aiohttp-asgi

This module provides a way to use any ASGI compatible frameworks and aiohttp together.

Example

from aiohttp import web
from fastapi import FastAPI
from starlette.requests import Request as ASGIRequest

from aiohttp_asgi import ASGIResource

asgi_app = FastAPI()


@asgi_app.get("/asgi")
async def root(request: ASGIRequest):
    return {
        "message": "Hello World",
        "root_path": request.scope.get("root_path")
    }


aiohttp_app = web.Application()

# Create ASGIResource which handle
# any request startswith "/asgi"
asgi_resource = ASGIResource(
    asgi_app,
    root_path="/asgi"
)

# Register resource
aiohttp_app.router.register_resource(
    asgi_resource
)

# [Optional]
asgi_resource.lifespan_mount(
    aiohttp_app,
    startup=True,
    # By default starlette didn't
    # handle "lifespan.shutdown"
    shutdown=False,
)

# Start the application
web.run_app(aiohttp_app)

Installation

pip install aiohttp-asgi

ASGI HTTP server

Command line tool for starting aiohttp web server with ASGI app.

Example

Create the test_app.py

from starlette.applications import Starlette
from starlette.responses import JSONResponse
from starlette.routing import Route


async def homepage(request):
    return JSONResponse({'hello': 'world'})

routes = [
    Route("/", endpoint=homepage)
]

application = Starlette(debug=True, routes=routes)

and run the test_app.py with aiohttp-asgi

aiohttp-asgi \
    --address "[::1]" \
    --port 8080 \
    test_app:application

alternatively using python -m

python -m aiohttp_asgi \
    --address "[::1]" \
    --port 8080 \
    test_app:application
