Asyncio support

[hvanoch]

Is there anyway to use this library with asyncio?

Hi @hvanoch .

This library is not async at the moment.

Obviously, you can wrap the commands into a concurrent.futures thread executor and then call loop.run_in_executor() but I think you mean run natively in an asyncio loop to await for the commands to finish, which in my opinion would be very interesting and should be possible.

Maybe this topic should be moved to Discussions, where we can expose different approaches on how to do this. Also the possible pros and cons, incompatibilities, etc...
