Asyncio event loop written in Rust language
Asyncio event loop based on tokio-rs (WIP) |Build Status| |Join the dev chat at https://gitter.im/PyO3/Lobby|
async-tokio is a drop-in replacement of the built-in asyncio event loop. async-tokio is implemented in rust and uses tokio-rs under the hood and PyO3 python binding <https://github.com/PyO3/pyo3>_.
Using tokio loop
You can create an instance of the loop manually, using:
.. code:: python
import tokio
policy = tokio.EventLoopPolicy()
asyncio.set_event_loop_policy(policy)
Development of tokio loop
To build tokio loop, you'll need rust nightly and Python 3.6. The best way
is to create a virtual env, so that you'll have python commands pointing to the correct tools.

make test
Status
At the moment async-tokio works on unix like systems only. Supported api:
- time api (call_at, call_later)
- sockets api (sock_xxx methods)
- tcp (client/server)
- unix domain socket
- dns
- pipes
- subprocess
- signals
- executors
UDP support is missing.
