Python 3 Merged in MAINLINE!! - docwra - 2019-10-14
Gentlemen start your engines.....
Python 3 support is now part of the nightly builds
Please post below if you have updated your Add-on to support Python 3, I will keep a list in the 2nd post. Happy coding!!

Nice! And perfect timing too. You can count Amazon and Amazon VOD addons in, we prepared ahead of time so it should work already, but I'm going to test with the latest nightlies just to be sure. https://github.com/Sandmann79/xbmc/

Fantastic, thanks for the hard work to all involved!
Can anyone confirm the version number to use in addon.xml to use as the python extension point to force Python 3? I'm referring to this:
xml:<import addon="xbmc.python" version="2.26.0" />
RE: Python 3 Merged in MAINLINE!! - Rechi - 2019-10-14
2.26.0 is used for Leia too.
RE: Python 3 Merged in MAINLINE!! - Snapcase - 2019-10-14
Yeah, I was looking for the Matrix equivalent and used Leia as an example.
RE: Python 3 Merged in MAINLINE!! - Rechi - 2019-10-14
It's also 2.26.0.

It seems I spoke too soon, while the few issues with Python 3 have been ironed out fairly quickly, the supporting libraries are turning to be a nightmare, especially on the side of mechanize/bs4/soupsieve. Gotta figure out why in the world I keep receiving ImportError for installed modules…
RE: Python 3 Merged in MAINLINE!! - Snapcase - 2019-10-15
Does anyone know when a matrix branch will be added to the add-on repos for submissions? I don't really know the usual timelines for new releases. I don't want to support both so I've been waiting until I can make a python 3 only add-on.
RE: Python 3 Merged in MAINLINE!! - scott967 - 2019-10-15
There's a migration branch on repo-scripts and repo-plugins. Is that supposed to be used?

nope, we used the migration branch for testing only.
py3 (only) addons can be submitted to the matrix branch.

There is indeed a problem with bs4 libraries: https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=347007
RE: Python 3 Merged in MAINLINE!! - ronie - 2019-10-15
the matrix addon repo has now been set-up. we have BeautifulSoup v4.6.3 in there.
that should fix those issues.
xbmc.python is going to be bumped to 3.0.0 for kodi matrix
RE: Python 3 Merged in MAINLINE!! - robweber - 2019-10-15
Pretty sure I know the answer to this but for Matrix submissions we only need to be Python 3 compatible right? I've been working on a Python 2/3 port for the Backup addon and it's been a real pain in a few areas. If I'm shooting for Matrix only I could just do Python 3 right?
RE: Python 3 Merged in MAINLINE!! - ronie - 2019-10-15
yes, any addon that is submitted to the matrix repo only needs py3 support.
