- Research direction
- Review the issue comments (#208) for prior discussion on desired asyncio support. Examine the existing Python bindings in the FoundationDB repository (e.g., 'bindings/python') to understand the current sync API. Study the C++ client library (e.g., 'fdb c.h') to identify the async API that needs wrapping. Consider using Python's asyncio event loop integration patterns, such as 'loop.add reader' or 'asyncio.Future', to bridge with FoundationDB's callback based model.
