"""``tornado.gen`` is a generator-based interface to make it easier to work in an asynchronous environment. Code using the ``gen`` module is technically asynchronous, but it is written as a single generator instead of a collection of separate functions. For example, the following asynchronous handler: .. testcode:: class AsyncHandler(RequestHandler): @asynchronous def get(self): http_client = AsyncHTTPClient() http_client.fetch("http://example.com", callback=self.on_fetch) def on_fetch(self, response): do_something_with_response(response) self.render("template.html") .. testoutput:: :hide: could be written with ``gen`` as: .. testcode:: class GenAsyncHandler(RequestHandler): @gen.coroutine def get(self): http_client = AsyncHTTPClient() response = yield http_client.fetch("http://example.com") do_something_with_response(response) self.render("template.html") .. testoutput:: :hide: Most asynchronous functions in Tornado return a `.Future`; yielding this object returns its `~.Future.result`. You can also yield a list or dict of ``Futures``, which will be started at the same time and run in parallel; a list or dict of results will be returned when they are all finished: .. testcode:: @gen.coroutine def get(self): http_client = AsyncHTTPClient() response1, response2 = yield [http_client.fetch(url1), http_client.fetch(url2)] response_dict = yield dict(response3=http_client.fetch(url3), response4=http_client.fetch(url4)) response3 = response_dict['response3'] response4 = response_dict['response4'] .. testoutput:: :hide: If the `~functools.singledispatch` library is available (standard in Python 3.4, available via the `singledispatch `_ package on older versions), additional types of objects may be yielded. Tornado includes support for ``asyncio.Future`` and Twisted's ``Deferred`` class when ``tornado.platform.asyncio`` and ``tornado.platform.twisted`` are imported. See the `convert_yielded` function to extend this mechanism. .. versionchanged:: 3.2 Dict support added. .. versionchanged:: 4.1 Support added for yielding ``asyncio`` Futures and Twisted Deferreds via ``singledispatch``.
