installation error on python 3.3

[EnricoGiampieri]

Hi! I really like the job you are doing on funcy (even if it lacks a little on the inline documentation side :) ).
It works fine on python 2.7, but on python 3.3 it gives me the following error:

Installing collected packages: funcy
Running setup.py install for funcy
File "/usr/local/lib/python3.3/dist-packages/funcy/colls.py", line 88
return walk(lambda (k, v): (f(k), v), coll)
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

This is because in python 3 the lambda function cannot unpack tuple.
I installed it with:
pip install -U funcy

Yeah, and thats no surprise. It was not intended to run on python 3. And am I'm not going to support or maintain a python 3 port for now, sorry.

If a champion arises willing to handle all of this, I will surely support him. But there are more problems with python 3 than just lack of syntax features. There were some semantic changes as well (map and filter now return iterators) which need funcy to be adjusted - for now funcy is all in that func/ifunc semantics of python 2. I don't have a solid opinion what to do about that in python 3 funcy version and that adds up to my decision to avoid python 3 version for now.

If you are willing to be that champion or just have an idea how funcy should handle that ill python 3 semantics, I will be glad to hear it.

For now I have made a crude support for python 3 (it just needed some control on import exception, later i will try and do some more robust import method). How am i supposed to run the tests?

[Suor]

I don't really understand what you mean you did. For testing - what's wrong with py.test? You can also set up tox if you wish to test in several pythons at once.

[EnricoGiampieri]

sorry, written in a hurry and wasn't clear. I was wandering if there was an automated test suite, as I'm not familiar with py.test (I'm more used to unittest and nose). I just worked out how to do it, so I'm doing the tests right now...

[Suor]

Added python 3 support in 2b2ae11 and eb62cb2. Docs to be updated.

Really looking forward to this! Most of the OS components I've published will definitely use funcy once it supports python 3.3.

[Suor]

Python 3 supported in 0.9.

Also mind interface differences (some differently named functions) in python 3 http://funcy.readthedocs.org/en/latest/python3.html
