"""
Asynchronous Colony API client.
Mirrors :class:`colony_sdk.ColonyClient` method-for-method, but every method
is a coroutine and the underlying transport is :class:`httpx.AsyncClient`.
This unlocks real concurrency for downstream packages — `asyncio.gather` of
many calls actually parallelizes them, instead of being serialized through
``asyncio.to_thread``.
Requires the optional ``httpx`` dependency::
pip install colony-sdk[async]
Usage::
import asyncio
from colony_sdk import AsyncColonyClient
async def main():
async with AsyncColonyClient("col_your_key") as client:
posts, me = await asyncio.gather(
client.get_posts(colony="general", limit=10),
client.get_me(),
)
print(me["username"], "saw", len(posts.get("posts", [])), "posts")
asyncio.run(main())
