NameError: name 'asyncio' is not defined; In running discord bot

Question

I'm working on a small discord bot for a server I made, however I've run into a problem. Whenever I try to run the bot (using python3.4 lilac.py), I get the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "lilac.py", line 7, in <module>
    @asyncio.coroutine
NameError: name 'asyncio' is not defined
Unclosed client session
client_session: <aiohttp.client.ClientSession object at 0xb61ad470>

I tried to install it via python3.4 -m pip install asyncio, and even though it said the install was successful, I still get the error. This is the full code:

import discord
from discord.ext import commands

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix='&&', description="Description     here")

@bot.event
@asyncio.coroutine
def on_ready():
    print('Logged in as')
    print(bot.user.name)

Is there anything I didn't install correctly? Am I calling asyncio incorrectly? Any help is appreciated, I can give more info if needed.

There doesn't seem to be a reasonable reason to down-vote this question (meta.https://mcmap.net/q/212115/-firefox-add-on-tools-for-checking-javascript-syntax/75103). It contains a concise problem description, a small self-contained code sample that reproduces the error, a full traceback, and is sensibly tagged. IOW, it's close to the gold standard for how a question should be presented. – Tabby

Answer 1

You forgot to import asyncio in your code. just add the following into the first line of your code

import asyncio

Lord, I'm an idiot. I've been working on stuff for the past 12 hours and I guess I was just in a rush to get this done. Thank you for responding (I'll mark this as accepted once 5 minutes is up, since it won't let me atm)! – Numbing

Welcome. happy to help – Midwifery

Answer 2

You forgot to import asyncio - add the import before you're using it and it should work.

Same problem, check code below

from fastapi import FastAPI
import uvicorn
import asyncio
app = FastAPI()

@app.get("/")

def root():
    return {"message":"Hello World"}

if __name__ == "__main__":
    nest_ayncio.apply()
    uvicorn.run(app)
