Can't import asyncio

Serverless Framework

Hey!

I am having an absolute blast using this amazing framewok, but in my latest deploy I get this really off putting error message. All my code works absolute fine locally, but in my deployment things get shifty.

Error code:
/var/task/asyncio/init.py

21

from .base_events import *

^ SyntaxError invalid syntax (base_events.py, line 296)

/var/task/handler.py

Does anyone have any idea what could be the problem?

I figured it out. If anyone has the same problem:

I did a major oopsie and didn’t realise that Asyncio is now a part of Python. So by uninstalling asyncio and removing it from requirements.txt I could get it going.
