Development roadmap

===================

|
|
futurize script
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
1. "Safe" mode -- from Py2 to modern Py2 or Py3 to more-compatible Py3
|
|
|
|
- Split the fixers into two categories: safe and bold
|
|
- Safe is highly unlikely to break existing Py2 or Py3 support. The
|
|
output of this still requires :mod:`future` imports. Examples:
|
|
|
|
- Compatible metaclass syntax on Py3
|
|
- Explicit inheritance from object on Py3
|
|
|
|
- Bold might make assumptions about which strings on Py2 should be
|
|
unicode strings and which should be bytestrings.
|
|
|
|
- We should also build up a database of which standard library
|
|
interfaces on Py2 and Py3 accept unicode strings versus
|
|
byte-strings, which have changed, and which haven't.
|
|
|
|
2. Windows support
|
|
|
|
future package
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
- [Done] Add more tests for bytes ... preferably all from test_bytes.py in Py3.3.
|
|
- [Done] Add remove_hooks() and install_hooks() as functions in the
|
|
:mod:`future.standard_library` module. (See the uprefix module for how
|
|
to do this.)
|
|
|
|
Experimental:
|
|
- Add::
|
|
|
|
from future import bytes_literals
|
|
from future import new_metaclass_syntax
|
|
from future import new_style_classes
|
|
|
|
- [Done] Maybe::
|
|
|
|
from future.builtins import str
|
|
|
|
should import a custom str is a Py3 str-like object which inherits from unicode and
|
|
removes the decode() method and has any other Py3-like behaviours
|
|
(possibly stricter casting?)
