New PyPI launched, legacy PyPI shutting down April 30
by Laura Hampton 16 Apr '18

16 Apr '18

New PyPI launched, legacy PyPI shutting down April 30[1] Starting today, the canonical Python Package Index is at https://pypi.org and uses the new Warehouse codebase. We announced the https://pypi.org beta on March 26 and your feedback and test usage have helped us get it production-ready. Monday April 16 (2018-04-16): We launched the new PyPI, redirecting browser traffic and API calls (including "pip install") from pypi.python.org to the new site. The old codebase is still available at https://legacy.pypi.org for now. Monday April 30 (2018-04-30): We plan to shut down legacy PyPI https://legacy.pypi.org . The address pypi.python.org will continue to redirect to Warehouse. For more details, see our roadmap: https://wiki.python.org/psf/WarehouseRoadmap If your site/service links to or uses pypi.python.org, you should start using pypi.org instead: https://warehouse.readthedocs.io/api-reference/integration-guide/#migrating… Thank you.

Pip 10.0 has been released
by Paul Moore 14 Apr '18

14 Apr '18

On behalf of the PyPA, I am pleased to announce that pip 10.0 has just been released. This release has been the culmination of many months of work by the community. To install pip 10.0, you can run python -m pip install --upgrade pip or use get-pip, as described in https://pip.pypa.io/en/latest/installing. If you are using a version of pip supplied by your distribution vendor, vendor-supplied upgrades will be available in due course (or you can use pip 10 in a virtual environment). (One minor issue with using get-pip on Windows - when you download get-pip.py, rename it to something that doesn't include "pip" in the name, such as "gp.py", as the standard name triggers a check in pip that aborts the run - this is being tracked in https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/5219). Highlights of the new release: * Python 2.6 is no longer supported - if you need pip on Python 2.6, you should stay on pip 9, which is the last version to support Python 2.6. * Support for PEP 518, which allows projects to specify what packages they require in order to build from source. (PEP 518 support is currently limited, with full support coming in future versions - see the documentation for details). * Significant improvements in Unicode handling for non-ASCII locales on Windows. * A new "pip config" command. * The default upgrade strategy has become "only-if-needed" * Many bug fixes and minor improvements. In addition, the previously announced reorganisation of pip's internals has now taken place. Unless you are the author of code that imports the pip module (or a user of such code), this change will not affect you. If you are affected, please report the issue to the author of the offending code (refer them to https://mail.python.org/pipermail/distutils-sig/2017-October/031642.html for the details of the announcement). Thanks to everyone who put so much effort into the new release. Many of the contributions came from community members, whether in the form of code, participation in design discussions, or bug reports. The pip development team is extremely grateful to everyone in the community for their contributions. Thanks, Paul

ANN: psutil 5.4.4 is released
by Giampaolo Rodola' 13 Apr '18

13 Apr '18

Hello all, I'm glad to announce the release of psutil 5.4.4: https://github.com/giampaolo/psutil About ===== psutil (process and system utilities) is a cross-platform library for retrieving information on running processes and system utilization (CPU, memory, disks, network) in Python. It is useful mainly for system monitoring, profiling and limiting process resources and management of running processes. It implements many functionalities offered by command line tools such as: ps, top, lsof, netstat, ifconfig, who, df, kill, free, nice, ionice, iostat, iotop, uptime, pidof, tty, taskset, pmap. It currently supports Linux, Windows, OSX, Sun Solaris, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD and AIX, both 32-bit and 64-bit architectures, with Python versions from 2.6 to 3.6. PyPy is also known to work. What's new ========== 2018-04-13 **Enhancements** - #1239: [Linux] expose kernel "slab" memory for psutil.virtual_memory(). (patch by Maxime Mouial) **Bug fixes** - #694: [SunOS] cmdline() could be truncated at the 15th character when reading it from /proc. An extra effort is made by reading it from process address space first. (patch by Georg Sauthoff) - #771: [Windows] cpu_count() (both logical and physical) return a wrong (smaller) number on systems using process groups (> 64 cores). - #771: [Windows] cpu_times(percpu=True) return fewer CPUs on systems using process groups (> 64 cores). - #771: [Windows] cpu_stats() and cpu_freq() may return incorrect results on systems using process groups (> 64 cores). - #1193: [SunOS] Return uid/gid from /proc/pid/psinfo if there aren't enough permissions for /proc/pid/cred. (patch by Georg Sauthoff) - #1194: [SunOS] Return nice value from psinfo as getpriority() doesn't support real-time processes. (patch by Georg Sauthoff) - #1194: [SunOS] Fix double free in psutil_proc_cpu_num(). (patch by Georg Sauthoff) - #1194: [SunOS] Fix undefined behavior related to strict-aliasing rules and warnings. (patch by Georg Sauthoff) - #1210: [Linux] cpu_percent() steal time may remain stuck at 100% due to Linux erroneously reporting a decreased steal time between calls. (patch by Arnon Yaari) - #1216: fix compatibility with python 2.6 on Windows (patch by Dan Vinakovsky) - #1222: [Linux] Process.memory_full_info() was erroneously summing "Swap:" and "SwapPss:". Same for "Pss:" and "SwapPss". Not anymore. - #1224: [Windows] Process.wait() may erroneously raise TimeoutExpired. - #1238: [Linux] sensors_battery() may return None in case battery is not listed as "BAT0" under /sys/class/power_supply. - #1240: [Windows] cpu_times() float loses accuracy in a long running system. (patch by stswandering) - #1245: [Linux] sensors_temperatures() may fail with IOError "no such file". - #1255: [FreeBSD] swap_memory() stats were erroneously represented in KB. (patch by Denis Krienbühl) **Backward compatibility** - #771: [Windows] cpu_count(logical=False) on Windows XP and Vista is no longer supported and returns None.

