asyncprawcore is a low-level communication layer used by Async PRAW 7+.

Installation
------------

Install asyncprawcore using ``pip`` via:

.. code-block:: console

    pip install asyncprawcore

Execution Example
-----------------

The following example demonstrates how to use asyncprawcore to obtain the list of
trophies for a given user using the script-app type. This example assumes you have the
environment variables ``PRAWCORE_CLIENT_ID`` and ``PRAWCORE_CLIENT_SECRET`` set to the
appropriate values for your application.

.. code-block:: python

    import os
    import pprint
    import asyncio
    import asyncprawcore


    async def main():
        authenticator = asyncprawcore.TrustedAuthenticator(
            asyncprawcore.Requestor("YOUR_VALID_USER_AGENT"),
            os.environ["PRAWCORE_CLIENT_ID"],
            os.environ["PRAWCORE_CLIENT_SECRET"],
        )
        authorizer = asyncprawcore.ReadOnlyAuthorizer(authenticator)
        await authorizer.refresh()

        async with asyncprawcore.session(authorizer) as session:
            pprint.pprint(await session.request("GET", "/api/v1/user/bboe/trophies"))


    if __name__ == "__main__":
        asyncio.run(main())

Save the above as ``trophies.py`` and then execute via:

.. code-block:: console

    python trophies.py

Depending on asyncprawcore
--------------------------

asyncprawcore follows `semantic versioning <https://semver.org/>`_ with the exception
that deprecations will not be preceded by a minor release. In essence, expect only major
versions to introduce breaking changes to asyncprawcore's public interface. As a result,
if you depend on asyncprawcore then it is a good idea to specify not only the minimum
version of asyncprawcore your package requires, but to also limit the major version.

Below are two examples of how you may want to specify your asyncprawcore dependency:

setup.py
~~~~~~~~

.. code-block:: python

    setup(..., install_requires=["asyncprawcore >=0.1, <1"], ...)

requirements.txt
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

.. code-block:: text

    asyncprawcore >=1.5.1, <2
