I am using python match case statement in my python project. To test it, I am building a image with docker file, with python:3.12.2-slim-bullseye as base image, and installing python3 during build process.I have verified that the python version which gets installed during build is 3.10.12.Also I have a setup.py file which uses cython to build python files into .so files.
While building the image, cython throws error on match syntax, as I said, I have verified that python version being installed is 3.10.12 and more over I built a dummy image which has python 3.10.12, and went inside container and tested with a sample python file with match syntax and it works perfectly fine.But while building the files with Cython it is failing..Please if anyone has any idea please help me out. I am a fresher and working on this big project, Cython was new to me. Syntax error shown while cythonizing
It isn't yet supported in any Cython release (as of my knowledge cutoff of 27 March 2024, i.e. today).
The patma-preview branch does contain a complete implementation so you can check that branch out and use it. However it's a large and basically unreviewed chunk of code so use it at your own risk. It'll be gradually merged into a release as it gets reviewed.
pip install from git repo branch shows you how to install from a branch.
If you want to track it, the relevant Cython issue is https://github.com/cython/cython/issues/4029 (note that commenting "me too" on the issue is not a helpful contribution so please don't do that. Reporting any bugs you find in the branch would be useful though).
