  • Switching Pip to Uv in a Dockerized Flask / Django App

    rye is also written in Rust and it's being replaced by uv.

    From its homepage: https://rye.astral.sh/

    > If you're getting started with Rye, consider uv, the successor project from the same maintainers.

    > While Rye is actively maintained, uv offers a more stable and feature-complete experience, and is the recommended choice for new projects.

    > Having trouble migrating? Let us know what's missing.

    Rye is softly being sunset in favor of `uv` (though still officially supported). As it says on https://rye.astral.sh/,

    Yeah, the README said the following until January 2024 [1]:

    > Rye is Armin's personal one-stop-shop for all his Python needs. [...] It is a wish of what Python was, with no guarantee to work for anyone else.

    That text was removed only a few weeks before the announcement that Astral was taking stewardship of Rye.

    Isn't it Rye ? (https://rye.astral.sh)

    I've been evaluating it lately and it has pretty much the same CLI commands as Poetry except it's faster and comes with complete Python interpreter management (which is to me the real killer feature as I don't really care about speed of dependency resolution, but I do care about the DX).

    I haven't used uv but it looks like its trying to be a drop-in replacement for pip which would therefore lack everything that makes poetry great.

    Rye on the other hand seems to be extremely poetry-like while being written in rust for speed: https://rye.astral.sh/

    But personally, I can't justify switching my employer to experimental python dependency management over something as inconsequential as taking a minute to install dependencies so I'm sticking to poetry until Rye has some years of development behind it.

    One that that isn't clear is editor support -- I recently switched to poetry for a few repos at work because it took the pain out of editor setup for my team -- it works with intellij, vscode, and emacs (well, doom emacs made it pretty easy) -- anyone know how well this integrats with e.g. emacs?

  • Python Has Too Many Package Managers

    On Rye: "This project was ultimately abandoned by its author in 2023 and given to Astral.sh in favor of supporting uv instead"

    I don't think that's quite the right way to frame this. Handing Rye over to a company that could maintain it full time isn't the same thing as "abandoning" it - and the new maintainers are very active on that project: https://github.com/astral-sh/rye/commits/main/
