2to3

Automated Python 2 to 3 code conversion. More information: https://docs.python.org/3/library/2to3.html.

  • Display the changes that would be performed without performing them (dry-run):

2to3 {{path/to/file.py}}

  • Convert a Python 2 file to Python 3:

2to3 --write {{path/to/file.py}}

  • Convert specific Python 2 language features to Python 3:

2to3 --write {{path/to/file.py}} --fix {{raw_input}} --fix {{print}}

  • Convert all Python 2 language features except the specified ones to Python 3:

2to3 --write {{path/to/file.py}} --nofix {{has_key}} --nofix {{isinstance}}

  • List all available language features that can be converted from Python 2 to Python 3:

2to3 --list-fixes

  • Convert all Python 2 files in a directory to Python 3:

2to3 --output-dir {{path/to/python3_directory}} --write-unchanged-files --nobackups {{path/to/python2_directory}}

  • Run 2to3 with multiple threads:

2to3 --processes {{4}} --output-dir {{path/to/python3_directory}} --write --nobackups --no-diff {{path/to/python2_directory}}
