world():
    print('Hello World')

loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
loop.run_until_complete(hello_world())
loop.close()
