does it support pypy? #31

Closed ygl-rg closed 8 years ago

ygl-rg commented 8 years ago

hi, I am interested in using the lib with pypy. Does it support?

While you may be able to extract pieces that with work with PyPy, in general no, the whole package will not work. There's a lot of C and C++ code that's relied on in the dependencies (GDAL, libproj, blosc).

Finally, numpy and Cython are used quite a bit, which I think are only sort of compatible with PyPy right now. You might have to check and see what works.

If you're primarily using the vector types from the karta.geometry module, and using GeoJSON, you might have some luck, but you'll likely have to actually copy out the bits you need.

thx. I will give it a try. I am going to use geometry & geojson modules only.
