httk-core 2.0.0

httk₂ core functionality

httk-core

⚠️ PRE-RELEASE

The version assigned to httk-core designates the overall version of httk₂, and thus starts at v2.0.0. However, versions v2.0.* are to be considered prereleases, and semantic versioning will not be used until v2.1.0.

httk-core is the central lightweight dependency shared by httk₂ modules.

It provides:

• the httk.core package within the PEP 420 native httk namespace;
• shared view/backend and data-stream primitives; and
• plugin discovery and aggregate operations such as httk.core.load, to which other httk modules can register handlers.

Most users should install the httk2 metapackage, which selects a useful set of httk modules:

pip install httk2

Install only the core package with:

pip install httk-core

Other distributions, such as httk-io, install their own packages under the same httk namespace and can then be imported as httk.io.
