This is the initial implementation of PEP 615, the zoneinfo module, ported from the standalone reference implementation (see https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0615/#reference-implementation for a link, which has a more detailed commit history). This includes (hopefully) all functional elements described in the PEP, but documentation is found in a separate PR. This includes: 1. A pure python implementation of the ZoneInfo class 2. A C accelerated implementation of the ZoneInfo class 3. Tests with 100% branch coverage for the Python code (though C code coverage is less than 100%). 4. A compile-time configuration option on Linux (though not on Windows) Differences from the reference implementation: - The module is arranged slightly differently: the accelerated module is `_zoneinfo` rather than `zoneinfo._czoneinfo`, which also necessitates some changes in the test support function. (Suggested by Victor Stinner and Steve Dower.) - The tests are arranged slightly differently and do not include the property tests. The tests live at test/test_zoneinfo/test_zoneinfo.py rather than test/test_zoneinfo.py or test/test_zoneinfo/__init__.py because we may do some refactoring in the future that would likely require this separation anyway; we may: - include the property tests - automatically run all the tests against both pure Python and C, rather than manually constructing C and Python test classes (similar to the way this works with test_datetime.py, which generates C and Python test cases from datetimetester.py). - This includes a compile-time configuration option on Linux (though not on Windows); added with much help from Thomas Wouters. - Integration into the CPython build system is obviously different from building a standalone zoneinfo module wheel. - This includes configuration to install the tzdata package as part of CI, though only on the coverage jobs. Introducing a PyPI dependency as part of the CI build was controversial, and this is seen as less of a major change, since the coverage jobs already depend on pip and PyPI. Additional changes that were introduced as part of this PR, most / all of which were backported to the reference implementation: - Fixed reference and memory leaks With much debugging help from Pablo Galindo - Added smoke tests ensuring that the C and Python modules are built The import machinery can be somewhat fragile, and the "seamlessly falls back to pure Python" nature of this module makes it so that a problem building the C extension or a failure to import the pure Python version might easily go unnoticed. - Adjustments to zoneinfo.__dir__ Suggested by Petr Viktorin. - Slight refactorings as suggested by Steve Dower. - Removed unnecessary if check on std_abbr Discovered this because of a missing line in branch coverage. |
