Cannot stop the assistant using __exit__() function

[KaeYan]

Hi, I am using google assistant library python version on Raspberry Pi 3.

Everything has been working properly except that the exit() function does not stop the assistant. I have a main thread that invokes an assistant wrapper class, which will run assistant.start() in a separate thread. I realize that on the normal working condition, there will be 3 threads:

1. main thread (main.py), 2) wrapper class's start() thread (AssistantThread.py) , and 3) the original assistant thread(Assistant.py)

However, when I call exit function, i realized that it always stuck at the wrapper class's start thread, because the original assistant.start() function does not return.

I am not sure what is the issue. Thanks.

I realize that the exit() func only kills the timer thread invoked by assistant library, however the .start() func still remains blocking.

Does the sdk provides stop function to stop the blocking event loop in the .start()?

Thanks!

I do not believe so
