@srh The last but one point has been merged into the master codebase. For reference #303

The last point has been carried out on a separate branch a while ago from me. See https://github.com/rethinkdb/rethinkdb-python/tree/lsabi/commands. Since I started it, there have been some changes in the master branch, thus some adjustments shall be done. Furthermore, the commands were not complete and are probably missing something.

[srh]

@lsabi I was imprecise -- I meant the rethinkdb dump and rethinkdb restore commands. I tried them out and they worked. Also, they work by using the _import and _export modules that the import and export command line commands use directly.

[lsabi]

@srh no problem. Then everything is completed for now. I shall check my branch if it's worth keeping or not.

[srh]

My understanding is, that branch has stuff not in master that you wanted to develop. I'd like to pop off this small release because there are Python 3.10-3.12 users who can't use all features of the driver right now.

[lsabi]

The idea was to refactor the entire codebase in order to make more readable and support the latest python versions. Unfortunately, time has been against us and couldn't finish it before new versions/features were released.

I need to figure out how the building automation works. @gabor-boros can you help?

[lsabi]

@gabor-boros I think I do not have the permissions to self-review my own PRs. Can you review it?

[fdemian]

Hi, everyone.
I'm using this driver as well and having problems with async support and it seems like this new release would solve them.
Is there anything I can do to hep this issue move forward?

[gabor-boros]

Closing this PR as the new version is just released: https://pypi.org/project/rethinkdb/

[srh]

Thanks @gabor-boros ! I've added a v2.4.10 tag and given it a GitHub release page: https://github.com/rethinkdb/rethinkdb-python/releases/tag/v2.4.10

[gabor-boros]

Oh, I forgot to push the tag. Anyway, thanks @srh!
