aiofiles is an Apache2 licensed library, written in Python, for handling
|
||
|
local disk files in asyncio applications.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Ordinary local file IO is blocking, and cannot easily and portably made
|
||
|
asynchronous. This means doing file IO may interfere with asyncio
|
||
|
applications, which shouldn't block the executing thread. aiofiles helps with
|
||
|
this by introducing asynchronous versions of files that support delegating
|
||
|
operations to a separate thread pool.
