<span id="to3-reference"></span><h1>25.4. 2to3 - Automated Python 2 to 3 code translation<a class="headerlink" href="#to3-automated-python-2-to-3-code-translation" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h1>
<p>2to3 is a Python program that reads Python 2.x source code and applies a series
of <em>fixers</em> to transform it into valid Python 3.x code. The standard library
contains a rich set of fixers that will handle almost all code. 2to3 supporting
library <a class="reference internal" href="#module-lib2to3" title="lib2to3: the 2to3 library"><tt class="xref py py-mod docutils literal"><span class="pre">lib2to3</span></tt></a> is, however, a flexible and generic library, so it is
possible to write your own fixers for 2to3. <a class="reference internal" href="#module-lib2to3" title="lib2to3: the 2to3 library"><tt class="xref py py-mod docutils literal"><span class="pre">lib2to3</span></tt></a> could also be
adapted to custom applications in which Python code needs to be edited
automatically.</p>
<div class="section" id="using-2to3">
<span id="to3-using"></span><h2>25.4.1. Using 2to3<a class="headerlink" href="#using-2to3" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
<p>2to3 will usually be installed with the Python interpreter as a script. It is
also located in the <tt class="file docutils literal"><span class="pre">Tools/scripts</span></tt> directory of the Python root.</p>
<p>2to3’s basic arguments are a list of files or directories to transform. The
directories are recursively traversed for Python sources.</p>
<p>Here is a sample Python 2.x source file, <tt class="file docutils literal"><span class="pre">example.py</span></tt>:</p>
<div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="k">def</span> <span class="nf">greet</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">name</span><span class="p">):</span>
<span class="k">print</span> <span class="s">"Hello, {0}!"</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">format</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">name</span><span class="p">)</span>
<span class="k">print</span> <span class="s">"What's your name?"</span>
<span class="n">name</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="nb">raw_input</span><span class="p">()</span>
<span class="n">greet</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">name</span><span class="p">)</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>It can be converted to Python 3.x code via 2to3 on the command line:</p>
<div class="highlight-python"><pre>$ 2to3 example.py</pre>
</div>
<p>A diff against the original source file is printed. 2to3 can also write the
needed modifications right back to the source file. (A backup of the original
file is made unless <em class="xref std std-option">-n</em> is also given.) Writing the changes back is
enabled with the <em class="xref std std-option">-w</em> flag:</p>
<div class="highlight-python"><pre>$ 2to3 -w example.py</pre>
</div>
<p>After transformation, <tt class="file docutils literal"><span class="pre">example.py</span></tt> looks like this:</p>
<div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="k">def</span> <span class="nf">greet</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">name</span><span class="p">):</span>
<span class="k">print</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s">"Hello, {0}!"</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">format</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">name</span><span class="p">))</span>
<span class="k">print</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s">"What's your name?"</span><span class="p">)</span>
<span class="n">name</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="nb">input</span><span class="p">()</span>
<span class="n">greet</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">name</span><span class="p">)</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>Comments and exact indentation are preserved throughout the translation process.</p>
<p>By default, 2to3 runs a set of <a class="reference internal" href="#to3-fixers"><em>predefined fixers</em></a>. The
<em class="xref std std-option">-l</em> flag lists all available fixers. An explicit set of fixers to run
can be given with <em class="xref std std-option">-f</em>. Likewise the <a class="reference internal" href="../using/cmdline.html#cmdoption-x"><em class="xref std std-option">-x</em></a> explicitly disables a
fixer. The following example runs only the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">imports</span></tt> and <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">has_key</span></tt> fixers:</p>
<div class="highlight-python"><pre>$ 2to3 -f imports -f has_key example.py</pre>
</div>
<p>This command runs every fixer except the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">apply</span></tt> fixer:</p>
<div class="highlight-python"><pre>$ 2to3 -x apply example.py</pre>
</div>
<p>Some fixers are <em>explicit</em>, meaning they aren’t run by default and must be
listed on the command line to be run. Here, in addition to the default fixers,
the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">idioms</span></tt> fixer is run:</p>
<div class="highlight-python"><pre>$ 2to3 -f all -f idioms example.py</pre>
</div>
<p>Notice how passing <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">all</span></tt> enables all default fixers.</p>
<p>Sometimes 2to3 will find a place in your source code that needs to be changed,
but 2to3 cannot fix automatically. In this case, 2to3 will print a warning
beneath the diff for a file. You should address the warning in order to have
compliant 3.x code.</p>
<p>2to3 can also refactor doctests. To enable this mode, use the <a class="reference internal" href="../using/cmdline.html#cmdoption-d"><em class="xref std std-option">-d</em></a>
flag. Note that <em>only</em> doctests will be refactored. This also doesn’t require
the module to be valid Python. For example, doctest like examples in a reST
document could also be refactored with this option.</p>
<p>The <a class="reference internal" href="../using/cmdline.html#cmdoption-v"><em class="xref std std-option">-v</em></a> option enables output of more information on the translation
process.</p>
<p>Since some print statements can be parsed as function calls or statements, 2to3
cannot always read files containing the print function. When 2to3 detects the
presence of the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">from</span> <span class="pre">__future__</span> <span class="pre">import</span> <span class="pre">print_function</span></tt> compiler directive, it
modifies its internal grammar to interpret <a class="reference internal" href="functions.html#print" title="print"><tt class="xref py py-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">print()</span></tt></a> as a function. This
change can also be enabled manually with the <em class="xref std std-option">-p</em> flag. Use
<em class="xref std std-option">-p</em> to run fixers on code that already has had its print statements
converted.</p>
<p>The <em class="xref std std-option">-o</em> or <em class="xref std std-option">--output-dir</em> option allows specification of an
alternate directory for processed output files to be written to. The
<em class="xref std std-option">-n</em> flag is required when using this as backup files do not make sense
when not overwriting the input files.</p>
<p class="versionadded">
<span class="versionmodified">New in version 2.7.3: </span>The <em class="xref std std-option">-o</em> option was added.</p>
<p>The <a class="reference internal" href="../using/cmdline.html#cmdoption-W"><em class="xref std std-option">-W</em></a> or <em class="xref std std-option">--write-unchanged-files</em> flag tells 2to3 to always
write output files even if no changes were required to the file. This is most
useful with <em class="xref std std-option">-o</em> so that an entire Python source tree is copied with
translation from one directory to another.
This option implies the <em class="xref std std-option">-w</em> flag as it would not make sense otherwise.</p>
<p class="versionadded">
<span class="versionmodified">New in version 2.7.3: </span>The <a class="reference internal" href="../using/cmdline.html#cmdoption-W"><em class="xref std std-option">-W</em></a> flag was added.</p>
<p>The <em class="xref std std-option">--add-suffix</em> option specifies a string to append to all output
filenames. The <em class="xref std std-option">-n</em> flag is required when specifying this as backups
are not necessary when writing to different filenames. Example:</p>
<div class="highlight-python"><pre>$ 2to3 -n -W --add-suffix=3 example.py</pre>
</div>
<p>Will cause a converted file named <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">example.py3</span></tt> to be written.</p>
<p class="versionadded">
<span class="versionmodified">New in version 2.7.3: </span>The <em class="xref std std-option">--add-suffix</em> option was added.</p>
<p>To translate an entire project from one directory tree to another use:</p>
