no get_fits method for DS9 instance

[vpicouet]

In python 2, it is asked to use the get_fits() DS9 method which is not implemented in the version for python 3.
Is it possible to implement the same method for both python version?
Cheers

get_fits is available for both python 2 and 3. Are you sure that you are using the same version in both cases?

Hi Montefra,
thanks for your answer, you are right I think I was using the GitHub installed version on python 2.7 and the pip install version on python 3.
For both of them pyds9.version = '1.8.1' although the code is not the same. It might be interesting to change this (?).

I think I have the answer to my problem, and managed to install the previous commit (mid2018) of pyds9.

To resume:
-The pip version do not have the get_fits method
-The dev version from GitHub has been changed 15 hours ago and there is a ":" missing in it which prevent the install.

Do you know when you will be able to release a new pip version of pyds9?
Best

The dev version from GitHub has been changed 15 hours ago and there is a ":" missing in it which prevent the install.

can you please past the error here? I did a local install here yesterday evening and it did work

Regarding the pip version: it is currently on @xcthulhu account. I should discuss with @ericmandel and @xcthulhu about it.

Ok thanks!
Could you let me know when you have some more information about it?
I also have a package that relies on pyds9 so if they do not plan to release the new version I should change a bit the parts of my code that relies on the GitHub dev package.
Thanks for your help!
