Python Asyncio, Requests, Aiohttp | Make faster API Calls

#python #asyncio #aiohttp
Python, asynchronous programming, the event loop... what is all this stuff?
We learn what python is doing in the background so we can make more API Calls faster. We learn how to go from requests to aiohttp in our code, and refactor code for asynchronous programming.

"An event loop is when we let some stuff that takes a long time do it's thing in the background. And when it's all set, the 'event loop' will 'pick it up'." is the most helpful and intuitive definition of event loop I've heard.

Best async explanation in the burger loving world!!!

I really enjoy the fast-pace and the humor of your tutorials. Keeps me from zoning out. You've got a gift for making these tutorials both informative and enjoyable.

[@PatrickAlphaC]

Appreciate it! I’m trying to find the right style. I get some people saying they hate it, and others love it. Guess time will tell ahah

[@werthersoriginal]

@@PatrickAlphaC HA! So true. Well it is definitely different and different is refreshing! I just subscribed. Looking forward to more!

[@KermitDominicano]

Fantastic video. I'm working on something for my internship that involves asyncio and aiohttp and this made it very easy to understand what is going on, you explain everything so well

One of the greatest explanations of Async in KZbin.

wonder i completed 17mins tutorial without getting distracted. Great way of keeping audience on focus :)

[@lawrencedoliveiro9104]

6:12 You could turn any synchronous (i.e. thread-blocking call) into an async one using the to_thread() function available in asyncio with Python 3.9 and later.

[@Flyingnobull]

Great video Patrick! I wonder if you would make similar ones for threading, multi-processing and comparison of all concurrency features.

Finally understood how to implement asycio. Very well explained. You not trying to get everything correct in first attempt and giving errors so viewers can understand why it gave error was something very educational in this video. Subscribed.

[@legateau5387]

Came back to this when exploring MEV and monitoring the chain for certain txs. All the code I've seen uses JS and async/await so was curious on implementing it in python.

[@venkatramachandran6345]

@@PatrickAlphaC Processed 320k API with 100 APIs at a time. Out of 320k, 91 got connection error (404). When I rerun the remaining APIs, it worked. How to avoid this connection failure? It looks like a common issue in asyncio but dont see proper fix.

In in the version 2 of your code you have remove the print statments for printing out the each 60 symbol and print is an i/o bound job which indeed reduces the execution time but i am sure with print statment included the execution time gonna be better that the version 1 thanks awsome job :}

[@ishikadav1708]

hi, i really loved the tutorial! thanks so much! one question- i have created a different python file, where you use requests, and have imported that to my main file. however, the loop is in my main file. do i add 'async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:' in my imported file, and add async def where my loop occurs?

[@user-up1xf2lq4y]

I'm trying to understand how throwing tasks in an event loop by create_task in tasks list then gather the results(17:02) differs from just executing all tasks at once by gather method(16:38). It seems that gather method not only throws tasks in an event loop but also it executes and waits to be finished(?) so only difference from the two example is that whether you registered the tasks manually by adding create_task or just get them all done by gather method? Did i get it right?

[@anamoly01]

Great video. would be even better if you could also show how to control number of parallel requests. Uncontrolled parallel requests will trigger dos attack protections and block your further requests.

[@Lorant1984]

No, that would be confusing, considering the topic of the tutorial. A step-by-step (keep it simple) approach is preferable.

Well well well, to make tasks happen simultaneously, put them into an even_loop, just simple principle that i only understood after this video. The tutorial surprise my brain. Thank you!

[@PatrickAlphaC]

Glad this is what helped it click!

[@spencerphill8115]

Great video, my only question would be is, how would you make it async if each time you made a call the url changed and there were headers involved in making the api request? Headers being content type and authentication

[@PatrickAlphaC]

You'd have to do a lot more conditionals in the code 😅
