awaitlet is hosted on GitHub at sqlalchemy/awaitlet under the SQLAlchemy organization.

Releases and project status are available on Pypi at https://pypi.python.org/pypi/awaitlet.

The most recent published version of this documentation should be at https://awaitlet.sqlalchemy.org.

Installation

Awaitlet is available on pypi under the name awaitlet:

$ pip install awaitlet

Dependencies

awaitlet’s sole dependency is the greenlet library. This is a widely used library that allows for coroutines in Python.

Greenlet is written in C. While the package has binary releases available for many platforms available, there may not be binary releases pre-built for some architectures in some cases, in which case the environment will need Python native extension build tools and dependencies to be present. Greenlet also may not be functional on pre-release cPython interpreters, as it typically requires updates to be compatible with newer cPython releases.

Community

awaitlet is developed by Mike Bayer, and is part of the SQLAlchemy project.

User issues, discussion of potential bugs and features are most easily discussed using GitHub Discussions.
