Is there a Google Data API (gdata) for Python 3.x?

Question

I would like to use Google Data API but I'm using Python 3. I didn't see that they mention anything about Python 3. Is it possible to install gdata for Python 3?

Answer 1

The gdata client is just a wrapper around the basic XML/http protocol that is used. You can use the basic protocol instead.

But it's probably easier to port gdata to Python 3, though. Contact the authors.

Answer 2

Not yet, but given that it's all based around exchanging xml-formatted messages, you can easily use it at this lower level from Python 3.

Answer 3

Now you can just pip3 install google-api-python-client and you'll have it. ;)

Answer 4

Via another question, someone has created a python module for the spreadsheets API that does work with Python 3.

Answer 5

Python 3.x version: pip install -e git+https://github.com/dvska/gdata-python3#egg=gdata
