asyncio.run() cannot be called from a running event loop

[SixJohn]

After installation, I met this error when using examples (local ollama, api based model both will cause). I am a newer in LLM using, can someone help me solve this ;-;

Hey @SixJohn, I'm here to assist you with any bugs, questions, or contributions you have. Let's work together to solve this issue!

The error "asyncio.run() cannot be called from a running event loop" occurs when you try to use asyncio.run() inside an already running event loop. This is common in environments like Jupyter notebooks or certain web frameworks.

To resolve this, you can use an alternative approach to run your asynchronous functions. Instead of asyncio.run(), you can use await directly if you're in an async function, or use asyncio.create_task() or asyncio.gather() to manage your coroutines. Here's a basic example of how you might adjust your code:

import asyncio

async def main():
    # Your asynchronous code here
    pass

# If you're in an async function or a running event loop
loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
loop.run_until_complete(main())

This approach should help you run the examples without encountering the error. If you're using a Jupyter notebook, you can also use the nest_asyncio library to allow nested event loops:

import nest_asyncio
nest_asyncio.apply()

Then, you can use await main() directly in a Jupyter cell.
