Cannot import deeplay with a version of python greater than 3.12 #153

Hi,

It seems that the 'deeplay' library cannot be imported when using python (3.13 or 3.14).

`
Error trace:Python 3.13.9 (main, Oct 14 2025, 13:52:31) [Clang 17.0.0 (clang-1700.3.19.1)] on darwin

import deeplay as dl

from re import A, T

ImportError: cannot import name 'T' from 're' (/opt/homebrew/Cellar/python@3.13/3.13.9_1/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.13/lib/python3.13/re/init.py)

Environment:

  • macOS (Apple Silicon)

  • Python: 3.13.9 (also reproduced on 3.14)

  • deeplay: Installed via pip in a fresh virtual environment

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Create a virtual environment using Python 3.13 or 3.14.

  2. pip install deeplay

  3. python -c "import deeplay"

Expected behavior:
Module imports successfully.

Actual behavior:
ImportError occurs due to ‎from re import A, T in ‎deeplay/blocks/base.py. The ‎re.T constant appears to be unavailable in Python ≥ 3.13.

Questions:

  • Is Python 3.13+ currently supported?

  • If not, is there a roadmap or planned fix to remove or replace the ‎re.T import?

Thank you for your answer
