AssertionError: yield from wasn't used with future

This code:

import asyncio
async def wee():
    address = 'localhost'
    port = 5432
    reader, writer = asyncio.open_connection(address, port)
    message = '/t'
    print('Send: %r' % message)
    writer.write(message.encode())

async def main():
    t2 = asyncio.ensure_future(wee())
    await t2

if __name__ == "__main__":
    loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
    loop.run_until_complete(main())

...produces an error AssertionError: yield from wasn't used with future with this traceback:

AssertionError: yield from wasn't used with future

If I use just one variable instead of unpacking asyncio.open_connection to reader, writer and just to dummy=asyncio.open_connection(... there is no such error, though dummy object is not usable as documentation's StreamReader as well - TypeError: 'generator' object is not subscriptable. Absolutely no idea what happens, please help.

You need to change the asyncio.open_connection(address, port) line to await asyncio.open_connection(address, port). Open connection returns a future/promise etc and you need to "await" that result in order to be able to access its contents.
