Add a new ASGI worker type that provides native async support using
gunicorn's own HTTP parsing infrastructure adapted for asyncio.
Features:
- HTTP/1.1 with keepalive support
- WebSocket connections (RFC 6455)
- ASGI lifespan protocol for startup/shutdown hooks
- Optional uvloop support for improved performance
- Full proxy protocol support (inherited from gunicorn)
New configuration options:
- --asgi-loop: Event loop selection (auto/asyncio/uvloop)
- --asgi-lifespan: Lifespan protocol control (auto/on/off)
- --root-path: ASGI root path for reverse proxy setups
Usage: gunicorn -k asgi myapp:app
This change extends Python support back to 3.10 and 3.11, which are
still actively maintained by the PSF:
- Python 3.10: Security support until Oct 2026
- Python 3.11: Active support (latest feature release)
- Python 3.12: Active support
- Python 3.13: Latest stable release
The previous change to support only 3.12+ was too restrictive as many
users are still on Python 3.10 and 3.11 in production environments.
Changes:
- Updated pyproject.toml to set minimum Python to 3.10
- Added Python 3.10, 3.11, and PyPy 3.10 to CI matrix
- Updated all documentation to reflect Python 3.10+ requirement
- Maintained compatibility with latest pylint for Python 3.12+
* Update CI and project to support only Python N (3.13) and N-1 (3.12)
- Update GitHub Actions workflows to test only Python 3.12 and 3.13
- Update pyproject.toml to require Python >= 3.12
- Update tox.ini to test only py312 and py313
- Update documentation to reflect Python 3.12+ requirement
- Clean up AppVeyor configuration for Python 3.12
* Update pylint to 3.3.2 for Python 3.12 compatibility
* Disable new pylint warnings for pre-existing issues
