A deceptive PyPI package posing as an Instagram growth tool collects user credentials and sends them to third-party bot services.
Interrupt context manager for asyncio.
This module provides a context manager that can be used to interrupt a block of code as soon as possible when a future is done.
The purpose is to raise as soon as possible to avoid any race conditions.
This is based loosely on async_timeout by Andrew Svetlov and cpython asyncio.timeout
async with interrupt(future, ValueError, "message"):
future.set_result(None)
await asyncio.sleep(0)
Install this via pip (or your favourite package manager):
pip install async_interrupt
