python -We ResourceWarning not erroring

Question

If I take a simple test script like this, which results in ResourceWarning:

import asyncio
import aiohttp

async def main():
    client = aiohttp.ClientSession()
    await client.get("https://google.com")

asyncio.run(main())

Run it with python -bb -We -X dev test.py.

I’m expecting the ResourceWarning to error and result in a non-0 exit code.

Actual result:

Exception ignored in: <function ClientSession.__del__ at 0x7f397e04beb0>

0 exit code indicating success.

How do I ensure the program actually fails on a warning?

-We makes the interpreter raise an exception instead of a warning. However, within the __del__ function no exception can be raised. Instead, such exceptions are printed to the stderr and the execution continues. This behavior can be overridden via sys.unraisablehook.

Here’s a modified version of the code that will return non-zero exit code:

import aiohttp
import asyncio
import os
import sys


def custom_hook(args):
    os._exit(7)


async def main():
    client = aiohttp.ClientSession()
    await client.get("https://google.com")


sys.unraisablehook = custom_hook
asyncio.run(main())

Notice that instead of sys.exit() I use os._exit(). That’s because sys.exit() raises SystemExit exception which is a bad idea in our case.
