contextlib2 0.5.2

Backports and enhancements for the contextlib module

contextlib2 is a backport of the standard library’s contextlib module to earlier Python versions.

It also serves as a real world proving ground for possible future enhancements to the standard library version.

Development

contextlib2 currently has no dependencies.

Local testing is currently just a matter of running python test_contextlib2.py.

You can test against multiple versions of Python with tox:

pip install tox
tox

Versions currently tested in both tox and Travis CI are:

• CPython 2.6

• CPython 2.7

• CPython 3.4

• CPython 3.5

• CPython 3.6 (CPython development branch)

• PyPy

tox also has a PyPy3 configuration, but it is not configured in Travis due to a known incompatibility.

To install several of the relevant runtimes on Fedora 23:

sudo dnf install python python3 pypy pypy3
sudo dnf copr enable -y mstuchli/Python3.5
sudo dnf install python35-python3
