Not compatible with python 3.9?

[VikParuchuri]

Thanks for reporting, will look into this.

Quick steps to get started with 3.10 on macos

brew install [email protected]
python3.10 -m pip install poetry
python3.10 -m poetry install
python3.10 -m poetry shell

# ready to use
python3.10 convert_single.py .... # Or convert.py

I don't have python 3.9 handy to easily test, but I fixed the issue with the pipe char (replaced it with Optional).

Indeed. There are other Python 3.9 incompatibilities, such as the use of the match/case syntax, which reportedly is available only since 3.10:

Also getting this with 3.9 - but when trying with 3.10 getting pydantic errors.

ImportError: cannot import name 'field_validator' from 'pydantic' (/usr/local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/pydantic/__init__.cpython-310-darwin.so)

Looks like there's some more 3.9 bugs from the most recent commit -
