Is this Python 3.7 has reached its EOL?

[tiwarishubham635]

I think you should also remove testing against python 3.7 here

Do you still want to support 3.7 ?

I mean we can remove it since its EOL, would need to remove it from test file as well

As this is an extension of #781, it states:

According to https://endoflife.date/python python 3.7 is EOSed since 27 Jun 2023. Filter all code over pyupgrade --py38.

However, since we want to maintain support for python>=3.8, shouldn't we use the flag --py38-plus?

That is exact option which I've used 😋

[tiwarishubham635]

Cool. Please remove the python 3.7 from test file and then I can review.

done

[tiwarishubham635]

Hey @kloczek! There are some files in rest folder that are auto generated. For those files to reflect this change, we need to make changes in our generator repo. I'll do the same and update it here. Thanks!

[kloczek]

OK. No problem. I understand 😄 Just cancel this PR and do how it should be done 😋

[tiwarishubham635]

I have created an internal ticket for this issue to be fixed. Thanks!

Closing this as not planned
