### Motivation and Context Completes #4794. Most of SK Python is written with async code; however, there were some code paths that masked the underlying async code and made it look like a sync function invoke. In reality, asyncio spun up event loops and attempted to manage them properly. This becomes tricky when running a Jupyter notebook as they have their own event loop. <!-- Thank you for your contribution to the semantic-kernel repo! Please help reviewers and future users, providing the following information: 1. Why is this change required? 2. What problem does it solve? 3. What scenario does it contribute to? 4. If it fixes an open issue, please link to the issue here. --> ### Description This PR removes the ability to call a kernel function synchronously. Since the majority of the code base is written with async methods, and to match dotnet, which is async, we're removing the sync function invoke and its dependent code. Some Planners were also run synchronously -- these were updated to run asynchronously. Kernel examples, notebooks, docs, and tests were updated accordingly. <!-- Describe your changes, the overall approach, the underlying design. These notes will help understanding how your code works. Thanks! --> ### Contribution Checklist <!-- Before submitting this PR, please make sure: --> - [X] The code builds clean without any errors or warnings - [X] The PR follows the [SK Contribution Guidelines](https://github.com/microsoft/semantic-kernel/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md) and the [pre-submission formatting script](https://github.com/microsoft/semantic-kernel/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md#development-scripts) raises no violations - [X] All unit tests pass, and I have added new tests where possible - [ ] I didn't break anyone 😄
Running the OpenAPI syntax example
-
In a terminal, navigate to
semantic_kernel/python/samples/kernel-syntax-examples/openapi_example. -
Run
poetry installfollowed bypoetry shellto enter poetry's virtual environment. -
Start the server by running
python openapi_server.py. -
In another terminal, do steps 1 & 2. Then, run
python openapi_client.py, which will register a plugin representing the API defined in openapi.yaml
