在创建后存储asyncio任务时,来自任务的异常会被静音

Question

我正在为项目使用asyncio,并遇到了这种奇怪的行为.

import asyncio

def schedule_something():
    global f
    tsk = asyncio.async(do_something())
    f = tsk #If this line is commented out, exceptions can be heard.

@asyncio.coroutine
def do_something():
    raise Exception()

loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
loop.call_soon(schedule_something)
loop.run_forever()
loop.close()

出于某种原因,在调用时存储生成的任务会asyncio.async()阻止异常执行任何操作.

有人能否对这种情况有所了解？我需要有一种方法来捕获当前项目中的异常.

这是因为只有在Task没有检索到结果的情况下销毁异常才会引发异常.分配Task给全局变量时,它将始终具有活动引用,因此永远不会被销毁.在asyncio/futures.py中有一个文档字符串,详细说明:

class _TracebackLogger:
    """Helper to log a traceback upon destruction if not cleared.

    This solves a nasty problem with Futures and Tasks that have an
    exception set: if nobody asks for the exception, the exception is
    never logged.  This violates the Zen of Python: 'Errors should
    never pass silently.  Unless explicitly silenced.'

    However, we don't want to log the exception as soon as
    set_exception() is called: if the calling code is written
    properly, it will get the exception and handle it properly.  But
    we *do* want to log it if result() or exception() was never called
    -- otherwise developers waste a lot of time wondering why their
    buggy code fails silently.

    An earlier attempt added a __del__() method to the Future class
    itself, but this backfired because the presence of __del__()
    prevents garbage collection from breaking cycles.  A way out of
    this catch-22 is to avoid having a __del__() method on the Future
    class itself, but instead to have a reference to a helper object
    with a __del__() method that logs the traceback, where we ensure
    that the helper object doesn't participate in cycles, and only the
    Future has a reference to it.

    The helper object is added when set_exception() is called.  When
    the Future is collected, and the helper is present, the helper
    object is also collected, and its __del__() method will log the
    traceback.  When the Future's result() or exception() method is
    called (and a helper object is present), it removes the the helper
    object, after calling its clear() method to prevent it from
    logging.

如果要查看/处理异常,只需使用add_done_callback处理任务的结果,并在获得异常时执行必要的操作:

import asyncio

def handle_result(fut):
    if fut.exception():
        fut.result()  # This will raise the exception.

def schedule_something():
    global f
    tsk = asyncio.async(do_something())
    tsk.add_done_callback(handle_result)
    f = tsk

@asyncio.coroutine
def do_something():
    raise Exception()

loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
loop.call_soon(schedule_something)
loop.run_forever()
loop.close()
