+Six: Python 2 and 3 Compatibility Library
+=========================================
+
+.. module:: six
+ :synopsis: Python 2 and 3 compatibility
+
+.. moduleauthor:: Benjamin Peterson <benjamin@python.org>
+.. sectionauthor:: Benjamin Peterson <benjamin@python.org>
+
+
+Six provides simple utilities for wrapping over differences between Python 2 and
+Python 3. It is intended to support codebases that work on both Python 2 and 3
+without modification. six consists of only one Python file, so it is painless
+to copy into a project.
+
+Six can be downloaded on `PyPi <http://pypi.python.org/pypi/six/>`_. Its bug
+tracker and code hosting is on `BitBucket <http://bitbucket.org/gutworth/six>`_.
+
+The name, "six", comes from the fact that 2*3 equals 6. Why not addition?
+Multiplication is more powerful, and, anyway, "five" has already been snatched
+away by the (admittedly now moribund) Zope Five project.
+

+Package contents
+----------------
+
+.. data:: PY2
+
+ A boolean indicating if the code is running on Python 2.
+
+.. data:: PY3
+
+ A boolean indicating if the code is running on Python 3.
+
+
+Constants
+>>>>>>>>>
+
+Six provides constants that may differ between Python versions. Ones ending
+``_types`` are mostly useful as the second argument to ``isinstance`` or
+``issubclass``.
+
+
+.. data:: class_types
+
+ Possible class types. In Python 2, this encompasses old-style and new-style
+ classes. In Python 3, this is just new-styles.
+
+
+.. data:: integer_types
+
+ Possible integer types. In Python 2, this is :func:`py2:long` and
+ :func:`py2:int`, and in Python 3, just :func:`py3:int`.
+
+
+.. data:: string_types
+
+ Possible types for text data. This is :func:`py2:basestring` in Python 2 and
+ :func:`py3:str` in Python 3.
+
+
+.. data:: text_type
+
+ Type for representing (Unicode) textual data. This is :func:`py2:unicode` in
+ Python 2 and :func:`py3:str` in Python 3.
+
+
+.. data:: binary_type
+
+ Type for representing binary data. This is :func:`py2:str` in Python 2 and
+ :func:`py3:bytes` in Python 3.
+
+
+.. data:: MAXSIZE
+
+ The maximum size of a container like :func:`py3:list` or :func:`py3:dict`.
+ This is equivalent to :data:`py3:sys.maxsize` in Python 2.6 and later
+ (including 3.x). Note, this is temptingly similar to, but not the same as
+ :data:`py2:sys.maxint` in Python 2. There is no direct equivalent to
+ :data:`py2:sys.maxint` in Python 3 because its integer type has no limits
+ aside from memory.
+
+
+Here's example usage of the module::
+
+ import six
+
+ def dispatch_types(value):
+ if isinstance(value, six.integer_types):
+ handle_integer(value)
+ elif isinstance(value, six.class_types):
+ handle_class(value)
+ elif isinstance(value, six.string_types):
+ handle_string(value)
+
+
+Object model compatibility
+>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
+
+Python 3 renamed the attributes of several intepreter data structures. The
+following accessors are available. Note that the recommended way to inspect
+functions and methods is the stdlib :mod:`py3:inspect` module.
+
+
+.. function:: get_unbound_function(meth)
+
+ Get the function out of unbound method *meth*. In Python 3, unbound methods
+ don't exist, so this function just returns *meth* unchanged. Example
+ usage::
+
+ from six import get_unbound_function
+
+ class X(object):
+ def method(self):
+ pass
+ method_function = get_unbound_function(X.method)
+
+
+.. function:: get_method_function(meth)
+
+ Get the function out of method object *meth*.
+
+
+.. function:: get_method_self(meth)
+
+ Get the ``self`` of bound method *meth*.
+
+
+.. function:: get_function_closure(func)
+
+ Get the closure (list of cells) associated with *func*. This is equivalent
+ to ``func.__closure__`` on Python 2.6+ and ``func.func_closure`` on Python
+ 2.5.
