Are there plans to support Python 3.12.1?

[RicardoEscobar]

I can't even install it:

...

      [end of output]

  note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.

We will support python 3.12. The toml file just needs updating and also there is the question of spark support which currently I'm not sure works with Python 3.12. Just need to work through those questions first, but at a minimum pandas should be able to work. I can take a look at this tomorrow morning and see the LoE involved.

@RicardoEscobar Seems like Spark still doesn't support 3.12 and the same with Ray (Fugue). So we might be stuck without 3.12 support for now.

Hi, just wondering if you have any update on supporting python 3.12.1?

Hey there, We do want to support it. Right now Spark has some compatibility issues. Are you using it for non-Spark use cases?

[mbrooksuk]

Hi, yes, purely in a python notebook, we're not using spark

[fdosani]

Maybe a compromise might be to allow it for Polars and Pandas only until Spark catches up.

Im very new to python, but datacompy is exactly the tool im looking for! My company only allows python 3.12.1, how would you allow it for pandas?

I'll need to make a change and cut a new release. Will try and come up with something shortly.

[fdosani]

@mbrooksuk You actually should be able to use Python 3.12 and install datacompy. There isn't any restriction that would stop you. The Spark stuff isn't guaranteed to work, but the pandas logic should. Would you be able to try it out?

Hi, will still receive the error below when trying to install datacompy in 3.12. It works fine 3.10:

Can you provide a output from: pip freeze please. Also I just released 0.12.1 if you want to try pip installing that. Should also note that many times with these types of errors it is some underlying library which is having issues building the package because of missing dependencies like compilers etc.

I'd also recommend trying to conda install datacompy

[RicardoEscobar]

I solved this issue. I'm preparing my answer to this. Tldr. Installing a previous version of pandas, I dont remember the number.

Hi, this worked for us, since the 0.12.1 release datacompy installed without any dependency errors. Thanks for sorting this!
