It makes sense to me to remove Py3, having ant as the build tool is awkward indeed. Thanks for sharing your vision. Cheers, Fokko Op vr 22 nov. 2019 om 16:38 schreef Ivan Greene : > One more task for this subject, the python 3 implementation does not yet > have support for Avro logical types as

One more task for this subject, the python 3 implementation does not yet have support for Avro logical types as far as I’ve been able to tell. So a decent amount of code would need to be ported there. —Ivan > On Nov 22, 2019, at 7:40 AM, Ryan Skraba wrote: > > Thanks for the info; it sounds

Thanks for the info; it sounds reasonable to me! (A big +1 to getting rid of ant, of course). On Thu, Nov 21, 2019 at 12:56 PM Michael A. Smith wrote: > > i would like to update and maintain the py colleges and deprecate and > eventually remove the py3 one. > > 1. Despite being less modern, the

i would like to update and maintain the py colleges and deprecate and eventually remove the py3 one. 1. Despite being less modern, the py codebase has been kept somewhat more pythonic. Capitalizing `schema.Parse` and the literal translation of the java parsing normal form implementation are two

Tick-tock... just bumping this up as the year end approaches! Any interest in making a statement or plan for python2 support for future releases of Avro? There should be one more maintenance release of python 2.7 in 2020 (after sunset) for the accumulated fixes. I'm in the context of looking at

Probably is a good idea that we publish our policy around python support [1] as other projects have done [2]. I think supporting python 2 makes sense at least for our latest release of this year so probably 1.9.x or eventually 1.10.x. I am not at all familiar with our python3 codebase, are we

I'm not sure how much effort we should put into Python2.7 in general, since this version is EOL after this year. Cheers, Fokko Op ma 24 jun. 2019 om 03:20 schreef Michael A. Smith : > There's some not-insignificant complexity in the lang/py codebase to > support derelict versions of Python.

Consider Python < 2.7 obsolete

2019-06-23 Thread Michael A. Smith
There's some not-insignificant complexity in the lang/py codebase to support derelict versions of Python. There are polyfills for json, structs, a whole "StoppableHTTPServer" in avro.tool. I created AVRO-2445 and will start removing this stuff now, but wanted to bounce the idea around the list in