+
+
+.. function:: get_function_code(func)
+
+ Get the code object associated with *func*. This is equivalent to
+ ``func.__code__`` on Python 2.6+ and ``func.func_code`` on Python 2.5.
+
+
+.. function:: get_function_defaults(func)
+
+ Get the defaults tuple associated with *func*. This is equivalent to
+ ``func.__defaults__`` on Python 2.6+ and ``func.func_defaults`` on Python
+ 2.5.
+
+
+.. function:: get_function_globals(func)
+
+ Get the globals of *func*. This is equivalent to ``func.__globals__`` on
+ Python 2.6+ and ``func.func_globals`` on Python 2.5.
+
+
+.. function:: next(it)
+ advance_iterator(it)
+
+ Get the next item of iterator *it*. :exc:`py3:StopIteration` is raised if
+ the iterator is exhausted. This is a replacement for calling ``it.next()``
+ in Python 2 and ``next(it)`` in Python 3.
+
+
+.. function:: callable(obj)
+
+ Check if *obj* can be called. Note ``callable`` has returned in Python 3.2,
+ so using six's version is only necessary when supporting Python 3.0 or 3.1.
+
+
+.. function:: iterkeys(dictionary, **kwargs)
+
+ Returns an iterator over *dictionary*\'s keys. This replaces
+ ``dictionary.iterkeys()`` on Python 2 and ``dictionary.keys()`` on
+ Python 3. *kwargs* are passed through to the underlying method.
+
+
+.. function:: itervalues(dictionary, **kwargs)
+
+ Returns an iterator over *dictionary*\'s values. This replaces
+ ``dictionary.itervalues()`` on Python 2 and ``dictionary.values()`` on
+ Python 3. *kwargs* are passed through to the underlying method.
+
+
+.. function:: iteritems(dictionary, **kwargs)
+
+ Returns an iterator over *dictionary*\'s items. This replaces
+ ``dictionary.iteritems()`` on Python 2 and ``dictionary.items()`` on
+ Python 3. *kwargs* are passed through to the underlying method.
+
+
+.. function:: iterlists(dictionary, **kwargs)
+
+ Calls ``dictionary.iterlists()`` on Python 2 and ``dictionary.lists()`` on
+ Python 3. No builtin Python mapping type has such a method; this method is
+ intended for use with multi-valued dictionaries like `Werkzeug's
+ <http://werkzeug.pocoo.org/docs/datastructures/#werkzeug.datastructures.MultiDict>`_.
+ *kwargs* are passed through to the underlying method.
+
+
+.. function:: viewkeys(dictionary)
+
+ Return a view over *dictionary*\'s keys. This replaces
+ :meth:`py2:dict.viewkeys` on Python 2.7 and :meth:`py3:dict.keys` on
+ Python 3.
+
+
+.. function:: viewvalues(dictionary)
+
+ Return a view over *dictionary*\'s values. This replaces
+ :meth:`py2:dict.viewvalues` on Python 2.7 and :meth:`py3:dict.values` on
+ Python 3.
+
+
+.. function:: viewitems(dictionary)
+
+ Return a view over *dictionary*\'s items. This replaces
+ :meth:`py2:dict.viewitems` on Python 2.7 and :meth:`py3:dict.items` on
+ Python 3.
+
+
+.. function:: create_bound_method(func, obj)
+
+ Return a method object wrapping *func* and bound to *obj*. On both Python 2
+ and 3, this will return a :func:`py3:types.MethodType` object. The reason
+ this wrapper exists is that on Python 2, the ``MethodType`` constructor
+ requires the *obj*'s class to be passed.
+
+
+.. function:: create_unbound_method(func, cls)
+
+ Return an unbound method object wrapping *func*. In Python 2, this will
+ return a :func:`py2:types.MethodType` object. In Python 3, unbound methods
+ do not exist and this wrapper will simply return *func*.
