Python 3.7 compatible release?

[hlef]

Are you planning to issue a Python 3.7 compatible release in a near future?

I am the Debian maintainer of breadability. For now we are based on 0.1.20, and I'm not sure how compatible this version is with recent Python 3 releases.

Thanks for your work.

I'm not sure planning is the right word for it, as there hasn't been much activity on this project as of late. I'm not even sure if this code is currently Python 3 compatible.

If someone wants to spearhead getting this ready for Python 3.7 that would be awesome, but for now there isn't any intention to do so.

@hlef I don't see a reason why the breadability should not be compatible with Python 3.7. There is also TravisCI for that version and I am using it as a dependency in my project without problems. Do you have any specific problem or you are just not sure?

[hlef]

I don't have any specific problem. I was just asking because the current 0.1.2 release is fairly old and does not officially support Python > 3.3. The current code in the repository (in particular the setup.py) mentions Python 3.6. I was wondering if you plan to release this code any time soon.

I'm not sure there's any "official" support at this point; just happy little accidents of compatibility. :) I've updated the travis.yml and tox.ini files to reflect that it seems to work with Python 3.7 (and dropped 3.3 and 3.4). It's in the develop branch (I think part of the confusion was when I made a push to update things in 2018, and did so in the master branch). I don't think I have access to PyPI to upload a new version, so if someone has the ability to upload we can create a new release to upload there.

@mitechie do you think you could release a new version of the breadability to PyPI?

[hlef]

@craigmaloney a PyPI release would be nice, but a GitHub release is sufficient for me to update the Debian package. Thanks for your work.

Hello!
Is there any news on this topic? I'm getting "pkg_resources is deprecated as an API" warning that I think is related to this. Maybe I can help with this.
Thanks.
