Why has is_closed stopped working in the rewrite version? - python-3.x

Question

I am new to the Discord python API. I am trying to run a method forever as long as the client is still open. I scheduled the method through Client.loop.create_task(), and am running while not client.is_closed. I added a debugging print statement, but the print statement is called 0 times.
I based the code on this post: Discord.py Schedule
import discord
from datetime import datetime
from datetime import timedelta
token = "TOKEN"
s_users = {}
timezon_offset = 5
inac_days = 0
inac_hours = 0
inac_minutes = 1
active_role = "Active"
inac_role = "Inactive"
client = discord.Client()
async def monitor():
for guild in client.guilds:
for user in guild.members:
s_users[user] = datetime(1,1,1)
#client.event
async def on_ready():
print('logged on as {0}'.format(client.user))
#client.event
async def on_message(message):
print('message logged from {0.author}: {0.content} at {0.created_at}'.format(message))
s_users[message.author] = message.created_at - timedelta(hours=timezon_offset)
async def task():
await client.wait_until_ready()
active = None
inactive = None
for guild in client.guilds:
for role in guild.roles:
if (role.name == active_role):
active = role
elif (role.name == inac_role):
inactive = role
while not client.is_closed:
print("here")
for user in s_users:
if datetime.now() - s_users[user] > timedelta(days=inac_days, hours=inac_hours, minutes=inac_minutes):
if not(inac_role in [role.name for role in user.roles]):
await user.remove_roles(active)
await user.add_roles(inactive)
print("gave user: " + user.name + " " + inac_role + " role")
if datetime.now() - s_users[user] <= timedelta(days=inac_days, hours=inac_hours, minutes=inac_minutes):
if not(active_role in [role.name for role in user.roles]):
await user.remove_roles(inactive)
await user.add_roles(active)
print("gave user: " + user.name + " " + active_role + " role")
client.loop.create_task(task())
client.run(token)
It should execute task(), which should run as long as the client is not closed. However, the print statement is executed 0 times.

In version 1.0.0, Client.is_closed was changed from a property to a method. See Property Changes in the Migration guide.
You'll need to add parentheses to call the method:
while not client.is_closed():