+
+
+.. class:: Iterator
+
+ A class for making portable iterators. The intention is that it be subclassed
+ and subclasses provide a ``__next__`` method. In Python 2, :class:`Iterator`
+ has one method: ``next``. It simply delegates to ``__next__``. An alternate
+ way to do this would be to simply alias ``next`` to ``__next__``. However,
+ this interacts badly with subclasses that override
+ ``__next__``. :class:`Iterator` is empty on Python 3. (In fact, it is just
+ aliased to :class:`py3:object`.)
+
+
+.. decorator:: wraps(wrapped, assigned=functools.WRAPPER_ASSIGNMENTS, updated=functools.WRAPPER_UPDATES)
+
+ This is exactly the :func:`py3:functools.wraps` decorator, but it sets the
+ ``__wrapped__`` attribute on what it decorates as :func:`py3:functools.wraps`
+ does on Python versions after 3.2.
+
+
+Syntax compatibility
+>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
+
+These functions smooth over operations which have different syntaxes between
+Python 2 and 3.
+
+
+.. function:: exec_(code, globals=None, locals=None)
+
+ Execute *code* in the scope of *globals* and *locals*. *code* can be a
+ string or a code object. If *globals* or *locals* are not given, they will
+ default to the scope of the caller. If just *globals* is given, it will also
+ be used as *locals*.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Python 3's :func:`py3:exec` doesn't take keyword arguments, so calling
+ :func:`exec` with them should be avoided.
+
+
+.. function:: print_(*args, *, file=sys.stdout, end="\\n", sep=" ", flush=False)
+
+ Print *args* into *file*. Each argument will be separated with *sep* and
+ *end* will be written to the file after the last argument is printed. If
+ *flush* is true, ``file.flush()`` will be called after all data is written.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ In Python 2, this function imitates Python 3's :func:`py3:print` by not
+ having softspace support. If you don't know what that is, you're probably
+ ok. :)
+
+
+.. function:: raise_from(exc_value, exc_value_from)
+
+ Raise an exception from a context. On Python 3, this is equivalent to
+ ``raise exc_value from exc_value_from``. On Python 2, which does not support
+ exception chaining, it is equivalent to ``raise exc_value``.
+
+
+.. function:: reraise(exc_type, exc_value, exc_traceback=None)
+
+ Reraise an exception, possibly with a different traceback. In the simple
+ case, ``reraise(*sys.exc_info())`` with an active exception (in an except
+ block) reraises the current exception with the last traceback. A different
+ traceback can be specified with the *exc_traceback* parameter. Note that
+ since the exception reraising is done within the :func:`reraise` function,
+ Python will attach the call frame of :func:`reraise` to whatever traceback is
+ raised.
+
+
+.. function:: with_metaclass(metaclass, *bases)
+
+ Create a new class with base classes *bases* and metaclass *metaclass*. This
+ is designed to be used in class declarations like this: ::
+
+ from six import with_metaclass
+
+ class Meta(type):
+ pass
+
+ class Base(object):
+ pass
+
+ class MyClass(with_metaclass(Meta, Base)):
+ pass
+
+ Another way to set a metaclass on a class is with the :func:`add_metaclass`
+ decorator.
+
+
+.. decorator:: add_metaclass(metaclass)
+
+ Class decorator that replaces a normally-constructed class with a
+ metaclass-constructed one. Example usage: ::
+
+ @add_metaclass(Meta)
+ class MyClass(object):
+ pass
+
+ That code produces a class equivalent to ::
+
+ class MyClass(object, metaclass=Meta):
+ pass
+
+ on Python 3 or ::
+
+ class MyClass(object):
+ __metaclass__ = MyMeta
+
+ on Python 2.
+
+ Note that class decorators require Python 2.6. However, the effect of the
+ decorator can be emulated on Python 2.5 like so::
+
+ class MyClass(object):
+ pass
+ MyClass = add_metaclass(Meta)(MyClass)
+
+
+Binary and text data
+>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
+
+Python 3 enforces the distinction between byte strings and text strings far more
+rigoriously than Python 2 does; binary data cannot be automatically coerced to
+or from text data. six provides several functions to assist in classifying
+string data in all Python versions.
