[FIXED] python: Task got bad yield:

Issue

I am aiming to make parallel requests to the list of endpoints, hence using asyncio ensure_future can somone please take a look and give me an idea on how to fix errors (python3.6.7)

import asyncio
import treq


async def main_aysnc():
    loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
    await start_coros_parllel()

async def start_coros_parllel():
    config = {}
    config['services'] = [ 
        b'https://www.google.com',
        b'https://www.yahoo.com',
        b'https://www.facebook.com'
        ]
    results = await asyncio.gather(*[asyncio.ensure_future(treq.get(service)) for service in config['services']])
    

if __name__ == "__main__":
    asyncio.get_event_loop().run_until_complete(main_aysnc())

LOGS

Traceback (most recent call last):

Solution

The problem is that you should not use asyncio with treq.

According to documentation:

treq depends on a recent Twisted and functions on Python 2.7 and Python 3.3+ (including PyPy).

If you want to use asyncio you have to use some other http client framework e.g. aiohttp.

If you need any example on how to use aiohttp client, feel free to ask.
