Push to PyPI #2

Open whiletruelearn opened 6 years ago

whiletruelearn commented 6 years ago

This is really nice. Would be nice to have it in PyPI and have compatibility for python 2.x as well.

@whiletruelearn: This is a great tool!, but anyway python 2.x is going to be down in an year. ;/ http://pythonclock.org/

fyi - this may suffice for some people's needs - http://export.arxiv.org/rss/stat.ML/recent

@rajasekharponakala I beg to differ, loosing support doesn't mean it's going away. Having support for 2.x is common practice across OSS .

chiphuyen commented 6 years ago

You can install it with pip now. I will look into making it compatible with python 2.x. Sorry I've been a bit swamped.

The fact that it's a common practice now does not mean it needs to be for new packages. Only meaningful statistic would be the one that says how new packages are doing it. It's totally ok for a new package to say no to python2. Some very well established packages are doing it as well (e.g. matplotlib).

In my view it's mostly not a big deal to support both, but if it starts to feel at all like it is (i.e. it takes away from the core development), it's time to stop.
