Version history

This library adheres to Semantic Versioning 2.0.

3.7.1

  • Fixed sending large buffers via UNIX stream sockets on asyncio

  • Fixed several minor documentation issues (broken links to classes, missing classes or attributes)

3.7.0

  • Dropped support for Python 3.6

  • Improved type annotations:

    • Several functions and methods that were previously annotated as accepting Coroutine[Any, Any, Any] as the return type of the callable have been amended to accept Awaitable[Any] instead, to allow a slightly broader set of coroutine-like inputs, like async_generator_asend objects returned from the asend() method of async generators, and to match the trio annotations:

      • anyio.run()

      • anyio.from_thread.run()

      • TaskGroup.start_soon()

      • TaskGroup.start()

      • BlockingPortal.call()

      • BlockingPortal.start_task_soon()

      • BlockingPortal.start_task()

      Note that this change involved only changing the type annotations; run-time functionality was not altered.

    • The TaskStatus class is now a generic protocol, and should be parametrized to indicate the type of the value passed to task_status.started()

    • The Listener class is now covariant in its stream type

    • create_memory_object_stream() now allows passing only item_type

    • Object receive streams are now covariant and object send streams are correspondingly contravariant

  • Changed TLSAttribute.shared_ciphers to match the documented semantics of SSLSocket.shared_ciphers of always returning None for client-side streams

  • Fixed CapacityLimiter on the asyncio backend to order waiting tasks in the FIFO order (instead of LIFO) (PR by Conor Stevenson)

  • Fixed CancelScope.cancel() not working on asyncio if called before entering the scope

  • Fixed open_signal_receiver() inconsistently yielding integers instead of signal.Signals instances on the trio backend

  • Fixed to_thread.run_sync() hanging on asyncio if the target callable raises StopIteration

  • Fixed start_blocking_portal() raising an unwarranted RuntimeError: This portal is not running if a task raises an exception that causes the event loop to be closed

  • Fixed current_effective_deadline() not returning -inf on asyncio when the currently active cancel scope has been cancelled (PR by Ganden Schaffner)

  • Fixed the OP_IGNORE_UNEXPECTED_EOF flag in an SSL context created by default in TLSStream.wrap() being inadvertently set on Python 3.11.3 and 3.10.11

  • Fixed CancelScope to properly handle asyncio task uncancellation on Python 3.11 (PR by Nikolay Bryskin)

  • Fixed OSError when trying to use create_tcp_listener() to bind to a link-local IPv6 address (and worked around related bugs in uvloop)

  • Worked around a PyPy bug when using anyio.getaddrinfo() with for IPv6 link-local addresses containing interface names

3.6.2

  • Pinned Trio to < 0.22 to avoid incompatibility with AnyIO’s ExceptionGroup class causing AttributeError: 'NonBaseMultiError' object has no attribute '_exceptions'

3.6.1

  • Fixed exception handler in the asyncio test runner not properly handling a context that does not contain the exception key

3.6.0

  • Fixed TypeError in get_current_task() on asyncio when using a custom Task factory

    • command now accepts accepts bytes and sequences of bytes

    • stdin, stdout and stderr now accept file-like objects (PR by John T. Wodder II)

  • Changed the pytest plugin to run both the setup and teardown phases of asynchronous generator fixtures within a single task to enable use cases such as cancel scopes and task groups where a context manager straddles the yield

3.5.0

  • Added start_new_session keyword argument to run_process() and open_process() (PR by Jordan Speicher)

  • Fixed deadlock in synchronization primitives on asyncio which can happen if a task acquiring a primitive is hit with a native (not AnyIO) cancellation with just the right timing, leaving the next acquiring task waiting forever (#398)

  • Added workaround for bpo-46313 to enable compatibility with OpenSSL 3.0

3.4.0

  • Added context propagation to/from worker threads in to_thread.run_sync(), from_thread.run() and from_thread.run_sync() (#363; partially based on a PR by Sebastián Ramírez)

    NOTE: Requires Python 3.7 to work properly on asyncio!

