CPython Google Summer of Code mentors needed: deadline is tomorrow
by Jessica McKellar 13 Feb '14

13 Feb '14

Hi folks, Terri Oda's original message to this list about CPython's participation in Google Summer of Code 2014 is at the end of this email. If you'd like to see CPython participate in Google Summer of Code 2014, we need* at least 2 people* to say they are interested in mentoring by the end of today, February 13th. *Are you interested in mentoring? Please speak up!* This is not a binding commitment; this is just a statement of interest. As a previous GSoC mentor, I'd say the time commitment is around 10 hours / week per student, and this is best split across 2 mentors. GSoC FAQ: https://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/document/show/gsoc_program/google/gsoc2… The current umbrella project pages: https://wiki.python.org/moin/SummerOfCode/2014#Project_Ideas Last year's umbrella project pages: https://wiki.python.org/moin/SummerOfCode/2013#Project_Ideas Last year's CPython project ideas: https://wiki.python.org/moin/SummerOfCode/2013/python-core Regards, -Jessica === Terri's original message: For anyone who completely isn't familiar with this: Google Summer of Code is a program where Google pays students to work on open source projects for the summer. The motto goes: "Flip bits, not burgers." Google Summer of Code applications are open for mentoring organizations, and I've already put in Python's application. You can get more info here: https://wiki.python.org/moin/SummerOfCode/2014 What I'd like to know is if anyone's got any good ideas for core python projects this year and are interested in mentoring. We always have lots of students who'd like to work on Python, but right now we don't have any mentors who are available and interested in helping students make contributions to the language (We do, however, have mentors for various python sub-projects). Let me know if this might be interesting to you. I'm happy to answer any questions, and I've got experienced mentors who aren't core python devs but who'd be willing to pair up so you wouldn't have to go it alone, just let me know! Terri PS - I'm also looking for new sub-projects and other mentors -- just ask if you want to take part this year!

[RELEASED] Python 3.4.0 release candidate 1
by Larry Hastings 12 Feb '14

12 Feb '14

On behalf of the Python development team, I'm delighted to announce the first release candidate of Python 3.4. This is a preview release, and its use is not recommended for production settings. Python 3.4 includes a range of improvements of the 3.x series, including hundreds of small improvements and bug fixes. Major new features and changes in the 3.4 release series include: * PEP 428, a "pathlib" module providing object-oriented filesystem paths * PEP 435, a standardized "enum" module * PEP 436, a build enhancement that will help generate introspection information for builtins * PEP 442, improved semantics for object finalization * PEP 443, adding single-dispatch generic functions to the standard library * PEP 445, a new C API for implementing custom memory allocators * PEP 446, changing file descriptors to not be inherited by default in subprocesses * PEP 450, a new "statistics" module * PEP 451, standardizing module metadata for Python's module import system * PEP 453, a bundled installer for the *pip* package manager * PEP 454, a new "tracemalloc" module for tracing Python memory allocations * PEP 456, a new hash algorithm for Python strings and binary data * PEP 3154, a new and improved protocol for pickled objects * PEP 3156, a new "asyncio" module, a new framework for asynchronous I/O Python 3.4 is now in "feature freeze", meaning that no new features will be added. The final release is projected for mid-March 2014. To download Python 3.4.0rc1 visit: http://www.python.org/download/releases/3.4.0/ Please consider trying Python 3.4.0rc1 with your code and reporting any new issues you notice to: http://bugs.python.org/ Enjoy! -- Larry Hastings, Release Manager larry at hastings.org (on behalf of the entire python-dev team and 3.4's contributors)

Are we going to have so many of these things that memory is an issue? The asserts in the code -- those are not for checking user input, correct? -- ~Ethan~

