[Twisted-Python] Wanting to use Twisted, but a dependency uses asyncio

[Craig Rodrigues]

You can use this class to interoperate with the Python asyncio reactor and
Twisted:


https://twistedmatrix.com/documents/current/api/twisted.internet.asyncioreactor.html

So you can do something like:

import asyncio
from twisted.internet import asyncioreactor, reactor
loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()

asyncioreactor.install(eventloop=loop)
reactor.run()


Here is a fancy example which uses Python asyncio, uvloop, and twisted.web
combined:
