Question: Call async Javascript function from Python

[Pibben]

Maybe I'm stupid, but I don't understand how to call an async JS function from Python. For example:

eel.expose(test);
async function test() {
    console.log("Hello world!");
}

This does not work:

eel.test()

No I'm afraid that example goes the other way; calling python from JS.

Out of curiosity, can you give a more specific example of when you want to do something like this? I'm struggling to come up with a specific use case I would want to do this.
