How to run a discord.py bot with FastAPI
import asyncio
import discord
from fastapi import FastAPI
app = FastAPI()
client = discord.Client()
# where the magic happens
# register an asyncio.create_task(client.start()) on app's startup event
# ^ note not client.run()
@app.on_event("startup")
async def startup_event():
asyncio.create_task(client.start('token'))
@app.get("/")
async def read_root():

Thanks for Your input! Gonna save this for another occasion.
I solved that pretty easily. Switched to discord.py library just because was curious.
No more errors, maybe that will help somebody too
