sdds for python3.5

[PCaminal]

Hi all,
I am using python to make data analysis and also for plotting it, and using Ubuntu16.04. The most extended version, if I am not wrong, is Python3.
Is there any sdds extensions for Python3? If not, are you planning to upgrade it?

Thanks a lot in advance!
Cheers,
Pau Gonzalez Caminal

I have been building SDDSPython with the default version of Python for each version of Linux. However, I can post a version for Ubuntu16.04 Python3 later today.

[soliday]

It is ready to go http://ops.aps.anl.gov/downloads/SDDSPy ... x86_64.rpm
Unfortunately there has been an issue with outside access to our web site all day today. I have been told that IT is working on it.

I changed the download links until outside access to the new web server is fixed.
You can download this now at http://wwwaps.anl.gov/asd/oag/downloads ... x86_64.rpm

Hi Soliday,
cool, thanks! I already installed it. However when I import the module sdds into python3, I get the following error:

In [1]: import sdds
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
ImportError Traceback (most recent call last)
<ipython-input-1-d3a2141189aa> in <module>()
----> 1 import sdds

/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/sdds.py in <module>()
----> 1 import sddsdata, sys, time
2
3 class SDDS:
4 """This class implements SDDS datasets."""
5

ImportError: No module named 'sddsdata'

Could it be that by default the sddsdata is installed in some folder, in which python doesn't look for?
Cheers,
Pau

The python2 expects the module shared library name to be sddsdatamodule.so while python3 expects it to be sddsdata.so. I have rebuilt the rpm file. Uninstall the one you have and then redownload the link above and install the updated version.

Awesome, now it works perfectly! =)
Thanks a lot Soliday!

This needs to be unpacked into /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.6/lib/python3.6/site-packages/ for Python3.6 from MacPorts or the site-packages directory of the version of Python3.6 that you are using.
