pytypes 1.0 beta 1 released

by Stefan Richthofer

After many months of work, we proudly announce the first beta release of pytypes. (https://github.com/Stewori/pytypes) pytypes is a toolbox for PEP-484 style typing, explicitly supporting Python >= 3.3, Python 2.7, Jython >= 2.7.1, PyPy 3 (others not tested, but might work). Its main features are - decorators and profiler for runtime typechecking - decorators for typesafe override checking of methods - easily pull type information from stubfiles into __annotations__ - get_type_hints: workable backport to Python 2.7 (based on type comments) - get_type_hints: variant that also takes stubfiles into account - utility functions is_of_type(obj, tp) and is_subtype(subtype, supertype) for use with PEP 484 types - decorator and profiler for generating stubfiles from type information observed and logged at runtime - all these features work equally well on Python 2.7 - all these features smoothly work with OOP, i.e. methods, static methods, class methods, properties This beta release is intended to allow testing of pytypes' approaches in real-world code. Please check to what extend it suites your needs and help us to improve it.

concurrent-log-handler 0.9.6 released

by Preston Landers

concurrent-log-handler ====================== RotatingFileHandler replacement with concurrency, gzip and Windows support -------------------------------------------------------------------------- This package provides an additional log handler for Python's standard logging package (PEP 282). This handler will write log events to a log file which is rotated when the log file reaches a certain size. Multiple processes can safely write to the same log file concurrently. Rotated logs can be gzipped if desired. Windows and POSIX systems are supported. An optional threaded queue logging handler is provided to perform logging in the background. This is a fork of Lowell Alleman's ConcurrentLogHandler 0.9.1 with additional enhancements: * Renamed package to `concurrent_log_handler` * Provide `use_gzip` option to compress rotated logs * Support for Windows * Note: PyWin32 is required on Windows, but can't be installed as an automatic dependency because it's not currently installable through pip. * Fix deadlocking problem with ConcurrentLogHandler under newer Python * More secure generation of random numbers for temporary filenames * Change the name of the lockfile to have .__ in front of it (hide it on Posix) * Provide a QueueListener / QueueHandler implementation for handling log events in a background thread. Optional: requires Python 3. Download ======== `pip install concurrent-log-handler` https://github.com/Preston-Landers/concurrent-log-handler https://pypi.python.org/pypi/concurrent-log-handler News / Changes ============== - 0.9.7/0.9.6: Fix platform specifier for PyPi - 0.9.5: Add `use_gzip` option to compress rotated logs. Add an optional threaded logging queue handler based on the standard library's `logging.QueueHandler`. - 0.9.4: Fix setup.py to not include tests in distribution. - 0.9.3: Refactoring release * For publishing fork on pypi as `concurrent-log-handler` under new package name. * NOTE: PyWin32 is required on Windows but is not an explicit dependency because the PyWin32 package is not currently installable through pip. * Fix lock behavior / race condition - 0.9.2: Initial release of fork by Preston Landers based on a fork of Lowell Alleman's ConcurrentLogHandler 0.9.1 * Fixes deadlocking issue with recent versions of Python * Puts `.__` prefix in front of lock file name * Use `secrets` or `SystemRandom` if available. * Add/fix Windows support thanks, Preston

BOTLIB #18 - Framework to program bots - http://botlib.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ #ggz #evrm #dooddoorgif README BOTLIB is a python3 framework to use if you want to program IRC or XMPP bots. provides CLI, IRC and XMPP bots. Object class - save/load to/from a JSON file. ReST server - serve saved object’s over HTTP. RSS fetcher - echo rss feeds to IRC channels. UDP server - udp to bot to IRC channel.

PyCA cryptography 2.0.1 released

by Paul Kehrer

PyCA cryptography 2.0.1 has been released to PyPI. cryptography includes both high level recipes and low level interfaces to common cryptographic algorithms such as symmetric ciphers, message digests, and key derivation functions. We support Python 2.6-2.7, Python 3.4+, and PyPy. * Fixed a compilation bug affecting OpenBSD. * Altered the manylinux1 wheels to statically link OpenSSL instead of dynamically linking and bundling the shared object. This should resolve crashes seen when using uwsgi or other binaries that link against OpenSSL independently. * Fixed the stack level for the signer and verifier warnings. -Paul Kehrer (reaperhulk)

Vulture 0.21

by Jendrik Seipp

Vulture - Find dead code ======================== Vulture finds unused code in Python programs. This is useful for cleaning up and finding errors in large code bases. If you run Vulture on both your library and test suite you can find untested code. Due to Python's dynamic nature, static code analyzers like Vulture are likely to miss some dead code. Also, code that is only called implicitly may be reported as unused. Nonetheless, Vulture can be a very helpful tool for higher code quality. Download ======== https://github.com/jendrikseipp/vulture http://pypi.python.org/pypi/vulture Features ======== * fast: static code analysis * lightweight: only one module * tested: tests itself and has complete test coverage * complements pyflakes and has the same output syntax * supports Python 2.6, 2.7 and 3.x News ==== 0.21 (2017-07-26) ----------------- * If an unused item is defined multiple times, report it multiple times. * Make size estimates for function calls more accurate. * Create wheel files for Vulture (thanks @RJ722). Cheers, Jendrik

RELEASED] Python 3.4.7rc1 and Python 3.5.4rc1 are now available

by Larry Hastings

On behalf of the Python development community and the Python 3.4 and Python 3.5 release teams, I'm relieved to announce the availability of Python 3.4.7rc1 and Python 3.5.4rc1. Python 3.4 is now in "security fixes only" mode. This is the final stage of support for Python 3.4. Python 3.4 now only receives security fixes, not bug fixes, and Python 3.4 releases are source code only--no more official binary installers will be produced. Python 3.5.4 will be the final 3.5 release in "bug fix" mode. After 3.5.4 is released, Python 3.5 will also move into "security fixes mode". Both these releases are "release candidates". They should not be considered the final releases, although the final releases should contain only minor differences. Python users are encouraged to test with these releases and report any problems they encounter. You can find Python 3.4.7rc1 here: https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-347rc1/ And you can find Python 3.5.4rc1 here: https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-354rc1/ Python 3.4.7 final and Python 3.5.4 final are both scheduled for release on August 6th, 2017. Happy Pythoning, //arry/
