RuntimeError during unit tests: Future attached to a different loop

hinzundcode opened this issue · 4 comments

I tried to write pytest testcases for a FastAPI route that returns an event source/stream. The first test always succeedes, but the second test, despite identical content, consistently runs into an error: RuntimeError: Task ... got Future ... attached to a different loop. I'm not sure if the error is related to sse_starlette, fastapi, httpx or pytest-asyncio. I'll try it here first.

Here is a minimal example that can be used to reproduce the issue:

from httpx import AsyncClient
from fastapi import FastAPI
from sse_starlette.sse import EventSourceResponse
import asyncio

app = FastAPI()

@app.post("/foo")
async def http_foo() -> EventSourceResponse:
    async def event_generator():
        yield {"data": "1"}
        yield {"data": "2"}
        yield {"data": "3"}
    return EventSourceResponse(event_generator())

def parse_event_stream(text):
    events = []
    for line in text.strip().split("\r\n\r\n"):
        events.append(line[len("data:"):].strip())
    return events

async def test_first():
    client = AsyncClient(app=app, base_url="http://test")
    async with client:
        response = await client.post("/foo")
    events = parse_event_stream(response.text)
    assert events == ["1", "2", "3"]

async def test_second():
    client = AsyncClient(app=app, base_url="http://test")
    async with client:
        response = await client.post("/foo")
    events = parse_event_stream(response.text)
    assert events == ["1", "2", "3"]

Versions used:

sse-starlette 1.6.1
fastapi 0.101.0
httpx 0.24.1

My pytest config looks like this:

I don't think this is sse-starlette related. It is sometime a bit tricky to have correct event-loop handling in combination with pytest.

If you face the issue outside pytest in regular app, please reopen.

I had the same issue, only with SSE, so what I had to was for any tests involving SSEs I launched the webapp in a subprocess and made calls using a real http client (not the test client).

@hinzundcode did you ever get to the bottom of this? I seem to be facing the same issue, thanks!

Started a discussion in FastAPI in case anyone's interested!