unicode is a simple python command line utility that displays properties for a given unicode character, or searches unicode database for a given name. It was written with Linux in mind, but should work almost everywhere (including MS Windows and MacOSX), UTF-8 console is recommended. ˙pɹɐpuɐʇs əpoɔı̣uՈ əɥʇ ɟo əsn pəɔuɐʌpɐ puɐ səldı̣ɔuı̣ɹd əɥʇ ɓuı̣ʇɐɹʇsuoɯəp looʇ ɔı̣ʇɔɐpı̣p ʇuəlləɔxə uɐ sı̣ ʇI ˙sʇuı̣odəpoɔ ʇuəɹəɟɟı̣p ʎləʇəldɯoɔ ɓuı̣sn əlı̣ɥʍ 'sɥdʎlɓ ɟo ɯɐəɹʇs ɹɐlı̣ɯı̣s ʎllɐnsı̣ʌ oʇuı̣ ʇxəʇ əɥʇ ʇɹəʌuoɔ oʇ pɹɐpuɐʇs əpoɔı̣uՈ əɥʇ ɟo ɹəʍod llnɟ əɥʇ sʇı̣oldxə ʇɐɥʇ 'ʎʇı̣lı̣ʇn ,əpoɔɐɹɐd, oslɐ suı̣ɐʇuoɔ əɓɐʞɔɐd əɥ⊥ Changes since previous versions: * python3 is now the default version * fix crash when using Uxxxx (as opposed to U+xxxx) * do not display control characters in tabular output URL: http://kassiopeia.juls.savba.sk/~garabik/software/unicode.html License: GPL v3 -- ----------------------------------------------------------- | Radovan Garabík http://kassiopeia.juls.savba.sk/~garabik/ | | __..--^^^--..__ garabik @ kassiopeia.juls.savba.sk | ----------------------------------------------------------- Antivirus alert: file .signature infected by signature virus.

Python-based LUM shell released
by CJS Hayward 09 Apr '18

09 Apr '18

https://github.com/CJSHayward/psh A revamped version of an unofficial Python Shell ("psh") , an experimental shell intended to bring more power and expert-friendly UX to the Linux / Unix / Mac command line, has been released. Its main focus is to be an interactive command line shell that will let you use Python as the shell's (native) scripting language. It has other experimental niceties; for instance, you are not required to type a command when a command is obvious. If you give a directory name, it will change directory to that directory (an old-fashioned "ls" will still list the directory). If you type the name of a source file in the current directory (or current directory heirarchy!) it will pull it up in the editor. (You can circumvent this behavior by prefacing standard commands by "run"). The code is written to read like plain English and be hacker-friendly, and patches are of course welcome! (Slashdot submission at https://slashdot.org/submission/8078275/python-powered-linux--unix--mac-com…; please upvote if desired.) C.J.S. Hayward https://CJSHayward.com
