delta/python-packages/psycopg2.git/lib/compat.py, branch register-bytes github.com: psycopg/psycopg2.git Drop 2to3 build step; make all code compatible with all Pythons 2017-12-12T04:26:58+00:00 Jon Dufresne jon.dufresne@gmail.com 2017-12-11T02:35:41+00:00 8ad2098b74ee90f341e69937a1503e29decf4594 Make all library code compatible with both Python 2 and Python 3. Helps move to modern Python idioms. Can now write for Python 3 (with workarounds for Python 2) instead of the other way around. In the future, when it is eventually time to drop Python 2, the library will be in a better position to remove workarounds Added a very small comparability module compat.py where required. It includes definitions for: - text_type -- A type. str on Python 3. unicode on Python 2. - string_types -- A tuple. Contains only str on Python 3. Contains str & unicode on Python 2.

Added a very small comparability module compat.py where required. It
includes definitions for:

- text_type -- A type. str on Python 3. unicode on Python 2.
- string_types -- A tuple. Contains only str on Python 3. Contains str &
                  unicode on Python 2.