+
+
+.. function:: b(data)
+
+ A "fake" bytes literal. *data* should always be a normal string literal. In
+ Python 2, :func:`b` returns a 8-bit string. In Python 3, *data* is encoded
+ with the latin-1 encoding to bytes.
+
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Since all Python versions 2.6 and after support the ``b`` prefix,
+ :func:`b`, code without 2.5 support doesn't need :func:`b`.
+
+
+.. function:: u(text)
+
+ A "fake" unicode literal. *text* should always be a normal string literal.
+ In Python 2, :func:`u` returns unicode, and in Python 3, a string. Also, in
+ Python 2, the string is decoded with the ``unicode-escape`` codec, which
+ allows unicode escapes to be used in it.
+
+
+ .. note::
+
+ In Python 3.3, the ``u`` prefix has been reintroduced. Code that only
+ supports Python 3 versions of 3.3 and higher thus does not need
+ :func:`u`.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ On Python 2, :func:`u` doesn't know what the encoding of the literal
+ is. Each byte is converted directly to the unicode codepoint of the same
+ value. Because of this, it's only safe to use :func:`u` with strings of
+ ASCII data.
+
+
+.. function:: unichr(c)
+
+ Return the (Unicode) string representing the codepoint *c*. This is
+ equivalent to :func:`py2:unichr` on Python 2 and :func:`py3:chr` on Python 3.
+
+
+.. function:: int2byte(i)
+
+ Converts *i* to a byte. *i* must be in ``range(0, 256)``. This is
+ equivalent to :func:`py2:chr` in Python 2 and ``bytes((i,))`` in Python 3.
+
+
+.. function:: byte2int(bs)
+
+ Converts the first byte of *bs* to an integer. This is equivalent to
+ ``ord(bs[0])`` on Python 2 and ``bs[0]`` on Python 3.
+
+
+.. function:: indexbytes(buf, i)
+
+ Return the byte at index *i* of *buf* as an integer. This is equivalent to
+ indexing a bytes object in Python 3.
+
+
+.. function:: iterbytes(buf)
+
+ Return an iterator over bytes in *buf* as integers. This is equivalent to
+ a bytes object iterator in Python 3.
+
+
+.. data:: StringIO
+
+ This is an fake file object for textual data. It's an alias for
+ :class:`py2:StringIO.StringIO` in Python 2 and :class:`py3:io.StringIO` in
+ Python 3.
+
+
+.. data:: BytesIO
+
+ This is a fake file object for binary data. In Python 2, it's an alias for
+ :class:`py2:StringIO.StringIO`, but in Python 3, it's an alias for
+ :class:`py3:io.BytesIO`.
+
+
+.. decorator:: python_2_unicode_compatible
+
+ A class decorator that takes a class defining a ``__str__`` method. On
+ Python 3, the decorator does nothing. On Python 2, it aliases the
+ ``__str__`` method to ``__unicode__`` and creates a new ``__str__`` method
+ that returns the result of ``__unicode__()`` encoded with UTF-8.
+
+
+unittest assertions
+>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
+
+Six contains compatibility shims for unittest assertions that have been renamed.
+The parameters are the same as their aliases, but you must pass the test method
+as the first argument. For example::
+
+ import six
+ import unittest
+
+ class TestAssertCountEqual(unittest.TestCase):
+ def test(self):
+ six.assertCountEqual(self, (1, 2), [2, 1])
+
+Note these functions are only available on Python 2.7 or later.
+
+.. function:: assertCountEqual()
+
+ Alias for :meth:`~py3:unittest.TestCase.assertCountEqual` on Python 3 and
+ :meth:`~py2:unittest.TestCase.assertItemsEqual` on Python 2.
+
+
+.. function:: assertRaisesRegex()
+
+ Alias for :meth:`~py3:unittest.TestCase.assertRaisesRegex` on Python 3 and
+ :meth:`~py2:unittest.TestCase.assertRaisesRegexp` on Python 2.
