Python 3

[Johan Jonkers]

Hello everyone,

I was wondering if there are plans to support python 3 for PyLucene. I
know there is an experimental Python 3 version of JCC but it is from
2010 I think, so a bit outdated. We would like to migrate from python
2.7 to 3.0 but we need PyLucene to work for that. Any information on
this matter, like perhaps a roadmap?, would be appreciated.

Regards,

Johan

Two things need to happen:
- the python 3 port of JCC needs to be revived (patches are welcome)
- the Lucene team needs to vote on releases for another release of
PyLucene to actually happen.

I prepared a PyLucene release candaidate for version 4.10.4 on March 10th
and called for a release vote then.

Only one PyLucene user responded and _no_ Lucene PMC members (besides
myself) voted on it. Without votes, no PyLucene releases can happen.

As it is, the project is dormant for lack of interest.

Hi,

Just a heads-up, I'm not a PyLucene user but a frequent user of JCC in
another context wrapping scientific libraries in java. I would appreciate a
Python 3 compatible JCC in the future, most libraries are now Python 3
compatible and I think in the future this will be the python standard for
scientific computing. Of my stack that I use today I think JCC is the only
library requiring python 2.

My programming skills are limited, but can provide debugging support :)

Agreed, it would be nice to revive that jcc branch and make it current. Patches are welcome !
