pyre2 not working for match and search

[aih]

I've been using the pyre2 module successfully for a while; however, I recently updated both re2 and pyre2 yesterday, and it is not working for simple match and search functions. E.g. python re2.match('this', 'thisthat') prints a 1, but does not return anything.

I just posted a fix. Just curious, was this broken in a release? I'm pretty sure this was just development noise on master.

Thanks, Michael! I'm not sure if this answers your question, but I tried to install from pip and got an error related to pip.log. Then I downloaded and installed from master.

For future, how can I install a release version? The one on pypi is 2.20

Sorry for such a late reply to a closed thread but I just wanted to confirm that this bug does indeed exist in the pypi version 2.20.

Thanks Sean. It's never too late to get confirmation that I was not imagining things...

@axiak , this still appears broken in the 2.20 release on pypi (ie, not development noise on master). However, downloading from github and installing it myself, seems to work.

What is the process for pushing a new version to pypi?

Ping. I'm hitting the same issue. @axiak, can you cut a new release?

So, I met the fb-re2 guys at PyCon and they're on top of things. I recommend you use their pypi package which 1) works correctly and 2) is up to date and maintained: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/fb-re2
