asyncio.run() consecutively for connection and node browsing doesn't work about opcua-asyncio HOT 6 CLOSED

That is not how async programming works. Try a few python asyncio tutorial first

I've already gone through basic tutorial. My main program is synchronous, and it needs to execute asynchronous coroutines (connect, browse nodes, read values etc) whenever necessary. That's why asyncio.run() is used for execution at those places. I've used similar approach at multiple places in my program (other than opcua) and it works perfectly.
My expectation is - Using asyncio.run() should always work in a synchronous program.

use the sync wrapper if your code is sync

asyncio.run() would act like a sync wrapper, if I'm not wrong. Can you suggest an alternative?

Calling async code from sync is not that easy. You need a loop running in a thread. But luckily for you I have done that work and you can use the sync wrappers. Look at the sync examples in repository

Thanks a lot. Being a newbie in asyncio, I didn't quite give a lot of thought in sync->async handling before opening the issue. BTW, the run_until_complete() method of asyncio worked in this case, since it runs event loop till completion.
