What is later?

later is a play on Async not happening now but at some point in the future. It was also an awesome name for a toolkit for writing AsyncIO applications. The batteries if you will for AsyncIO.

later offers the following functions:

  • asyncio Event enhancements
    • BiDirectionalEvent - Back channel of information for the setter to ensure the waiter has called wait() a second time
  • asyncio Task enhancements
    • Watcher - Watch tasks and ensure they don't die - take action when they do
  • asyncio Unittesting enhancements
    • TestCase - Use in place of IsolatedAsyncioTestCase for more wins
    • IsolatedAsyncioTestCase is backported for 3.7 users

later currently backports 3.8's async_case + mock libraries for 3.7 users.
