Twistd executable on Python3

Question

I have a Twisted daemon application that works without raising any problem on Python 2 using twistd. However, I want to support Python3 as well, and although all my code works, it seems that the twistd executable is not present on the Twisted version for python 3 (apparently the twisted.scripts package is not included). Has anybody found a workaround for this? Sure I can run my daemons without twistd, but it would make the task a bit more complicated and I think it is a elegant way as well.

Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

Only some parts of Twisted are currently ported to Python 3 and I think the twisted.scripts package is not yet available.

You can find here status of this ongoing work, and the Porting to Python 3 documentation page links to the twisted.python.dist3 module which describes the currently ported modules.
