smmap2 is a mirror package on PyPI for the `smmap` library, specifically distributing version 3.0.1 of `smmap` under the name `smmap2`. It provides an efficient way to memory-map data, particularly for large files, and is primarily intended as an internal dependency for specific versions of `GitPython` or projects requiring this exact older version. The upstream `smmap` project (at `gitpython-developers/smmap`) has since progressed to version 5.x.x.
pip install smmap2Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.
Demonstrates how to initialize and use `SlidingWindowMap` to read data from a memory-mapped file. It creates a temporary file, maps it into memory, and then accesses the data via `SlidingWindowMap`.
Always use `from smmap import ...` for importing modules and classes from the `smmap2` package.
If you need the latest `smmap` functionality or broad Python compatibility, install `smmap` directly via `pip install smmap`. Be aware of potential API differences between v3.x and v5.x.
For new projects or modern Python environments, prefer `pip install smmap`. If you must use `smmap2`, thoroughly test its compatibility with your specific Python version.
Consider if you truly need this low-level memory mapping functionality directly, or if a higher-level library that depends on `smmap` (like `GitPython`) would be more appropriate for your use case.
If migrating from `smmap2` to `smmap` (v5.x.x), review the `smmap` changelog and update your code to reflect the new API and usage patterns.
