setting “python_requires” with ">=3.7" is a better way to declare Python compatibility
Hello!
I noticed that "amcrest" use a Python3-specific syntax rule "f_string", which lead to installation failure of Inject in Python 2. And there is such a declaration.
classifiers=[
...
"Programming Language :: Python :: 3.7",
"Programming Language :: Python :: 3.8",
"Programming Language :: Python :: 3.9",
"Programming Language :: Python :: 3.10",
...
]
I guess you want to set python>=3.7. And I think it is a better way to declare Python compatibility by using the keyword argument python_requires
- Descriptions in python_requires will be reflected in the metadata
- “pip install” can check such metadata on the fly during distribution selection , and prevent from downloading and installing the incompatible package versions.
- If the user does not specify any version constraint, pip can automatically choose the latest compatible package version for users.
Way to improve: modify setup() in setup.py, add python_requires keyword argument:
setup(…
python_requires=">=3.7",
…)
