Hello, I am announcing the release of pathlib 1.0.1. This version makes pathlib Python 2.6-compatible. Note that 2.6 compatibility may not have been as well tested as more recent Python versions (especially on non-Unix platforms).
As a reminder, the standalone (PyPI) version of pathlib will not receive any new features or general improvements. New developments and regular bug fixes will happen mostly in the Python standard library, and be publicly available in official Python releases. See https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pathlib Overview -------- pathlib offers a set of classes to handle filesystem paths. It offers the following advantages over using string objects: * No more cumbersome use of os and os.path functions. Everything can be done easily through operators, attribute accesses, and method calls. * Embodies the semantics of different path types. For example, comparing Windows paths ignores casing. * Well-defined semantics, eliminating any warts or ambiguities (forward vs. backward slashes, etc.). Requirements ------------ Python 3.2 or later is recommended, but pathlib is also usable with Python 2.6 and 2.7. Install ------- In Python 3.4, pathlib is now part of the standard library. For Python 3.3 and earlier, ``easy_install pathlib`` or ``pip install pathlib`` should do the trick. Changelog for version 1.0.1 --------------------------- - Pull request #4: Python 2.6 compatibility by eevee. Regards Antoine. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
