Transfer `pypi` to active maintainer #23

Open mdwoelfle opened 5 years ago

mdwoelfle commented 5 years ago

This project has a large number of forks, but the pypi project has not been updated since 2014 and does not work with python3. Would you be willing to add access to pypi for a more active maintainer?

dazza-codes commented 5 years ago

@sam-cox has not been active on github in over a year, going by the activity log on the user page

the most advanced fork is https://github.com/maritimeplanning/pytides
@blazetopher @titoconte contributed most to those changes
if a transfer of ownership is an option, who can take it on?

windcrusader commented 5 years ago

Keen to help with this. I've ported it Python 3 and it seems to be going well.

It would be great if someone would maintain this more actively. The current status discourages contributions. I was considering making a PR with a much faster decomposition method, but I decided against it, because I worried that I would be wasting my time. Instead I wrote my own tiny tidal fitting tool (https://github.com/grinsted/tidalfit).

@grinsted - agreed, the state of maintenance and contributions on this repo and package needs to be redressed. AFAICT, this is the most informative SO topic on this issue:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/45935230/transfer-ownership-of-pypi-packages

The tidal community needs to do something to fork this repo and adopt the package on pypi.

Hi everyone, I have forked pytides and make it able to run on the latest python and it is also available in PyPI as pytides2

drf5n commented 1 year ago

The current result of

pip install pytides   # installs   https://github.com/sam-cox/pytides/releases/tag/v0.0.4 from 2014 March 22

Which is not up to date with the 2020 state of https://github.com/sam-cox/pytides and the 6 commits since 2014: https://github.com/sam-cox/pytides/commits/master

pip install pytides2  # installs  https://github.com/sahitono/pytides/releases/tag/v0.0.5 from 2020 Nov 27

Which is a couple commits behind https://github.com/sam-cox/pytides and also behind https://github.com/sahitono/pytides by 14 commits https://github.com/sahitono/pytides/commits/master

There are other forks listed on https://github.com/sam-cox/pytides/forks

You can bypass Pypi and install directly from a fork (such as my https://github.com/drf5n/pytides fork) on github with a line like:

pip install git+https://github.com/drf5n/pytides.git

or from a fork's release tag:

pip install https://github.com/drf5n/pytides/archive/refs/tags/v0.0.7.zip
