RuntimeError: Timeout context manager should be used inside a task

问题

Background: I am hosting a flask server alongside a discord client

The flask server just needs to pass on messages from the client to discord and from messages from discord to the client.

I am getting the error when I call loop.run_until_complete(sendMsg(request)) I have tried wait_for in sendMsg and wait_for loop.run_until_complete()

I have looked everywhere and haven't found anything so any help would be appreciated.

Code:

import discord
import json
import os
import asyncio
from flask import Flask, request, render_template
from async_timeout import timeout
from threading import Thread
from time import sleep

client = discord.Client()
messages = []
app = Flask(__name__)

def startClient():
    loop = asyncio.new_event_loop()
    asyncio.set_event_loop(loop)
    client.run('token')


#
# Discord Events
#
@client.event
async def on_ready():
    print('Discord Client Ready')

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    global messages
    message.append(message)


#
# Flask Stuff
#
async def sendMsg(request):
    await client.send_message(discord.Object('channel id'), request.form['message'])


@app.route("/chat/", methods=['GET', 'POST'])
def chatPage():
    global messages

    if request.method == 'GET':
        return render_template('main.html')

    elif request.method == 'POST':
        loop = asyncio.new_event_loop()
        loop.run_until_complete(sendMsg(request))
        return ''

@app.route("/chat/get", methods=['GET'])
def chatGet():
    return json.dumps(messages[int(request.args['lastMessageId']):])


# Start everything
os.environ["WERKZEUG_RUN_MAIN"] = 'true'
print('Starting discord.py client')
Thread(target=startClient).start()
print('Starting flask')
app.run(host='0.0.0.0', debug=True)

回答1:

The problem looks like it could be caused by the following:

elif request.method == 'POST':
    loop = asyncio.new_event_loop()
    loop.run_until_complete(sendMsg(request))

That creates a new event loop and runs sendMsg(request) in the new loop. However, sendMsg calls a method on the client object running in its own event loop. sendMsg should be submitted to the existing event loop that runs the client in the other thread. To accomplish that, you need to:

expose the loop created in startClient, e.g. to a client_loop global variable;
replace loop = asyncio.new_event_loop(); loop.run_until_complete(sendMsg(request)) with a call to asyncio.run_coroutine_threadsafe to submit the coroutine to an event loop already running in a different thread.

The submit code would look like this:

elif request.method == 'POST':
    # submit the coroutine to the event loop thread
    send_fut = asyncio.run_coroutine_threadsafe(sendMsg(request), client_loop)
    # wait for the coroutine to finish
    send_fut.result()

回答2:

aiohttp.ClientSession() wants to be called inside a coroutine. Try moving your Client() initializer into any async def function
