How to run async in different thread?

Igor86

Hi all,

this might be a dumb question, please bear with me, i started coding in python just a short time ago.

I had my code running on a different QThread and it worked great. Now I had to change the API i use inside the function, and this new function requires me to await my function. So i am basically calling an awaited function.

But when I execute it I get an error:

RuntimeWarning: coroutine 'cTelegram.sendImage' was never awaited
self.exec_()

I call my task like this:

self.telegramThread = QThread()
       self.telegramWorker = TelethonClass.cTelegram()
       self.telegramWorker.moveToThread(self.telegramThread)
       self.tgSig.tgSignal.connect(self.telegramWorker.sendImage)
       self.telegramThread.start()

and my called code is this:

class cTelegram(QObject):
   async def sendImage(self, im0, depot, score, classname):
       
       .... some irrelevant suff here...

        await bot.send_file(-11111111113, image_stream)

What am I doing wrong?

Thank you

Hi,

I think the issue here is that you are mixing two different aspects. The async/await parts require an event loop to run but you don't create one and that loop is not the one from Qt either.