+
+
+.. function:: assertRegex()
+
+ Alias for :meth:`~py3:unittest.TestCase.assertRegex` on Python 3 and
+ :meth:`~py2:unittest.TestCase.assertRegexpMatches` on Python 2.
+
+
+Renamed modules and attributes compatibility
+>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
+
+.. module:: six.moves
+ :synopsis: Renamed modules and attributes compatibility
+
+Python 3 reorganized the standard library and moved several functions to
+different modules. Six provides a consistent interface to them through the fake
+:mod:`six.moves` module. For example, to load the module for parsing HTML on
+Python 2 or 3, write::
+
+ from six.moves import html_parser
+
+Similarly, to get the function to reload modules, which was moved from the
+builtin module to the ``imp`` module, use::
+
+ from six.moves import reload_module
+
+For the most part, :mod:`six.moves` aliases are the names of the modules in
+Python 3. When the new Python 3 name is a package, the components of the name
+are separated by underscores. For example, ``html.parser`` becomes
+``html_parser``. In some cases where several modules have been combined, the
+Python 2 name is retained. This is so the appropiate modules can be found when
+running on Python 2. For example, ``BaseHTTPServer`` which is in
+``http.server`` in Python 3 is aliased as ``BaseHTTPServer``.
+
+Some modules which had two implementations have been merged in Python 3. For
+example, ``cPickle`` no longer exists in Python 3; it was merged with
+``pickle``. In these cases, fetching the fast version will load the fast one on
+Python 2 and the merged module in Python 3.
+
+The :mod:`py2:urllib`, :mod:`py2:urllib2`, and :mod:`py2:urlparse` modules have
+been combined in the :mod:`py3:urllib` package in Python 3. The
+:mod:`six.moves.urllib` package is a version-independent location for this
+functionality; its structure mimics the structure of the Python 3
+:mod:`py3:urllib` package.
+
+.. note::
+
+ In order to make imports of the form::
+
+ from six.moves.cPickle import loads
+
+ work, six places special proxy objects in in :data:`py3:sys.modules`. These
+ proxies lazily load the underlying module when an attribute is fetched. This
+ will fail if the underlying module is not available in the Python
+ interpreter. For example, ``sys.modules["six.moves.winreg"].LoadKey`` would
+ fail on any non-Windows platform. Unfortunately, some applications try to
+ load attributes on every module in :data:`py3:sys.modules`. six mitigates
+ this problem for some applications by pretending attributes on unimportable
+ modules don't exist. This hack doesn't work in every case, though. If you are
+ encountering problems with the lazy modules and don't use any from imports
+ directly from ``six.moves`` modules, you can workaround the issue by removing
+ the six proxy modules::
+
+ d = [name for name in sys.modules if name.startswith("six.moves.")]
+ for name in d:
+ del sys.modules[name]
+

+<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
+
+.. currentmodule:: six
+
+It is possible to add additional names to the :mod:`six.moves` namespace.
+
+
+.. function:: add_move(item)
+
+ Add *item* to the :mod:`six.moves` mapping. *item* should be a
+ :class:`MovedAttribute` or :class:`MovedModule` instance.
+
+
+.. function:: remove_move(name)
+
+ Remove the :mod:`six.moves` mapping called *name*. *name* should be a
+ string.
+
+
+Instances of the following classes can be passed to :func:`add_move`. Neither
+have any public members.
+
+
+.. class:: MovedModule(name, old_mod, new_mod)
+
+ Create a mapping for :mod:`six.moves` called *name* that references different
+ modules in Python 2 and 3. *old_mod* is the name of the Python 2 module.
+ *new_mod* is the name of the Python 3 module.
+
+
+.. class:: MovedAttribute(name, old_mod, new_mod, old_attr=None, new_attr=None)
+
+ Create a mapping for :mod:`six.moves` called *name* that references different
+ attributes in Python 2 and 3. *old_mod* is the name of the Python 2 module.
+ *new_mod* is the name of the Python 3 module. If *new_attr* is not given, it
+ defaults to *old_attr*. If neither is given, they both default to *name*.
