Any chance for an aios3path module in future?

Is there any chance some of the contributors would consider building an async version of s3path?

I love using s3path, but I do find myself in a few situations where I need an async version.

Hi @pj-ml

That is a very interesting idea.

To add async capabilities to s3path we have two main issues:

  1. The standard library pathlib - The package that we are expending and keeping here API doesn't support async at this moment
  2. boto3 our SDK for AWS services and the official AWS SDK doesn't support async at this moment

Until that will change I don't see an easy way to add this feature in a simple matter. How ever if I see a lot off requests we can rethink about it.

If someone else want to try working on it I'm fine with it as well.

I am not very familiar with these libraries but how about what aiopath and aiobotocore did?

Perhaps they could be a source of inspiration if someone is willing to put in the time :)
