create_subprocess_shell does not have the user parameter that asyncio has

- uvloop version: 0.20.0
- Python version: 3.12.3
- Platform: Ubuntu 24
- Can you reproduce the bug with
PYTHONASYNCIODEBUG
in env?: yes - Does uvloop behave differently from vanilla asyncio? How?: yes
Below is a slightly modified minimal example from the stdlib, with the addition of the user parameter.
https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-subprocess.html
It will work with asyncio, but the parameter is missing for uvloop in the corresponding method:
TypeError: __subprocess_run() got an unexpected keyword argument 'user'
import asyncio
import getpass
import uvloop
async def run(cmd, user: None | int | str = getpass.getuser()):
proc = await asyncio.create_subprocess_shell(
cmd,
stdout=asyncio.subprocess.PIPE,
stderr=asyncio.subprocess.PIPE,
user=user,
)
stdout, stderr = await proc.communicate()
print(f"[{cmd!r} exited with {proc.returncode}]")
if stdout:
print(f"[stdout]\n{stdout.decode()}")
if stderr:
print(f"[stderr]\n{stderr.decode()}")
asyncio.run(run("ls /tmp")) # this works
uvloop.install()
asyncio.run(run("ls /tmp")) # this errors
Could this be fixed/enhanced? This is very useful for scenarios where both changing the user and environment variables are required, since doing "su" to another user does not transfer the environment variables, and it then needs to be handled in a rather tedious way.
Thank you!
