asgimod 0.1.1

Description:

asgimod 0.1.1

asgimod

This package includes components and utilities that makes django *usable* in async python, such as:

Async model mixins (fully typed), asgimod.mixins.
Async managers and querysets (fully typed), asgimod.db.
Typed sync_to_async and async_to_sync wrappers, asgimod.sync.

Package FAQ:

Does this support foreign relation access: YES.
Does this allow queryset chaining: YES.
Does this allow queryset iterating, slicing and indexing: YES.
Does this affect default model manager functionality: NO, because it’s on another classproperty aobjects.
Is everything TYPED: YES, with the only exception of function parameters specification on Python<3.10 since PEP 612 is being released on 3.10.

Requirements:

Django >= 3.0
Python >= 3.8

Installation:
pip install asgimod

The documentation uses references from these model definitions:
class Topping(AsyncMixin, models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=30)


class Box(AsyncMixin, models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=50)


class Price(AsyncMixin, models.Model):
amount = models.DecimalField(decimal_places=2, max_digits=10)
currency = models.CharField(max_length=16, default="usd")


class Pizza(AsyncMixin, models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=50)
toppings = models.ManyToManyField(Topping)
box = models.ForeignKey(Box, null=True, on_delete=models.SET_NULL)
price = models.OneToOneField(Price, on_delete=models.CASCADE)

and the following TypeVar:
T = TypeVar("T", bound=models.Model)



Async model mixins
This mixin adds async capabilities to the model class and instances:

aobjects full featured async manager.
asave, adelete async equivalents of save and delete.
a(.*) async foreign relations access.

Import:
from asgimod.mixins import AsyncMixin

Usage:
class SampleModel(AsyncMixin, models.Model):
sample_field = models.CharField(max_length=50)

API Reference:
Extends from models.Model, uses metaclass AsyncMixinMeta (extended from models.ModelBase).

classproperty aobjects -> AsyncManager
Returns an instance of AsyncManager. Async equivalent of Model.objects.

asyncmethod asave(force_insert=False, force_update=False, using=DEFAULT_DB_ALIAS, update_fields=None) -> None
Async equivalent of Model.save

asyncmethod adelete(using=DEFAULT_DB_ALIAS, keep_parents=False) -> None
Async equivalent of Model.delete

getattr a(.*) -> Awaitable[T] | AsyncManyToOneRelatedManager | AsyncManyToManyRelatedManager
There are 3 possible returns from an async foreign relation access.

AsyncManyToOneRelatedManager: Result of a reverse many to one relation access.
AsyncManyToManyRelatedManager: Result of a many to many relation access (both forward and reverse access).
Awaitable[T]: Result of a one to one relation access or a forward many to one relation access. Returns an awaitable with T return (T being the type of the foreign object).

To access a foreign relation in async mode, add the a prefix to your sync access attribute. Using the models defined for this documentation, examples:
price = await Price.aobjects.get(id=1)
pizza = await Pizza.aobjects.get(id=1)
weird_pizza = await Pizza.aobjects.get(id=2)
bacon = await Topping.aobjects.get(id=1)
mushroom = await Topping.aobjects.get(id=2)
medium_box = await Box.aobjects.get(id=1)

# one to one rel & forward many to one rel
await pizza.aprice
await price.apizza
await price.abox

# reverse many to one rel
await medium_box.apizza_set.all().get(id=1)
await medium_box.apizza_set.filter(id__gt=1).order_by("name").count()
await medium_box.apizza_set.add(weird_pizza)
await medium_box.apizza_set.clear()

# forward many to many rel
await pizza.atoppings.all().exists()
await pizza.atoppings.add(bacon, mushroom)
await bacon.atoppings.filter(name__startswith="b").exists()
await pizza.atoppings.remove(bacon)
await pizza.atoppings.clear()

# reverse many to many rel
await mushroom.apizza_set.all().exists()
await mushroom.apizza_set.add(pizza)
await mushroom.apizza_set.set([pizza, weird_pizza])

As you have guessed, these attributes are not defined in code, and thus they are not typed, well, here's the fix:
class Topping(AsyncMixin, models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=30)
apizza_set: AsyncManyToManyRelatedManager["Pizza"]

class Box(AsyncMixin, models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=50)
apizza_set: AsyncManyToOneRelatedManager["Pizza"]

class Price(AsyncMixin, models.Model):
amount = models.DecimalField(decimal_places=2, max_digits=10)
currency = models.CharField(max_length=16, default="usd")
apizza: "Pizza"



