Python 3 support #13

Closed yegorich closed 1 year ago

yegorich commented 8 years ago

Is Python 3 support planned? AFAIK mwclient already supports Python 3 in its resent version. So all mwscrape dependencies already support Python 3.

This issue is very important for such environments as for example Buildroot, that support only one Python instance (either python 2 or python 3) at a time.

2to3 tools found several needed changes:

I'm not a user of mwscrape but rather a co-maintainer of various python packages in Buildroot. So it would be great, if you could fix this issue.

Thanks.

I pushed initial port to Python 3 in py3 branch, and it sort of works, however I ran into this issue: https://github.com/djc/couchdb-python/issues/281. It seems that ultimately CouchDB is the project that should fix it (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-3003), or perhaps Python's httplib one day will become more lenient again, but until then mwscrape on Python 3 isn't really usable.
