3.9.1: pytest is failing in 5 units

[kloczek]

I'm packaging your module as an rpm package so I'm using the typical PEP517 based build, install and test cycle used on building packages from non-root account.

• python3 -sBm build -w --no-isolation
• because I'm calling build with --no-isolation I'm using during all processes only locally installed modules
• install .whl file in </install/prefix>
• run pytest with $PYTHONPATH pointing to sitearch and sitelib inside </install/prefix>
• build is performed in env which is cut off from access to the public network (pytest is executed with -m "not network")

Here is pytest output:

+ PYTHONPATH=/home/tkloczko/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/python-twython-3.9.1-2.fc35.x86_64/usr/lib64/python3.8/site-packages:/home/tkloczko/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/python-twython-3.9.1-2.fc35.x86_64/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages
+ /usr/bin/pytest -ra -m 'not network'

I don't really do much for this library anymore (especially given the direction Twitter has taken with their API) nor do I believe it should be packaged in any format outside of typical Python-based package environments.

The latter is a position I've come around to over the years; I can't stop people from doing it and others have done in the past, but it's not something I'm going to spend time on. That said, as I can't stop you or others I can leave this open for collaboration and/or like-minded people finding one-another.

[CesarPazzi]

@ryanmcgrath If you are not maintaining the repo please put it Archive mode and let anyone know in the Readme that is not maintained anymore so we can get other options.

[ryanmcgrath]

No. Archive mode is for projects that are explicitly discontinued. I have not discontinued Twython as it still (surprisingly) sees decent usage in certain research and university course use-cases.

I've not actively maintained Twython in quite some time now, though. I'm long past the point in my life where I do free work to provide value to an actively hostile platform. That said, for a few years another contributor did quite a bit of work and I'm certainly still open to people PRing other things. That's how open source works and I'm happy to let others take the reigns and keep it going if they want to. The README has had very explicit block about a call for maintainers for a few years now for this reason.

tl;dr: People are still free to fork, hack on, or fix things. If a PR is worth merging I will eventually take a look and do a bump release - I'm just not doing it myself. If you feel like you want a Twitter Python API wrapper that's more actively maintained, I'd suggest looking at tweepy - they're another of the old guard that's to my knowledge more actively maintained.

What about add note that you are looking for new maintainer? 🤔

You mean like the one in the README since 2018?

[CyberBallistix]

Hello, did anyone found a solution since ?
