RFS: python-twython - Pure Python wrapper for the Twitter API

2014-05-01 Thread Josue Ortega 
Hi Team,
I am looking for a sponsor for my package and maitain it with the DPMT.
The package is python-twython Pure Python wrapper for the Twitter API.
This closes #739010 which is an ITP.
Here is some useful information about the package:
 Version : 3.1.2-1
 Upstream Author : Ryan McGrath 
 URL : https://github.com/ryanmcgrath/twython/tree/master
 License : MIT


It builds those binary packages:
python-twython - Pure Python wrapper for the Twitter API
python3-twython - Pure Python3 wrapper for the Twitter API

If you are interested you can get it on mentors[0] or in the SVN DPMT[1].

Thank you for your help.

Cheers

Just curious, how does this differ from python-twitter, which is
already in the archive? Do we need two different sets of python
wrappers around Twitter's API?

Vincent

Well, the things that differ from python twitter is that this package
already provides support for Python 3 and is under active development. 
Another features are: 
- Query data for:
- User information
- Twitter lists
- Timelines
- Direct Messages
- and anything found in `the docs `_
- Image Uploading:
- Update user status with an image
- Change user avatar
- Change user background image
- Change user banner image

Yeah I wondered the same thing.  The fact that upstream is very active and 
the python3 support conviced me to package it.
