• More supported modules soon...
• Open an issue for more Python libraries that you want wrapped! (1 issue per 1 lib).

For more documentation, use Python official documentation, works too.

Design

• 1 Dependency only.
• 1 Nim module per 1 Python module.
• Compatible with ARC, ORC, strictFuncs.
• Module files are <200 lines each of pure Nim code.
• Enforces real strong inferred static typing with UFCS for Python.
• Same API as Python StdLib, same function names, same argument names.
• Use the vanilla official Python StdLib that you already know by memory.
• Same module filenames as Python StdLib, same imports as Python StdLib.
• Documentation online, but also any Python documentation should work too.
• It does not use anything from Nim standard library, very future-proof.
• Stuff deprecated/removed in Python before year 2020 will not be supported.
• We do not deprecate stuff, even if Python deprecate/remove it, it will keep working for Nim.
• Each file is completely self-contained standalone, you can copy just 1 file on your project and use it.
• Package version == Python version.

Requisites

• Python ( >2.7 works but unsupported, >3.5 minimal, >=3.10 recommended ).

Install

nimble install https://github.com/juancarlospaco/cpython.git

Stars

Doing JavaScript or Web Dev ?

• Alternative StdLib for Nim for NodeJS/JavaScript targets, hijacks NodeJS StdLib for Nim.

Why?

The idea comes from the community of "Nim en Espanol" Telegram group (Spanish).
