Travis CI : Switch to python 3 temporarily

Okay, so I am trying to generate and deploy the documentation of a Python 2.7 based package. The documentation is generated using sphinx, python 2.7.

However, to actually deploy the documentation, I need to use a tool called doctr. This automatically deploys the generated html to github pages. However it requires me to work on Python 3.5 or newer.

So the question is : When the entire travis build is running on python 2.7, how do I temporarily shift to python 3.5 and deploy the documentation?

You can use pyenv to install 3.5 if not already present, and change to it, do your thing, and change back.

Basically this;

pyenv install 3.5.0
pyenv global 3.5.0
<do the deploy>
pyenv global <previous version>
