Information about the package, python-nine, which is shipped with common Linux distributions. The python-nine package is designed for, Python 2 / 3 compatibility, like six, but favouring Python 3.


Package Name:

python-nine

Summary:

Python 2 / 3 compatibility, like six, but favouring Python 3

Description:

Let's write Python 3 right now! When the best Python 2/Python 3 compatibility modules -- especially the famous `*six* library invented by Benjamin Peterson <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/six>`_ -- were created, they were written from the point of view of a Python 2 programmer starting to grok Python 3. When thou writeth Python, thou shalt write Python 3 and, just for a while, ensure that the thing worketh on Python 2.7 and, possibly, even 2.6. Just before Python 2 is finally phased out, thine codebase shall look more like 3 than like 2. nine facilitates this new point of view. You can write code that is as 3ish as possible while still supporting 2.6. Very comfortable for writing new projects.
