Bug 2342562

python-praw fails to build with Python 3.14.0a4.

Two tests fail with:

__________________ TestReddit.test_check_for_async__disabled ___________________

self = <tests.unit.test_reddit.TestReddit object at 0x7f3af6207110>
caplog = <_pytest.logging.LogCaptureFixture object at 0x7f3af5e4ba80>

    def test_check_for_async__disabled(self, caplog):
        reddit = Reddit(check_for_async=False, **self.REQUIRED_DUMMY_SETTINGS)
        reddit._core.request = self.patch_request
>       loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()

tests/unit/test_reddit.py:65:

self = <asyncio.unix_events._UnixDefaultEventLoopPolicy object at 0x7f3af5e652b0>

    def get_event_loop(self):
        """Get the event loop for the current context.
    
        Returns an instance of EventLoop or raises an exception.
        """
        if self._local._loop is None:
>           raise RuntimeError('There is no current event loop in thread %r.'
                               % threading.current_thread().name)
E           RuntimeError: There is no current event loop in thread 'MainThread'.

According to https://docs.python.org/dev/whatsnew/3.14.html#id3

Removed implicit creation of event loop by asyncio.get_event_loop(). It now raises a RuntimeError if there is no current event loop. (Contributed by Kumar Aditya in gh-126353.)

For all our attempts to build python-praw with Python 3.14, see:
https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/g/python/python3.14/package/python-praw/

Testing and mass rebuild of packages is happening in copr.
You can follow these instructions to test locally in mock if your package builds with Python 3.14:
https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/g/python/python3.14/

Let us know here if you have any questions.

Python 3.14 is planned to be included in Fedora 43.
To make that update smoother, we're building Fedora packages with all pre-releases of Python 3.14.
A build failure prevents us from testing all dependent packages (transitive [Build]Requires),
so if this package is required a lot, it's important for us to get it fixed soon.

We'd appreciate help from the people who know this package best,
but if you don't want to work on this now, let us know so we can try to work around it on our side.
