Exceptions

In case something goes wrong during a request, several exceptions can be thrown, all inheriting from CookidooException.

Another asyncio event loop is

With the async calls, you might encounter an error that another asyncio event loop is already running on the same thread. This is expected behavior according to the asyncio.run() documentation. You cannot use more than one aiohttp session per thread, reuse the existing one!

Exception ignored: RuntimeError: Event loop is closed

Due to a known issue in some versions of aiohttp when using Windows, you might encounter a similar error to this:

Exception ignored in: <function _ProactorBasePipeTransport.__del__ at 0x00000000>
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\...\py38\lib\asyncio\proactor_events.py", line 116, in __del__
    self.close()
  File "C:\...\py38\lib\asyncio\proactor_events.py", line 108, in close
    self._loop.call_soon(self._call_connection_lost, None)
  File "C:\...\py38\lib\asyncio\base_events.py", line 719, in call_soon
    self._check_closed()
  File "C:\...\py38\lib\asyncio\base_events.py", line 508, in _check_closed
    raise RuntimeError('Event loop is closed')
RuntimeError: Event loop is closed

You can fix this according to this StackOverflow answer by adding the following line of code before executing the library:

asyncio.set_event_loop_policy(asyncio.WindowsSelectorEventLoopPolicy())

Raw API Requests

The raw requests intercepted between the Cookidoo Android App and the backend can be found here ./docs/raw-api-requests. They have been used to reconstruct the API which is implemented in this library.

Releasing

It is only possible to release a final version on the master branch. For it to pass the gates of the publish workflow, it must have the same version in the tag, the cookidoo_api/__init__.py and an entry in the CHANGELOG.md file.

To release a prerelease version, no changelog entry is required, but it can only happen on a feature branch (not master branch). Also, prerelease versions are marked as such in the github release page.
