Add Python 3 support via future package

gokceneraslan commented 8 years ago

Python3 support added using futurize and some manual tweaking.
WebError pyramid dependency is dropped since it's not Python3 compatible. pyramid_debugtoolbar is used by default.
Paste is dropped and web server is replaced with waitress which is the default server in pyramid.
CMakeLists.txt is updated to detect boost-python3 module if python3 is used to build moe.
All tests pass in both Python 2 and 3. Simple tests with easy_interface work nicely.

Some help is needed for updating conda-recipe (if needed), testing Python3 with docker and updating documentation properly. Also proper testing of the web interface is required.

As a future task, splitting client and server implementations into two python packages would be really convenient, IMHO. Clients should not bother with cmake and rest of the server implementation.

sorry to "necro-bump" but is this finally merged/fixed? It seems I'm having issues when attempting to build/use MOE with python3 as the default python version

I guess this is not maintained any more. Maybe someone should help porting https://github.com/wujian16/Cornell-MOE to Python 3.

I see, thanks a lot for the pointer!
