Docstrings are indented when using await

code = """
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
plt.imshow(np.random.randn(10, 10))
plt.show()
"""

print(code)
await asyncio.sleep(1)

yields

        import numpy as np
        import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
        plt.imshow(np.random.randn(10, 10))
        plt.show()

with indentation (8 indents to be exact), whereas dropping the await doesn’t.

I figured this belonged here rather than in Jupyter notebook, but I’m using the notebook to run this example (I’m not sure if it would be reproducible using ipython from the CLI since I imagine the code = ... and await ... get run in different execution requests).

For now, I can just textwrap.dedent, but thought I’d file the issue nonetheless.

Thanks for the ping.

I’m hopping to get some of this natively handled by CPython at some point. I’ll see if I can do something when I have some time.

Yeah, Ithink it’s reasonable to tell users that using 3.8+ for this to work is reasonable. 3.7 is best effort.