  • Fixed race condition in Lock and Semaphore classes when a task waiting on acquire() is cancelled while another task is waiting to acquire the same primitive (#387)

  • Fixed async context manager’s __aexit__() method not being called in BlockingPortal.wrap_async_context_manager() if the host task is cancelled (#381; PR by Jonathan Slenders)

  • Fixed worker threads being marked as being event loop threads in sniffio

  • Fixed task parent ID not getting set to the correct value on asyncio

  • Enabled the test suite to run without IPv6 support, trio or pytest plugin autoloading

3.3.4

  • Fixed BrokenResourceError instead of EndOfStream being raised in TLSStream when the peer abruptly closes the connection while TLSStream is receiving data with standard_compatible=False set

3.3.3

  • Fixed cancellation problem on asyncio where level-triggered cancellation for all parent cancel scopes would not resume after exiting a shielded nested scope (#370)

3.3.1

  • Added missing documentation for the ExceptionGroup.exceptions attribute

  • Changed the asyncio test runner not to use uvloop by default (to match the behavior of anyio.run())

  • Fixed RuntimeError on asyncio when a CancelledError is raised from a task spawned through a BlockingPortal (#357)

  • Fixed asyncio warning about a Future with an exception that was never retrieved which happened when a socket was already written to but the peer abruptly closed the connection

3.3.0

  • Added asynchronous Path class

  • Added the wrap_file() function for wrapping existing files as asynchronous file objects

  • Relaxed the type of the path initializer argument to FileReadStream and FileWriteStream so they accept any path-like object (including the new asynchronous Path class)

  • Dropped unnecessary dependency on the async_generator library

  • Changed the generics in AsyncFile so that the methods correctly return either str or bytes based on the argument to open_file()

  • Fixed an asyncio bug where under certain circumstances, a stopping worker thread would still accept new assignments, leading to a hang

3.2.1

  • Fixed idle thread pruning on asyncio sometimes causing an expired worker thread to be assigned a task

3.2.0

  • Added Python 3.10 compatibility

  • Added the ability to close memory object streams synchronously (including support for use as a synchronous context manager)

  • Changed the default value of the use_uvloop asyncio backend option to False to prevent unsafe event loop policy changes in different threads

  • Fixed to_thread.run_sync() hanging on the second call on asyncio when used with loop.run_until_complete()

  • Fixed to_thread.run_sync() prematurely marking a worker thread inactive when a task await on the result is cancelled

  • Fixed ResourceWarning about an unclosed socket when UNIX socket connect fails on asyncio

  • Fixed the type annotation of open_signal_receiver() as a synchronous context manager

  • Fixed the type annotation of DeprecatedAwaitable(|List|Float).__await__ to match the typing.Awaitable protocol

3.1.0

  • Added env and cwd keyword arguments to run_process() and open_process.

  • Added support for mutation of CancelScope.shield (PR by John Belmonte)

  • Added the sleep_forever() and sleep_until() functions

  • Changed asyncio task groups so that if the host and child tasks have only raised CancelledErrors, just one CancelledError will now be raised instead of an ExceptionGroup, allowing asyncio to ignore it when it propagates out of the task

  • Changed task names to be converted to str early on asyncio (PR by Thomas Grainger)

  • Fixed sniffio._impl.AsyncLibraryNotFoundError: unknown async library, or not in async context on asyncio and Python 3.6 when to_thread.run_sync() is used from loop.run_until_complete()

  • Fixed odd ExceptionGroup: 0 exceptions were raised in the task group appearing under certain circumstances on asyncio

  • Fixed wait_all_tasks_blocked() returning prematurely on asyncio when a previously blocked task is cancelled (PR by Thomas Grainger)

  • Fixed declared return type of TaskGroup.start() (it was declared as None, but anything can be returned from it)

  • Fixed TextStream.extra_attributes raising AttributeError (PR by Thomas Grainger)

  • Fixed await maybe_async(current_task()) returning None (PR by Thomas Grainger)

  • Fixed: pickle.dumps(current_task()) now correctly raises TypeError instead of pickling to None (PR by Thomas Grainger)

  • Fixed return type annotation of Event.wait() (boolNone) (PR by Thomas Grainger)

  • Fixed return type annotation of RunVar.get() to return either the type of the default value or the type of the contained value (PR by Thomas Grainger)

  • Fixed a deprecation warning message to refer to maybe_async() and not maybe_awaitable() (PR by Thomas Grainger)

  • Filled in argument and return types for all functions and methods previously missing them (PR by Thomas Grainger)

3.0.1

  • Fixed to_thread.run_sync() raising RuntimeError on asyncio when no “root” task could be found for setting up a cleanup callback. This was a problem at least on Tornado and possibly also Twisted in asyncio compatibility mode. The life of worker threads is now bound to the the host task of the topmost cancel scope hierarchy starting from the current one, or if no cancel scope is active, the current task.

3.0.0

    • BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBLE The SocketStream and SocketListener classes were made non-generic

    • Made all non-frozen dataclasses hashable with eq=False

    See the migration documentation for instructions on how to deal with these changes.

