SyntaxError in athena/dataset.py about athena HOT 6 CLOSED

Hi Brunnerdan, thanks for your question! Type hinting in Python was introduced in Python 3.5. You seem to be trying to run Athena on a version of Python that predates 3.5. You can read more about type hinting at this link.

Yes. Still using 2.7. This is the first I've encountered on type hinting. Look as though it can be made backward-compatible:

Interesting article. I'll work on compatibility issues during the next few days and I'll hopefully report back here once I've solved them all. Thanks!

Thanks!

Hi @brunnerdan, good news! My last commit adds Python 2.7 compatibility. I tested out the basic example with Docker and it worked well. Tell me if this fixes your issue and/or if you need anything else.

Great! I'm occupied with another project right now, so I cannot test this. But if it worked for you in 2.7, it should be good.
