Async Iterator
|
||||
----------------
|
||||
|
||||
Some API functions return an "async iterator". An async iterator is something that is
|
||||
capable of being used in an `async for <https://docs.python.org/3/reference/compound_stmts.html#the-async-for-statement>`_
|
||||
statement.
|
||||
|
||||
These async iterators can be used as follows in 3.5 or higher: ::
|
||||
|
||||
async for elem in channel.history():
|
||||
# do stuff with elem here
|
||||
|
||||
If you are using 3.4 however, you will have to use the more verbose way: ::
|
||||
|
||||
iterator = channel.history() # or whatever returns an async iterator
|
||||
while True:
|
||||
try:
|
||||
item = yield from iterator.get()
|
||||
except discord.NoMoreItems:
|
||||
break
|
||||
|
||||
# do stuff with item here
|
||||
|
||||
Certain utilities make working with async iterators easier, detailed below.
|
||||
|
||||
.. class:: AsyncIterator
|
||||
|
||||
Represents the "AsyncIterator" concept. Note that no such class exists,
|
||||
it is purely abstract.
|
||||
|
||||
.. method:: get(**attrs)
|
||||
|
||||
|coro|
|
||||
|
||||
Similar to :func:`utils.get` except run over the async iterator.
|
||||
|
||||
.. method:: find(predicate)
|
||||
|
||||
|coro|
|
||||
|
||||
Similar to :func:`utils.find` except run over the async iterator.
|
||||
|
||||
Unlike :func:`utils.find`\, the predicate provided can be a
|
||||
coroutine.
|
||||
|
||||
:param predicate: The predicate to use. Can be a coroutine.
|
||||
:return: The first element that returns ``True`` for the predicate or ``None``.
|
||||
|
||||
.. method:: flatten()
|
||||
|
||||
|coro|
|
||||
|
||||
Flattens the async iterator into a ``list`` with all the elements.
|
||||
|
||||
:return: A list of every element in the async iterator.
|
||||
:rtype: list
|
||||
|
||||
.. method:: map(func)
|
||||
|
||||
This is similar to the built-in ``map`` function. Another
|
||||
:class:`AsyncIterator` is returned that executes the function on
|
||||
every element it is iterating over. This function can either be a
|
||||
regular function or a coroutine.
|
||||
|
||||
:param func: The function to call on every element. Could be a coroutine.
|
||||
:return: An async iterator.
|
||||
|
||||
.. method:: filter(predicate)
|
||||
|
||||
This is similar to the built-in ``filter`` function. Another
|
||||
:class:`AsyncIterator` is returned that filters over the original
|
||||
async iterator. This predicate can be a regular function or a coroutine.
|
||||
|
||||
:param predicate: The predicate to call on every element. Could be a coroutine.
|
||||
:return: An async iterator.
