Async Help Needed

[Steven Mapes]

Does anyone have some links to good guides on getting asnyc to work with Django? I have a use case where I really need to have a view give an async response but I can't get even the most basic of examples working.

I've tried the examples from https://testdriven.io/blog/django-async-views/ with a simple view of:

async def test_view(request):
    return HttpResponse("Hello, async Django!")

I've installed uvicorn and am running it with  uvicorn my_project.asgi:application --reload

My sync views work as expected but the async one just returns an error of "The view sample.views.test_view didn't return an HttpResponse object. It returned an unawaited coroutine instead. You may need to add an 'await' into your view."

The example you presented should Just Work - that error generally only occurs if you return an un-awaited coroutine, which if you're just returning a response, should be impossible.

What version of Python and Django are you running?
