Web browser: --- Bug ID: 58053 Summary: Python 3 compatibility Product: Pywikibot Version: core (2.0) Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: Unprioritized Component: General Assignee: Pywikipedia-bugs@lists.wikimedia.org Reporter: valhallasw@arctus.nl Classification: Unclassified Mobile Platform: ---
Make Pywikibot also work under shiny new versions of Python (3.3+, probably).
We are aiming for a multi-compatible codebase (2.6, 2.7 and 3.3, and in the near future 3.4), without a dependency on six. This means we do have some hacks (try-except import blocks, 'if sys.version[0] > 2: unicode = str', etc.
