Problem

The bare except: block in AsyncQueue.wait() (line 28) catches all exceptions, including critical system exceptions like KeyboardInterrupt and SystemExit. This can mask important signals that should propagate.

Solution

Replace bare except: with specific exception types:

  • asyncio.CancelledError: Expected cancellation during await
  • Exception: Application-level exceptions

Why This Matters

  • Follows Python best practices (PEP 8)
  • Prevents accidentally suppressing system-level exceptions
  • Improves debuggability by allowing critical exceptions to propagate
  • Aligns with async/await best practices

Testing

The change maintains existing behavior for expected exceptions while allowing system exceptions to propagate correctly.

The bare except: block in AsyncQueue.wait() could catch critical
system exceptions like KeyboardInterrupt and SystemExit, masking
important signals. This change specifies exact exception types:

- asyncio.CancelledError: Expected cancellation during await
- Exception: Application-level exceptions

This follows Python best practices (PEP 8) and prevents accidentally
suppressing system-level exceptions that should propagate.

Hello! Thanks for the PR.

The exception is always re-raised. What issue were you running into that motivated this change? Or is this change something you're making just while reading the code?

Hello! Thanks for the PR.

The exception is always re-raised. What issue were you running into that motivated this change? Or is this change something you're making just while reading the code?

Thanks for taking a look.

The intention here was to avoid a bare except: which can mask unexpected
errors while still preserving the existing behavior. Since the exception is
always re-raised, switching to except Exception: makes the flow a bit clearer
without changing semantics.

If you'd prefer a different pattern or want to keep the original style, I’m
happy to adjust — just let me know and I’ll align with the project conventions.
