✨ 2to3-2.7 ✨ (2TO3-2.7(1) User Commands) 🦋

okay bestie, this is the manual page for 2to3-2.7, the Python2 to Python3 converter 💖 it's literally the tool that glows up your old Python 2 code so it can run on Python 3 🔥 no cap, it's iconic.

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

2to3 [options] file|dir ...

okay so you hand it a file or a dir (or a bunch of them) and it does its thing 💅

🌸 OPTIONS 🌸

  • -h, --help — shows the help message and exits 🫶
  • -d, --doctests_only — fixes up doctests only 🧚
  • -f FIX, --fix=FIX — each FIX specifies a transformation; the default is all of them ✨ so it's giving full makeover energy
  • -j PROCESSES, --processes=PROCESSES — runs 2to3 concurrently 🔥
  • -x NOFIX, --nofix=NOFIX — stops a transformation from running 💀 bye bye, not you
  • -l, --list-fixes — lists the available transformations 🍓
  • -p, --print-function — modifies the grammar so that print() is a function 👑 bestie finally gets her parentheses
  • -v, --verbose — gives you more verbose logging 🌈 extra tea, extra details
  • --no-diffs — doesn't show diffs of the refactoring 🙈 no peeking at the before and after
  • -w, --write — writes back the modified files 💜 the changes actually stick
  • -n, --nobackups — doesn't write backups for modified files 😭 living dangerously, iykyk
ngl, --nobackups means there's no safety net for modified files, so use it with intention 💀
