Amara3: first inklings (iri port)

[Uche Ogbuji]

Hi folks,

As promised, I have in mind to move Amara's capabilities to Python 3. As ever I'm struggling with time for th eproject, but luckily a work-related need came up recently to be able to at least use amara's comprehensive URI/IRI library in Python 3. As a result I just finished porting and distributing what becomes the first component of Amara 3. Even that turned out to be a fair chunk of work.

https://pypi.python.org/pypi/amara3-iri

I'm going to break up Amara 3 to make it a slightly less monolithic package. There will be amara3-xml, which will require amara3-iri, the base package, and will include the various XML processing bits, including XPath, etc.

Source code in development at least for now at:

https://github.com/uogbuji/amara3-iri

https://github.com/uogbuji/amara3-xml

Thanks all for your eternal patience.

Hi, Uche,

Thanks for your effort. I'm mostly working with scrapy (bs & lxml
based) now and I miss amara a lot :)

I'll take a look to your code soon.

Best regards,

Hi,

I second Luis' thoughts. I miss Amara. lxml does the job and is fast but its API is raw and not very friendly. 

Thanks Uche for that effort!