Is the PIP requirement too strict?
by Guido van Rossum 11 Feb '14

11 Feb '14

bugs.python.org/review (DEBUG = True)?
by Christopher Welborn 11 Feb '14

11 Feb '14

Is there a reason bugs.python.org/review is running in DEBUG mode right now? I was just poking around and came across the debug 'DoesNotExist' error page when accessing: http://bugs.python.org/review/rss/reviews/cjwelborn Then, instead of a 404 I get the 'Page not found' debug page. So, just glancing at the acceptable url patterns I see one that will give you a xsrf token (if you send the appropriate headers, which is easy). I'm not a web expert, so I don't know how dangerous it really is. But the error messages were really helpful (in a bad way?). This turned up an actual error. I'm pretty sure it's an actual error, though I could be wrong. It might be an 'expected error'. When accessing http://bugs.python.org/review/account , I got: KeyError at /review/account: 'AUTH_DOMAIN' /home/roundup/trackers/tracker/rietveld/codereview/views.py in account: domain = os.environ['AUTH_DOMAIN'] Maybe someone is doing some testing and I'm just wasting people's time. I thought it would be better to say something, so if it is a mistake someone can fix it. -- \¯\ /¯/\ \ \/¯¯\/ / / Christopher Welborn (cj) \__/\__/ / cjwelborn at live·com \__/\__/ http://welbornprod.com

[PATCH] Add an authorization header to the initial request.
by Matěj Cepl 11 Feb '14

11 Feb '14

Many websites (e.g. GitHub API) on the Internet are intentionally not following RFC with regards to the Basic Authorization and require Authorization header in the initial request and they never return 401 error. Therefore it is not possible to authorize with such websites just using urllib2.py HTTPBasicAuthHandler as described in documentation. However, RFC 2617, end of section 2 allows pre-authorization in the initial request: > A client MAY preemptively send the corresponding Authorization > header with requests for resources in that space without > receipt of another challenge from the server. (RFC also suggests preauthorization of proxy requests, but that is not part of this patch, however it could be trivially added) Also, generating HTTP BasicAuth header has been refactored into special method of AbstractBasicAuthHandler. Suggested fix for bug# 19494 This is my first attempt to contribute to Python itself, so please be gentle with me. Yes, I know that I miss unit tests and port to other branches of Python (this is against 2.7), but I would like first some feedback to see what I am missing (aside from the mentioned).

We could really use more help reviewing and finishing asyncio's docs! ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Victor Stinner <victor.stinner(a)gmail.com> Date: Sat, Feb 8, 2014 at 2:38 PM Subject: [python-tulip] Need help to finish asyncio documentation To: python-tulip <python-tulip(a)googlegroups.com> Hi, I wrote most parts of the documentation of the asyncio module, but I'm not sure that anyone already read it yet. Can you please at least take at look? http://docs.python.org/dev/library/asyncio.html Tell me if the documentation needs more examples. I don't want to add whole applications, only very short examples to explain one feature or concept, or show how to use one specific API. I just realized that add/remove_reader/writer() methods of the event loop were not documented, sock_recv/sendall/accept/connect() methods neither. I documented them. There are still many functions which only have "XXX" for documentation. If you would like to contribute, send patches on .rst files.

Getting Introduced with the Community and Looking forward to Contribute to the Project as part of Gsoc 2014
by Nitika 09 Feb '14

09 Feb '14

Hi, Firstly I, Nitika would like to introduce myself to the developers of this commmunity. I am currently pursuing Computer Science and Engineering at Netaji Subhash Institute of Technology INDIA. I have been following the discussions on the mailing list for past few months. I had got an indepth knowledge of the tools used for the development of open source software. My skills include Programming languages: GNU C/C++, Python, Javascript, Version control systems Git/Github and SVN. I am also aware with many of the web development application tools and content management systems. I am an ambitous person willing to learn other technologies when need in future. I choose this organisation for the contribution as the work the community does looks very appealing and interesting to me and useful for the whole community. The skills used by the organisation for the development of open source software matches with my skills to much extent. I had installed the required necessary tools and setup the environment in my system needed for the contribution to open source software. I had got myself aware of the source to some extent and had forked on my github account. I had also read the contribution, development tutorial on the community webpage. I would like to seek the mentors help in the selection of the project for which the idea has been proposed for the Gsoc and someone is willing to mentor the project idea. I will highly appreciate with any kind of help, guidance from the mentors to help me move forward to contribute to the software starting off with some easy tasks and then moving levels higher so as to make a strong proposal for the upcoming Google Summer of Code 2014.

