Support python3...

[supergis]

Now,install on python3 failed:
paver-minilib.zip install failed on python3.

• A PY2 stable release (1.0?) must come first
• Baseline is Python 3.5.1/3 (Xenial/Stretch) or 3.4.2 (Jessie)
• PY2/3 duality might be skipped (2020 is near anyway)

See also #63.

May take until 2020… and if you lobby for Python3 in dependency projects like Paver, that'll speed up things.

I cannot use pyrocore until python3! :(

Also.. paver now supports python3

[pyroscope]

You must be very special for "cannot", depending on exact circumstances. Solutions are pyenv, pyrun, or simply asking your admin / provider to also install python2 (any distro still has the option).

[mafrosis]

Hah! Yes. Well I'm running it in a python2 venv now to see what it's all about. I was looking to use it in a python3 project tho, hence the cannot.

If pyrocore looks the way to go, I'm happy to add the py3 support

[pyroscope]

If I'm not stuck with all the work, that will help to speed up things too. I want to finally push out that long-overdue release the next 3 weeks, then 0.8.6 support will be thrown out and Py3 can come in. Remind me if I forget, also IRC would be a good idea if you want to contribute.

[mafrosis]

OK no problem. I'll take a look at python3 support in the mean time.

Tried to install it (new server install) with Python 3 via pip. Learned (again) that it doesn't yet support 3.x

Installed pip for python2.7. Get warning that 2.x is EOL on Jan 1st, 2020.

So… no pressure ;-)

As mentioned before, see #63, which I'm still actively using.
rtorrent 9234 0.8 0.1 609592 43048 ? Sl Jul20 22:37 /home/rtorrent/.local/pyroscope/bin/python3 /home/rtorrent/bin/pyrotorque --restart --cron.

I fixed a lot of the unit tests, and I actively use most of the code paths.

For the record, anyone wishing to use @kannibalox's branch with pipx can use the following command:
pipx install --spec git+https://github.com/kannibalox/pyrocore.git@py3 --pip-args git+https://github.com/kannibalox/pyrobase.git@py3 pyrocore

Hi, was looking for this. FWIW, in Debian for testing python3 is part of the whole thing. See -

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=942106

as well as -

https://release.debian.org/transitions/html/python3.8.html

There is also this -

You could also take a look at debian-python threads to take a look at where things stand from the distro. POV -

What's taking so long? Python 2 became EOL 8 months ago, and is no longer installed by default on Debian 11.

[NoSubstitute]

@nyuszika7h - there has been zero code updates to this project since 14 September 2021.

There is https://github.com/kannibalox/pyrosimple, works nicely for me. I recommend it to anyone looking for Python 3 support.
