Decorator type signatures not recognized by pyright about pytest-asyncio

[seifertm]

Thanks. Pytest-asyncio is currently type checked with an outdated version of mypy. There's an issue to update the type checker: #596

I assume it would be helpful to also type check with pyright in the CI.

Since pytest-asyncio v0.23 has functional issues that break some users' test suites, the typing issue you describe is not at the top of my priorities list at the moment. I hope you understand!

@charles-dyfis-net pytest-asyncio-0.23.5a0 fixed some typing issues and removed the unbound type variable _R in the process. Can you try the pre release and check if it resolves your issue?

We're not running clean, but the specific issue this ticket was filed for is no longer present:

Thanks for checking.

Resolving this issue would make for suitable first contribution to pytest-asyncio. I don't necessarily mean you, but anyone who is interested in working on this.

If anyone wants to open a PR, I would expect:

• A pyright pre-commit hook to be added to .pre-commit-config.yaml. This will run pyright on every commit and prevent this kind of issue in the future
• the docs and tests folders to be excluded from the pyright type check (see configuration of the mypy pre-commit hook)
• The two typing errors to be fixed