The docstring hack for signature information has to go
by Larry Hastings 09 Feb '14

09 Feb '14

A quick summary of the context: currently in CPython 3.4, a builtin function can publish its "signature" as a specially encoded line at the top of its docstring. CPython internally detects this line inside PyCFunctionObject.__doc__ and skips past it, and there's a new getter at PyCFunctionObject.__text_signature__ that returns just this line. As an example, the signature for os.stat looks like this: sig=($module, path, *, dir_fd=None, follow_symlinks=True) The convention is, if you have this signature, you shouldn't have your docstring start with a handwritten signature like 3.3 and before. help() on a callable displays the signature automatically if it can, so if you *also* had a handwritten signature, help() would show two signatures. That would look dumb. ----- So here's the problem. Let's say you want to write an extension that will work with Python 3.3 and 3.4, using the stable ABI. If you don't add this line, then in 3.4 you won't have introspection information, drat. But if you *do* add this line, your docstring will look mildly stupid in 3.3, because it'll have this unsightly "sig=(" line at the top. And it *won't* have a nice handwritten docstring. (And if you added both a sig= signature *and* a handwritten signature, in 3.4 it would display both. That would also look dumb.) I can't figure out any way to salvage this "first line of the docstring" approach. So I think we have to abandon it, and do this the hard way: extend the PyMethodDef structure. I propose three different variations. I prefer B, but I'm guessing Guido would prefer the YAGNI approach, which is A: A: We create a PyMethodDefEx structure with an extra field: "const char *signature". We add a new METH_SIGNATURE (maybe just METH_SIG?) flag to the flags, indicating that this is an extended structure. When iterating over the PyMethodDefs, we know how far to advance the pointer based on this flag. B: Same as A, but we add three unused pointers (void *reserved1 etc) to PyMethodDefEx to give us some room to grow. C: Same as A, but we add two fields to PyMethodDefEx. The second new field identifies the "version" of the structure, telling us its size somehow. Like the lStructSize field of the OPENFILENAME structure in Win32. I suspect YAGNI. ----- But that only fixes part of the problem. Our theoretical extension that wants to be binary-compatible with 3.3 and 3.4 still has a problem: how can they support signatures? They can't give PyMethodDefEx structures to 3.3, it will blow up. But if they don't use PyMethodDefEx, they can't have signatures. Solution: we write a function (which users would have to copy into their extension) that gives a PyMethodDefEx array to 3.4+, but converts it into a PyMethodDef array for 3.3. The tricky part there: what do we do about the docstring? The convention for builtins is to have the first line(s) contain a handwritten signature. But you *don't* want that if you provide a signature, because help() will read that signature and automatically render this first line for you. I can suggest four options here, and of these I like P best: M: Don't do anything. Docstrings with real signature information and a handwritten signature in the docstring will show two signatures in 3.4+, docstrings without any handwritten signature won't display their signature in help in 3.3. (Best practice for modules compiled for 3.4+ is probably: skip the handwritten signature. Users would have to do without in 3.3.) N: Leave the handwritten signature in the docstring, then when registering for 3.4+ add a second flag called METH_33_COMPAT that means "when displaying help for this function, don't automatically generate that first line." O: Have the handwritten signature in the docstring. When registering the function for 3.3, have the PyMethodDef docstring point to the it starting at the signature. When registering the function for 3.4+, have the docstring in the PyMethodDefEx point to the first byte after the handwritten signature. Note that automatically skipping the signature with a heuristic is mildly complicated, so this may be hard to get right. P: Have the handwritten signature in the docstring, and have separate static PyMethodDef and PyMethodDefEx arrays. The PyMethodDef docstring points to the docstring like normal. The PyMethodDefEx docstring field points to the first byte after the handwritten signature. This makes the registration "function" very simple: if it's 3.3 or before, use the PyMethodDef array, if it's 3.4+ use the PyMethodDefEx array. (Argument Clinic could theoretically automate coding some or all of this.) It's late and my brain is only working so well. I'd be interested in other approaches if people can suggest something good. Sorry about the mess, //arry/

