Are Python coroutines actually used in a project?

I read this page on coroutines from David Beazley a while ago, and I wondered if any actual Python-based software made use of them ?

How is it coroutines seem like the most unused feature in Python ?

There are plenty of projects in python3 that use coroutines. Check on www.asyncio.org for resources.

For an arbitrary listing:

  • Curio is a concurrency framework by David Beazley (doesn't use asyncio)
  • aiozmq implements async ZMQ transport, using coroutines
  • aioredis allows async Redis operations using coroutines

Also Tornado advises to use them in their documentation.

Since Python is really rich with (asynchronous) frameworks,I show two framework here which is based coroutine:

1.Eventlet is a concurrent networking library for Python，Coroutines ensure that the developer uses a blocking style of programming that is similar to threading, but provide the benefits of non-blocking I/O.

2.Chiral is a lightweight coroutine-based networking framework for high-performance internet and Web services.

Twisted's defer.inlineCallbacks turns your functions into coroutines.

The LEPL parsing library uses coroutines to implement trampolines, which allow "infinite recursion".
