Install
-------
aioitertools requires Python 3.6 or newer.
You can install it from PyPI:
$ pip3 install aioitertools
Usage
-----
aioitertools shadows the standard library whenever possible to provide
asynchronous version of the modules and functions you already know. It's
fully compatible with standard iterators and async iterators alike, giving
you one unified, familiar interface for interacting with iterable objects:
from aioitertools import iter, next, map, zip
something = iter(...)
first_item = await next(something)
async for item in iter(something):
...
async def fetch(url):
response = await aiohttp.request(...)
return response.json
async for value in map(fetch, MANY_URLS):
...
async for a, b in zip(something, something_else):
...

aioitertools emulates the entire `itertools` module, offering the same
function signatures, but as async generators. All functions support
standard iterables and async iterables alike, and can take functions or
coroutines:

from aioitertools import chain, islice
async def generator1(...):
yield ...
async def generator2(...):
yield ...
async for value in chain(generator1(), generator2()):
...
async for value in islice(generator1(), 2, None, 2):
...
See [builtins.py][builtins] and [itertools.py][itertools] for full documentation
of functions and abilities.
