    from asyncio_hn import ClientHN

    async def main(loop):
        # We init the client - extension of aiohttp.ClientSession
        async with ClientHN(loop=loop) as hn:
            # Up to 500 top and top stories (only ids)
            hn_new_stories = await hn.top_stories()
            # Download top 10 story data
            top_posts = await hn.items(hn_new_stories[:10])
            # Download the user data for each story
            users = await hn.users([post.get("by") for post in top_posts])


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

Advance usage
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Using this config you can reach 1000+ request/sec.

.. code:: python
    import aiohttp
    from asyncio_hn import ClientHN
    
    N = 1_000_000

    async def advance_run(loop):
        # We init the client - extension of aiohttp.ClientSession
        conn = aiohttp.TCPConnector(limit=1000, loop=loop)
        async with ClientHN(loop=loop, queue_size=1000, connector=conn, progress_bar=True, debug=True) as hn:
            # Download the last 1,000,000 stories
            hn_new_stories = await hn.last_n_items(n=N)