  • Improvements to running synchronous code:

    • Added the run_sync_from_thread() function

    • Added the run_sync_in_process() function for running code in worker processes (big thanks to Richard Sheridan for his help on this one!)

    • Added the statistics() method to Event, Lock, Condition, Semaphore, CapacityLimiter, MemoryObjectReceiveStream and MemoryObjectSendStream

    • Lock and Condition can now only be released by the task that acquired them. This behavior is now consistent on all backends whereas previously only Trio enforced this.

    • The CapacityLimiter.total_tokens property is now writable and CapacityLimiter.set_total_tokens() has been deprecated

    • Added the max_value property to Semaphore

  • Asyncio specific improvements (big thanks to Thomas Grainger for his effort on most of these!):

    • Cancel scopes are now properly enforced with native asyncio coroutine functions (without any explicit AnyIO checkpoints)

    • Changed the asyncio CancelScope to raise a RuntimeError if a cancel scope is being exited before it was even entered

    • Changed the asyncio test runner to capture unhandled exceptions from asynchronous callbacks and unbound native tasks which are then raised after the test function (or async fixture setup or teardown) completes

    • Changed the asyncio TaskGroup.start_soon() (formerly spawn()) method to call the target function immediately before starting the task, for consistency across backends

    • Changed the asyncio TaskGroup.start_soon() (formerly spawn()) method to avoid the use of a coroutine wrapper on Python 3.8+ and added a hint for hiding the wrapper in tracebacks on earlier Pythons (supported by Pytest, Sentry etc.)

    • Changed the default thread limiter on asyncio to use a RunVar so it is scoped to the current event loop, thus avoiding potential conflict among multiple running event loops

    • Thread pooling is now used on asyncio with run_sync_in_worker_thread()

    • Fixed current_effective_deadline() raising KeyError on asyncio when no cancel scope is active

  • Added the RunVar class for scoping variables to the running event loop

2.2.0

  • Added the maybe_async() and maybe_async_cm() functions to facilitate forward compatibility with AnyIO 3

  • Fixed Event objects on the trio backend not inheriting from anyio.abc.Event

  • Fixed run_sync_in_worker_thread() raising UnboundLocalError on asyncio when cancelled

  • Fixed MemoryObjectSendStream.send() raising BrokenResourceError when the last receiver is closed right after receiving the item

  • Fixed ValueError: Invalid file descriptor: -1 when closing a SocketListener on asyncio

2.0.2

  • Fixed one more case of AttributeError: 'async_generator_asend' object has no attribute 'cr_await' on asyncio

2.0.1

  • Fixed broken MultiListener.extra() (PR by daa)

  • Fixed TLSStream returning an empty bytes object instead of raising EndOfStream when trying to receive from the stream after a closing handshake

  • Fixed AttributeError when cancelling a task group’s scope inside an async test fixture on asyncio

  • Fixed wait_all_tasks_blocked() raising AttributeError on asyncio if a native task is waiting on an async generator’s asend() method

2.0.0

  • General new features:

    • Added support for subprocesses

    • Added support for “blocking portals” which allow running functions in the event loop thread from external threads

    • Added the anyio.aclose_forcefully() function for closing asynchronous resources as quickly as possible

      • current_default_thread_limiter()current_default_worker_thread_limiter()

      • ResourceBusyErrorBusyResourceError

    • BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBLE Exception classes were moved to the top level package

    • Dropped support for Python 3.5

    • Bumped minimum versions of trio and curio to v0.16 and v1.4, respectively

    • Changed the repr() of ExceptionGroup to match trio’s MultiError

  • Backend specific changes and fixes:

    • asyncio: Added support for ProactorEventLoop. This allows asyncio applications to use AnyIO on Windows even without using AnyIO as the entry point.

    • asyncio: The asyncio backend now uses asyncio.run() behind the scenes which properly shuts down async generators and cancels any leftover native tasks

    • curio: Worked around the limitation where a task can only be cancelled twice (any cancellations beyond that were ignored)

    • asyncio + curio: a cancellation check now calls sleep(0), allowing the scheduler to switch to a different task

    • asyncio + curio: Host name resolution now uses IDNA 2008 (with UTS 46 compatibility mapping, just like trio)

    • asyncio + curio: Fixed a bug where a task group would abandon its subtasks if its own cancel scope was cancelled while it was waiting for subtasks to finish

    • asyncio + curio: Fixed recursive tracebacks when a single exception from an inner task group is reraised in an outer task group

  • Socket/stream changes:

    • BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBLE The stream class structure was completely overhauled. There are now separate abstract base classes for receive and send streams, byte streams and reliable and unreliable object streams. Stream wrappers are much better supported by this new ABC structure and a new “typed extra attribute” system that lets you query the wrapper chain for the attributes you want via .extra(...).

    • BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBLE Socket server functionality has been refactored into a network-agnostic listener system

    • BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBLE TLS functionality has been split off from SocketStream and can now work over any bidirectional bytes-based stream – you can now establish a TLS encrypted communications pathway over UNIX sockets or even memory object streams. The TLSRequired exception has also been removed as it is no longer necessary.

    • BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBLE Buffering functionality (receive_until() and receive_exactly()) was split off from SocketStream into a stream wrapper class (anyio.streams.buffered.BufferedByteReceiveStream)

    • BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBLE IPv6 addresses are now reported as 2-tuples. If original 4-tuple form contains a nonzero scope ID, it is appended to the address with % as the separator.

    • BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBLE Byte streams (including socket streams) now raise EndOfStream instead of returning an empty bytes object when the stream has been closed from the other end

    • BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBLE The socket API has changes:

      • create_tcp_server()create_tcp_listener()

      • create_unix_server()create_unix_listener()

      • create_udp_socket() had some of its parameters changed:

        • interfacelocal_address

        • portlocal_port

        • reuse_address was replaced with reuse_port (and sets SO_REUSEPORT instead of SO_REUSEADDR)

        • addressremote_address

        • portremote_port

        • bind_hostlocal_address

        • bind_port → (removed)

        • autostart_tlstls

        • tls_hostname (new parameter, when you want to match the certificate against against something else than remote_address)

      • connect_tcp() now returns a TLSStream if TLS was enabled

      • notify_socket_closing() was removed, as it is no longer used by AnyIO

      • SocketStream has changes to its methods and attributes:

        • address.extra(SocketAttribute.local_address)

        • alpn_protocol.extra(TLSAttribute.alpn_protocol)

        • close()aclose()

        • receive_exactly()BufferedReceiveStream.receive_exactly()

        • receive_some()receive()

        • receive_until()BufferedReceiveStream.receive_until()

        • send_all()send()

        • setsockopt().extra(SocketAttribute.raw_socket).setsockopt(...)

        • shared_ciphers.extra(TLSAttribute.shared_ciphers)

        • server_side.extra(TLSAttribute.server_side)

        • start_tls()stream = TLSStream.wrap(...)

        • tls_version.extra(TLSAttribute.tls_version)

      • UDPSocket has changes to its methods and attributes:

        • address.extra(SocketAttribute.local_address)

        • getsockopt().extra(SocketAttribute.raw_socket).getsockopt(...)

        • port.extra(SocketAttribute.local_port)

        • receive() no longer takes a maximum bytes argument

        • receive_packets() → (removed; use async for on the UDP socket instead)

        • send() → requires a tuple for destination now (address, port), for compatibility with the new UnreliableObjectStream interface. The sendto() method works like the old send() method.

        • setsockopt().extra(SocketAttribute.raw_socket).setsockopt(...)

    • BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBLE Renamed the max_size parameter to max_bytes wherever it occurred (this was inconsistently named max_bytes in some subclasses before)

    • Added memory object streams as a replacement for queues

    • Added stream wrappers for encoding/decoding unicode strings

    • Support for the SO_REUSEPORT option (allows binding more than one socket to the same address/port combination, as long as they all have this option set) has been added to TCP listeners and UDP sockets

    • The send_eof() method was added to all (bidirectional) streams

  • File I/O changes:

    • BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBLE Asynchronous file I/O functionality now uses a common code base (anyio.AsyncFile) instead of backend-native classes

    • BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBLE The File I/O API has changes to its functions and methods:

      • aopen()open_file()

      • AsyncFileclose()AsyncFileaclose()

  • Task synchronization changes:

    • BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBLE Queues were replaced by memory object streams

    • BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBLE Added the acquire() and release() methods to the Lock, Condition and Semaphore classes

    • BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBLE Removed the Event.clear() method. You must now replace the event object with a new one rather than clear the old one.

    • Fixed Condition.wait() not working on asyncio and curio (PR by Matt Westcott)

  • Testing changes:

    • BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBLE Removed the --anyio-backends command line option for the pytest plugin. Use the -k option to do ad-hoc filtering, and the anyio_backend fixture to control which backends you wish to run the tests by default.

    • The pytest plugin was refactored to run the test and all its related async fixtures inside the same event loop, making async fixtures much more useful

    • Fixed Hypothesis support in the pytest plugin (it was not actually running the Hypothesis tests at all)

1.4.0

  • Added async name resolution functions (anyio.getaddrinfo() and anyio.getnameinfo())
