Update PyPI

[kwellman]

The version of "apns" on PyPI is old and the usage has since changed. The example in the README doesn't work with the version on PyPI even though it says that you can install the library using easy_install.

[djacobs]

Ah, yes. Will do.

+1 we'd really like to use this for silent notifications

[tiwilliam]

@djacobs Can we please get some response here?

[djacobs]

I'll go through this next week. Definitely before iOS 8 is live.

@djacobs I will make you cupcakes* if you do this before iOS 8.

*Can be picked up in San Francisco.

[djacobs]

I'm aiming to have an update (here and on pypi) before the 19th.

[djacobs]

Hi guys, this will happen.

[tiwilliam]

Prove it! 😄

[thejeff77]

+1 iOS 8 is out!

[tiwilliam]

@djacobs please share your upload bits if you don't have time, I can help if you want.

[jimhorng]

@djacobs I can share the code review job, too :)

[tudormunteanu]

I'm guessing that this is still waiting for an update.

[djacobs]

Give this a shot: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/apns/2.0

[jimhorng]

@djacobs nice!
do you consider updating download-url to this repo, too?
it is point to previous repo
Download URL: http://github.com/simonwhitaker/PyAPNs

[djacobs]

@jimhorng thanks, I'll fix that. I'll be happy if that's the biggest complaint with this push ;)

[thetylerhayes]

easy_install apps seems to work fine (haven't robustly tested it yet) but pip install apns results in error: file '/tmp/pip-build-root/apns/apns-send' does not exist.

Installing collected packages: apns, pkcs
  Running setup.py install for apns
    error: file '/tmp/pip-build-root/apns/apns-send' does not exist

[cheif]

Have the same problem at @thetylerhayes

[powtac]

@thetylerhayes we are having the exact same problem.

[bachirelkhoury]

almost a year and this is still not fixed. easy install doesn't work for us either!

[cheif]

The problem with pip install is fixed in the PR mentioned above: #97 so you should be able to pip-install from that.
But it would be much better if it was merged and added to pypi instead of having a different fork.

[djacobs]

The pull request has been accepted; I'll update pypi shortly.

[cheif]

Great work @djacobs!

[bachirelkhoury]

Awesome thanks guys!

[MaximilianoRios]

One question about the library. I'm trying to use it to send a MDM push notification (which is a little bit different). Have you ever tried a MDM profile activation instead of a normal push notification? It's just a minor difference but it doesn't seem to work and I want to know whether or not this library has been already tested for that.

[MaximilianoRios]

I would like to track down the message sent to APNS to see if it matches MDM specifications, is that possible? Thanks in advance!

[jhurray]

Still getting error: file '/tmp/pip_build_root/apns/apns-send' does not exist

[cheif]

@jhurray It seems like the version on pypi isn't upgraded yet

[bachirelkhoury]

yup pypi still not updated. download the repo then:

python setup.py install

[djacobs]

We're up https://pypi.python.org/pypi/apns/2.0.1

[alliefitter]

So it's been three years, can we open this issue again? The current version on PyPi doesn't have Python 3 compatibility, and this is the only APNS package for python that has been updated in the past two years. It looks like you uploaded to PyPi here 6879e06 and then later that day merged in a pull request for Python 3 compatibility here fce9e33. Using the GitHub repository for the time being.

[djacobs]

Yes, probably we should move to requiring modern Python. But that should be a new issue, not a comment on a three year-old thread ;)