Google Summer of Code 2014: Looking for core python mentors!
by Terri Oda 06 Feb '14

06 Feb '14

For anyone who completely isn't familiar with this: Google Summer of Code is a program where Google pays students to work on open source projects for the summer. The motto goes: "Flip bits, not burgers." Google Summer of Code applications are open for mentoring organizations, and I've already put in Python's application. You can get more info here: https://wiki.python.org/moin/SummerOfCode/2014 What I'd like to know is if anyone's got any good ideas for core python projects this year and are interested in mentoring. We always have lots of students who'd like to work on Python, but right now we don't have any mentors who are available and interested in helping students make contributions to the language (We do, however, have mentors for various python sub-projects). Let me know if this might be interesting to you. I'm happy to answer any questions, and I've got experienced mentors who aren't core python devs but who'd be willing to pair up so you wouldn't have to go it alone, just let me know! Terri PS - I'm also looking for new sub-projects and other mentors -- just ask if you want to take part this year!

ReST documents

My apologies if this is a stupid question (actually, two stupid questions! ;) , but: - is there someplace I can look to see what all the meta commands mean? Things like :class: or .. index:: pair: class; constructor - when I click on a link (using FireFox 16.0.1) instead of showing the title of that section (such as IntEnum or object.__init__) it shows the paragraph immediately following. I think it would be more helpful to show the title as well. Is this an issue with how we are creating the docs, or with FireFox? -- ~Ethan~

__doc__ regression
by Antoine Pitrou 04 Feb '14

04 Feb '14

Hello, Following the previous clinic thread, I realize that the latest signature improvements actually entail a regression in __doc__. Compare: $ ./python -c "print(dict.fromkeys.__doc__)" Returns a new dict with keys from iterable and values equal to value. $ python3.3 -c "print(dict.fromkeys.__doc__)" dict.fromkeys(S[,v]) -> New dict with keys from S and values equal to v. v defaults to None. As you see the signature string has vanished from the __doc__ contents. This means that any tool directly processing __doc__ attributes to generate (e.g.) automatic API docs will produce less useful docs. I think the signature should be restored, and a smarter way of reconciling __doc__ and the signature for help() should be found. Regards Antoine.

_PyUnicode_CheckConsistency() too strict?
by Phil Thompson 03 Feb '14

03 Feb '14

_PyUnicode_CheckConsistency() checks that the contents of the string matches the _KIND of the string. However it does this in a very strict manner, ie. that the contents *exactly* match the _KIND rather than just detecting an inconsistency between the contents and the _KIND. For example, a string created with a maxchar of 255 (ie. a Latin-1 string) must contain at least one character in the range 128-255 otherwise you get an assertion failure. As it stands, when converting Latin-1 strings in my C extension module I must first check each character and specify a maxchar of 127 if the strings happens to only contain ASCII characters. What is the reasoning behind the checks being so strict? Phil

Guidance regarding what counts as breaking backwards compatibility
by Steven D'Aprano 03 Feb '14

