* Package name : aiofile Version : 3.8.8 Upstream Contact: Dmitry Orlov <m...@mosquito.su> * URL : http://github.com/mosquito/aiofile * License : Apache2 Programming Lang: Python Description : Real asynchronous file operations for Python with asyncio support Hello! Because apt-mirror [1] project is long time unmaintained [2], having many [3]. issues unresolved I started apt-mirror2 [4] project as a drop-in replacement. for the apt-mirror. apt-mirror2 is pure Python/asyncio implementation without `subprocess` calls so. it have some required dependencies which are missing from Debian: - aiofile - caio (this is dependency of aiofile - Python bindings for Linux AIO) - aiolimiter This issue is for aiofile dependency. AFAIK there are 2 project that can be used for asyncio file operations in Python: - aiofile [5] - aiofiles [6] aiofiles is more popular project and started 2 years before aiofile. Moreover it is packaged for Debian and well-maintained. However aiofiles is threaded wrapper around standard Python file API, but aiofile is real Linux AIO implementation of the Python asyncio file api. For now I packaged [7] aiofile as part of the apt-mirror2 project providing source and debian packages in the apt-mirror2 Packagecloud repository [8]. I will be glad to maintain this package along with apt-mirror2 and all of it's dependencies.
