""" Abstracts some compatibility issues for Python 2.4 - Python 2.6. Python 2.6 ========== The ``json`` module was added in Python 2.6, which previously was in an external package and called ``simplejson``. The `compat` module abstracts the difference so you can use the ``json`` module generically like this: >>> from compat import json >>> json.dumps({'hello': 'world'}) '{"hello": "world"}' In Python 2.6 the ``parse_qs()`` function was moved from the ``cgi`` module to the ``urlparse`` module. Although ``cgi.parse_qs()`` is still available and only raises a ``PendingDeprecationWarning``, we still provide some future-proofing here so you can import ``parse_qs()`` generically like this: >>> from compat import parse_qs >>> parse_qs('hello=world&how=are+you%3F') {'how': ['are you?'], 'hello': ['world']} For more information, see *What's New in Python 2.6*: http://docs.python.org/whatsnew/2.6.html Python 2.5 ========== The ``hashlib`` module was added in Python2.5, after which use of the ``sha`` and ``md5`` modules is deprecated. You can generically import a ``sha1`` class from the `compat` module like this: >>> from compat import sha1 >>> sha1('hello world').hexdigest() '2aae6c35c94fcfb415dbe95f408b9ce91ee846ed' And generically import an ``md5`` class like this: >>> from compat import md5 >>> md5('hello world').hexdigest() '5eb63bbbe01eeed093cb22bb8f5acdc3' For more information, see *What's New in Python 2.5*: http://python.org/doc/2.5/whatsnew/whatsnew25.html """ import sys if sys.version_info[:2] >= (2, 6): import json from urlparse import parse_qs else: import simplejson as json from cgi import parse_qs try: from hashlib import sha1, md5 #pylint: disable=E0611 except ImportError: from sha import new as sha1 from md5 import new as md5