03 Feb '14

Hi all, Over on the Python-ideas list, there's a thread about the new statistics module, and as the author of that module, I'm looking for a bit of guidance regarding backwards compatibility. Specifically two issues: (1) With numeric code, what happens if the module become more[1] accurate in the future? Does that count as breaking backwards compatibility? E.g. Currently I use a particular algorithm for calculating variance. Suppose that for a particular data set, this algorithm is accurate to (say) seven decimal places: # Python 3.4 variance(some_data) == 1.23456700001 Later, I find a better algorithm, which improves the accuracy of the result: # Python 3.5 or 3.6 variance(some_data) == 1.23456789001 Would this count as breaking backwards compatibility? If so, how should I handle this? I don't claim that the current implementation of the statistics module is optimal, as far as precision and accuracy is concerned. It may improve in the future. Or would that count as a bug-fix? "Variance function was inaccurate, now less wrong", perhaps. I suppose the math module has the same issue, except that it just wraps the C libraries, which are mature and stable and unlikely to change. The random module has a similar issue: http://docs.python.org/3/library/random.html#notes-on-reproducibility (2) Mappings[2] are iterable. That means that functions which expect sequences or iterators may also operate on mappings by accident. For example, sum({1: 100, 2: 200}) returns 3. If one wanted to reserve the opportunity to handle mappings specifically in the future, without being locked in by backwards-compatibility, how should one handle it? a) document that behaviour with mappings is unsupported and may change in the future; b) raise a warning when passed a mapping, but still iterate over it; c) raise an exception and refuse to iterate over the mapping; d) something else? Question (2) is of course a specific example of a more general question, to what degree is the library author responsible for keeping backwards compatibility under circumstances which are not part of the intended API, but just work by accident? [1] Or, for the sake of the argument, less accurate. [2] And sets. -- Steven

News from asyncio
by Victor Stinner 02 Feb '14

02 Feb '14

Hi, I'm working for eNovance on the asyncio module, the goal is to use it in the huge OpenStack project (2.5 millions line of code) which currently uses eventlet. I'm trying to fix remaining issues in the asyncio module before Python 3.4 final. The asyncio project is very active but discussions are splitted between its own dedicated mailing list (python-tulip Google group), Tulip bug tracker and Python bug tracker. Please join Tulip mailing list if you are interested to contribute. http://code.google.com/p/tulip/ I would like to share with you the status of the module. Many bugs have been fixed recently. I suppose that new bugs are found because new developers started to play with asyncio since Python 3.4 beta 1. asyncio issues fixed in Python 3.4 beta 3, in a random order: - I wrote most of the asyncio documentation, please help me to improve it! I tried to add many short examples, each time explaining one feature or concept (ex: callbacks, signals, futures, etc.): http://docs.python.org/dev/library/asyncio.html - Characters devices (TTY/PTY) are now supported, useful to control real terminal (not pipes) for subprocesses. On Mac OS X older than Maverick (10.9), the SelectSelector should be used instead of KqueueSelector (kqueue didnd't support character devices) - Tulip #111: StreamReader.readexactly() now raises an IncompleteReadError if the end of stream is reached before we received enough bytes, instead of returning less bytes than requested. - Python #20311: asyncio had a performance issue related to the resolution of selectors and clocks. For example, selectors.EpollSelector has a resolution of 1 millisecond (10^-3), whereas asyncio uses arbitrary timestamps. The issue was fixed by adding a resolution attribute to selectors and a private granularity attribute to asyncio.BaseEventLoop, and use the granularity in asyncio event loop to round times. - New Task.current_task() class method - Guido wrote a web crawler, see examples/crawl.py in Tulip - More symbols are exported in the main asyncio module (ex: Queue, iscouroutine(), etc.) - Charles-François improved the signal handlers: SA_RESTART flag is now set to limit EINTR errors in syscalls - Some optimizations (ex: don't call logger.log() when it's not needed) - Many bugfixes - (sorry if I forgot other changes, see also Tulip history and history of the asyncio module in Python) I also would like to change asyncio to support a "stream-like" API for subprocesses, see Tulip issue #115 (and Python issue #20400): http://code.google.com/p/tulip/issues/detail?id=115 I ported ayncio on Python 2.6 and 2.7, because today OpenStack only uses these Python versions. I created a new project called "Trollius" (instead of "Tulip") because the syntax is a little bit different. "yield from" becomes "yield", and "return x" becomes "raise Return(x)": https://bitbucket.org/enovance/trollius https://pypi.python.org/pypi/trollius If you are interested by the OpenStack part, see my blueprint (something similar to PEPs but for smaller changes) for Oslo Messaing: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Oslo/blueprints/asyncio There is an ongoing effort to port OpenStack to Python 3, eNovance is also working on the portage: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Python3 Victor
