pyasynchat 1.0.0

Make asynchat available for Python 3.12 onwards

Purpose

This package contains the asynchat module as found in Python versions prior to 3.12. It is provided so that existing code relying on import asynchat is able to continue being used without significant refactoring.

The module's source code is taken directly from the Python standard library. The specific version of asynchat.py used is the last update before the addition of removal warnings at import time, and is identical to the version provided with Python 3.9.

Please note that new projects should prefer asyncio.

Installation and usage

This version of asynchat is intended for Python 3.12 or later. It can be installed for earlier Python versions, but will have no effect, and the standard library version of asynchat will be used in its place.

Install the module using pip:

python -m pip install pyasynchat

Note that the PyPi module is named pyasynchat because creating modules with the same name as those provided by the standard library is not permitted. Usage is still via import asynchat.

Note also that this module relies on asyncore, and so also includes that module. See pyasyncore if only asyncore is required.

For guidance about using this module, see the official documentation.

Maintenance

Due to the fact that this module is no-longer supported, no further maintenance of the code in asynchat.py is intended. This project is only intended to be updated to make changes or improvements to the module packaging.
