You can view the new module's documentation here: http://docs.python.org/dev/library/pathlib.html As part of the inclusion process, many API changes were done to the original pathlib API (*) so as to satisfy the python-dev community's comments and complaints. Yet, the PyPI version of pathlib (0.8) was still featuring the legacy API. (*) INCLUDING COMPATIBILITY-BREAKING CHANGES I am now releasing version 0.97 of pathlib, which brings the standalone PyPI module up-to-date with the standard library version. The version number reflects this. It isn't yet "officially" stable, since Python 3.4 hasn't been released yet; I plan to do a standalone 1.0 release by the time Python 3.4 is released. If you are not under Python 3.4: Install ------- Download from https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pathlib/ or use `pip` or `easy_install`. (be sure to *force* the upgrade if pathlib 0.8 or earlier is already installed!) Documentation ------------- Standalone documentation is at https://pathlib.readthedocs.org/ Changes from 0.8 ----------------- The API changes are too long to list; if you are already a pathlib user, I would recommend you read the documentation and find out what has changed for you (your code will likely break loudly, anyway!). Regards Antoine.
