firestore times out when using default DNS resolver

Bắt đầu bằng cách chạy ví dụ Firestore asyncio từ issue với firebase-admin 6.5.0 và Python 3.12.2, sau đó chạy lại với GRPC_DNS_RESOLVER=native. Điều tra đường dẫn resolver mặc định được các log c-ares chỉ ra; hoàn thành khi ví dụ không còn chờ 60 giây hoặc lỗi DNS mà không cần workaround.

import asyncio
import firebase_admin
from firebase_admin import credentials
from firebase_admin import firestore_async
import sys

async def main():
  user_id = sys.argv[1]

  cred = credentials.Certificate("credentials.json")
  firebase_admin.initialize_app(cred)

  db = firestore_async.client()

  user_ref = db.collection("users").document(user_id)
  user = await user_ref.get()
  print(user)

if __name__ == "__main__":
  asyncio.run(main())

This code, using a firebase service account credential, and a database with a users table, will hang for 60 seconds and will fail with a DNS error, this one:

D0408 14:38:20.114377000 7971737600 grpc_ares_wrapper.cc:723]          (c-ares resolver) request:0x60000318e4e0 on_hostbyname_done_locked: C-ares status is not ARES_SUCCESS qtype=AAAA name=firestore.googleapis.com is_balancer=0: DNS query cancelled

This is with firebase-admin 6.5.0 and python 3.12.2

Workaround

Call the python script with this environment variable:

GRPC_DNS_RESOLVER=native

works around the issue.
