Can this be used on local apps?

[Tosh0kan]

By local apps, I mean asynchronous tasks where the I/O bottleneck is local (eg reading/saving from/to disk)? For example, I created a program that converts image formats, and the relevant part is shown below:

dir_ls = os.listdir(path_outer)
file_list = [path_outer + '\\' + e for e in dir_ls]

try:
    os.mkdir(path_outer + '\\' + 'converted')
except FileExistsError:
    pass
await asyncio.gather(*(asyncio.to_thread(file_convert, e, fmt, batch=True, count=i) for i, e in enumerate(file_list, start=1)))

Does Winloop has something akin to the .to_thread() method or is this exclusively meant to be used for web projects?

You should be able to use .to_thread but I highly recommend you try something like aiofiles or some asynchronous os library with winloop but winloop isn’t just made for severs. You can use it for anything. The biggest benchmark though is networking but that doesn’t mean there isn’t a performance increase.

Both with regular asyncio and with aiofiles, how would winloop be implemented in the logic?

Simply calling install() or run() will replace the internal loop for winloop’s loop.

Like, just add winloop.install() before the asyncio.run() like this?

winloop.install()
asyncio.run(img_convert(args.path, args.format, args.boost))

If so, I'm not noticing any real improvement on average, around a second or so. I'm just wondering if I'm doing this correctly.

Yes, otherwise use `winloop.run()`

I see. Thank you for all the help!
