Running an Owyl tree and something else concurrently in the same application is only possible with threading right now.
There is a safer and more modern alternative - asyncio, which is in the standard library. Lots of libraries are already compatible with it. This can also be a good time to upgrade Owyl to Python3.
It helps a lot that Asyncio's code patterns are very similar to Owyl's:
@owyl.parent_task
def sequence(*children, **kwargs):
final_value = True
for child in children:
result = yield child(**kwargs)
if not result and result is not None:
final_value = False
break
yield final_value
@asyncio.coroutine
def sequence(*children, **kwargs):
for coroutine in children:
result = yield from coroutine(**kwargs)
if not result:
return False
return True
