This PR creates an
async_pipethat works with coroutines. It can be passed either synchronous or asynchronous functions as arguments, and calls them sequentially on the input, awaiting the coroutines appropriately.The
async_pipeusesinspect.iscoroutineto determine whether results should be awaited. An earlier version usedinspect.isawaitable, but this did not work with the Result world, since Results are awaitable. The same would be true for Options.It also includes an extra
bindfunction forasync_resultthat can be used in theasync_pipeline.I would personally find this functionality helpful for integrating with existing code that uses the standard python approach to async.