Async managers and querysets
Async equivalent managers and querysets. All async managers classes are only alias to their respective querysets classes. Such alias exists for user friendliness and better field typings. If you need other methods and attributes unique to managers, use objects instead.
Import:
from asgimod.db import (
AsyncQuerySet,
AsyncManyToOneRelatedQuerySet,
AsyncManyToManyRelatedQuerySet,
AsyncManager,
AsyncManyToOneRelatedManager,
AsyncManyToManyRelatedManager
)

API Reference:
class AsyncQuerySet[T] (alias: AsyncManager[T])

Magic methods - Iterators & Iterables:

asynciterator __aiter__ -> Iterable[T | Tuple | datetime | date | Any]
Async iterator over an AsyncQuerySet[T] using async for syntax. The type of the item evaluated queryset depends on the query made, for return type of each query please refer to the official Django QuerySet API references.
async for price in Price.aobjects.filter(currency="usd"):
self.assertEqual(price.currency, "usd")


getitem __getitem__ -> AsyncQuerySet[T] | Awaitable[T | Tuple | datetime | date | Any]
Slicing and indexing over an AsyncQuerySet[T] using [] syntax.
Slicing an AsyncQuerySet[T] will return a new AsyncQuerySet[T], slicing using steps is not allowed, as it would evaluate the internal sync QuerySet and raises SynchronousOnlyOperation.
prices = await Price.aobjects.all()[:2].eval()
prices = await Price.aobjects.all()[1:2].eval()
prices = await Price.aobjects.all().order_by("-amount")[1:].eval()

Indexing an AsyncQuerySet[T] will return an Awaitable[T | Tuple | datetime | date | Any] (return of the awaitable depends on the query, for return type of each query please refer to the official Django QuerySet API references).
price = await Price.aobjects.all()[0]
price = await Price.aobjects.all()[:5][0]
price = await Price.aobjects.filter(amount__gte=Decimal("9.99"))[0]


Magic methods - General

builtin __repr__
Returns f"<AsyncQuerySet [...{self._cls}]>".

builtin __str__
Returns f"<AsyncQuerySet [...{self._cls}]>".

builtin __len__
Raises NotImplementedError, AsyncQuerySet does not support __len__(), use .count() instead.

builtin __bool__
Raises NotImplementedError, AsyncQuerySet does not support __bool__(), use .exists() instead.

Magic methods - Operators

operator __and__ (&)
AsyncQuerySet[T] & AsyncQuerySet[T] -> AsyncQuerySet[T]
# async qs for prices amount > 19.99
qa = Price.aobjects.filter(amount__gt=Decimal("2.99"))
qb = Price.aobjects.filter(amount__gt=Decimal("19.99"))
qs = qa & qb


operator __or__ (|)
AsyncQuerySet[T] | AsyncQuerySet[T] -> AsyncQuerySet[T]
# async qs for prices with usd and eur currency
qa = Price.aobjects.filter(currency="usd")
qb = Price.aobjects.filter(currency="eur")
qs = qa | qb


Methods for explicit evaluation of querysets

asyncmethod item(val: Union[int, Any]) -> T | Tuple | datetime | date | Any
Returns the item on index val of an AsyncQuerySet[T]. This method is used by __getitem__ internally. The return type depends on the query, for return type of each query please refer to the official Django QuerySet API references.

asyncmethod eval() -> List[T | Tuple | datetime | date | Any]
Returns the evaluated AsyncQuerySet[T] in a list. Equivalent of sync_to_async(list)(qs: QuerySet[T]). The item type of the list depends on the query, for return type of each query please refer to the official Django QuerySet API references.
toppings = await Topping.aobjects.all().eval()
toppings_start_with_B = await Topping.aobjects.filter(name__startswith="B").eval()


Methods that returns a new AsyncQuerySet[T] containing the new internal QuerySet[T].

Typed async and sync wrappers
As of the release of this package the sync_to_async and async_to_sync wrappers on asgiref.sync are not typed, this package provides the typed equivalent of these wrappers:

If project is on python<3.10, only the return type will be typed.
If project is on python>=3.10, both the return type and param specs will be typed (PEP 612).

Import:
from asgimod.sync import sync_to_async, async_to_sync

Usage: Same as asgiref.sync


Contribution & Development
Contributions are welcomed, there are uncovered test cases and probably missing features.
Typing the missing things in sync Django
Django itself is not doing well at typing, for example the sync managers are not typed, but please keep those out of the scope of this project as it's not related to async and asgi.
Running the tests
A django test project was used for testing, simply run
python manage.py shell
