Type Description
Task[None]

Created asyncio.Task object. Note that the database

Task[None]

will store this internally, so you don't have to worry

Task[None]

about losing the reference. By default, this task will

Task[None]

never get awaited, so this function will not keep the

Task[None]

event loop running. If you want to keep the event loop running,

Task[None]

make sure to await the returned task object later.

Example
import asyncio

import discobase


async def main():
    db = discobase.Database("test")
    task = await db.login_task("...")
    await db.wait_ready()
