Python 3 Porting
The Pyramid master nominally runs on Python 3.2 (as of September 25, 2011). It does not require a "translation" (via 2to3 or 3to2) but instead uses a single codebase that run under 2 and 3.
Currently neither scaffolding ("paster create") or paster commands like "paster pshell" or "paster pview" work. Also, some scaffolding dependencies such as zope.sqlalchemy and the transaction package are not yet ported, or, if they are, haven't had a general release yet. So it's not really ready for general public usage yet. However, it can be used by the curious hacker under Python 3.2, like so:
from pyramid.view import view_config
from pyramid.config import Configurator
from pyramid.response import Response
from wsgiref.simple_server import make_server
@view_config(route_name='test_page')
def test_page(request):
return Response('Hello World')
if __name__ == '__main__':
config = Configurator()
config.add_route('test_page', '/test')
config.scan('__main__')
httpd = make_server('', 8000, config.make_wsgi_app())
httpd.serve_forever()You'll need to install the WebOb master by hand into your virtualenv for this to work properly (https://github.com/Pylons/webob ).
Below are more details.
PasteScript has not been ported, nor have its dependencies. We likely will need to replace PasteScript rather than port it, unless someone is brave enough to do it in the meantime. Here's a list of the resulting packages that don't work that we will need to replace.
- Paste (won't port, will replace; see Pyramid 2 Brainstorm)
- PasteScript (won't port, will replace; see also Pyramid 2 Brainstorm).
The fact that these dependencies are missing makes it necessary to create a Pyramid app "by hand" (ala https://docs.pylonsproject.org/docs/pyramid_quick_tutorial.html) instead of using "paster create" to create a new project.
- pyramid_debugtoolbar (https://github.com/Pylons/pyramid_debugtoolbar)
- ZODB (http://svn.zope.org/ZODB/trunk/; likely won't be ported by us, too large, just maybe keep an eye on other efforts; for example https://mail.zope.org/pipermail/zodb-dev/2011-September/014363.html)
- Chameleon (already worked under Py2.5 and Py3.2)
- Mako (already worked under Py2.4-Py3.2)
- MarkupSafe (already worked under Py2.4-Py3.2)
- translationstring (merged jayd3e's py3 branch to trunk, released as 0.4)
- venusian (jbohman ported, released as 1.0a1)
- zope.interface (ported as of 3.6.0+)
- repoze.lru (jbohman ported, released as 0.4)
- zope.deprecation (chrism ported, released as 3.5.0)
- WebTest (ported by gawel, released as 1.3.1)
- WebOb (Joe Dallago: GSOC 2011 project, Chris McDonough picked up porting work, docs and testing work still remains, but webob trunk at https://github.com/Pylons/webob has 3.2 support, no release yet save for zipballs such as the one at https://github.com/Pylons/webob/zipball/master)
- PasteDeploy (already ported by agronholm, available in 1.5.0)
- transaction (http://svn.zope.org/transaction/branches/chrism-py3/)
- zope.sqlalchemy (http://svn.zope.org/zope.sqlalchemy/branches/chrism-py3/)
- pyramid_exclog (version 0.5 released to PyPI, thanks to Joe Dallago).
- pyramid_tm (unreleased, but master version at https://github.com/Pylons/pyramid_tm is py3 compat)
- zope.component (jbohman factored out "zope.registry" and placed it in zope SVN; also see https://mail.zope.org/pipermail/zope-dev/2011-August/043340.html, this code was later moved to zope.interface in version 3.8.0, removed z.component dep in Pyramid 1.3)
- zope.configuration (removed core dependency on this in Pyramid 1.2a5+; still dep'ed on by pyramid_zcml)
- zope.i18nmessageid (transitive dep of zope.configuration; removed z.config dep in Pyramid 1.2a5+)
- zope.schema (transitive dep of zope.configuration; removed z.config dep in Pyramid 1.2a5+)
- zope.event (transitive dep of zope.component, removed zope.component dep in Pyramid 1.3)
