Release Notes

pypa/setuptools

v62.3.2

Compare Source

Misc ^^^^

• #​3328: Include a first line summary to some of the existing multi-line warnings.

v62.3.1

Compare Source

Misc ^^^^

• #​3320: Fixed typo which causes namespace_packages to raise an error instead of warning.

v62.3.0

Compare Source

Deprecations ^^^^^^^^^^^^

• #​3262: Formally added deprecation messages for namespace_packages. The methodology that uses pkg_resources and namespace_packages for creating namespaces was already discouraged by the :doc:setuptools docs </userguide/package_discovery> and the :doc:Python Packaging User Guide <PyPUG:guides/packaging-namespace-packages>, therefore this change just make the deprecation more official. Users can consider migrating to native/implicit namespaces (as introduced in :pep:420).

• #​3308: Relying on include_package_data to ensure sub-packages are automatically added to the build wheel distribution (as "data") is now considered a deprecated practice.

  This behaviour was controversial and caused inconsistencies (#​3260).

  Instead, projects are encouraged to properly configure packages or use discovery tools. General information can be found in :doc:userguide/package_discovery.

Changes ^^^^^^^

• #​1806: Allowed recursive globs (**) in package_data. -- by :user:nullableVoidPtr
• #​3206: Fixed behaviour when both install_requires (in setup.py) and dependencies (in pyproject.toml) are specified. The configuration in pyproject.toml will take precedence over setup.py (in accordance with PEP 621). A warning was added to inform users.

Documentation changes ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

• #​3307: Added introduction to references/keywords Added deprecation tags to test kwargs Moved userguide/keywords to deprecated section Clarified in deprecated doc what keywords came from distutils and which were added or changed by setuptools

Misc ^^^^

• #​3274: Updated version of vendored pyparsing to 3.0.8 to avoid problems with upcoming deprecation in Python 3.11.
• #​3292: Added warning about incompatibility with old versions of importlib-metadata.

v62.2.0

Compare Source

Changes ^^^^^^^

• #​3299: Optional metadata fields are now truly optional. Includes merge with pypa/distutils@a7cfb56 per pypa/distutils#​138.

Misc ^^^^

• #​3282: Added CI cache for setup.cfg examples used when testing setuptools.config.

v62.1.0

Compare Source

Changes ^^^^^^^

• #​3258: Merge pypa/distutils@5229dad.

Misc ^^^^

• #​3249: Simplified package_dir obtained via auto-discovery.

v62.0.0

Compare Source

Breaking Changes ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

• #​3151: Made setup.py develop --user install to the user site packages directory even if it is disabled in the current interpreter.

Changes ^^^^^^^

• #​3153: When resolving requirements use both canonical and normalized names -- by :user:ldaniluk
• #​3167: Honor unix file mode in ZipFile when installing wheel via install_as_egg -- by :user:delijati

Misc ^^^^

• #​3088: Fixed duplicated tag with the dist-info command.
• #​3247: Fixed problem preventing readme specified as dynamic in pyproject.toml from being dynamically specified in setup.py.

v61.3.1

Compare Source

Misc ^^^^

• #​3233: Included missing test file setupcfg_examples.txt in sdist.
• #​3233: Added script that allows developers to download setupcfg_examples.txt prior to running tests. By caching these files it should be possible to run the test suite offline.

v61.3.0

Compare Source

Changes ^^^^^^^

• #​3229: Disabled automatic download of trove-classifiers to facilitate reproducibility.

Misc ^^^^

• #​3229: Updated pyproject.toml validation via validate-pyproject v0.7.1.
• #​3229: New internal tool made available for updating the code responsible for the validation of pyproject.toml. This tool can be executed via tox -e generate-validation-code.

v61.2.0

Compare Source

Changes ^^^^^^^

• #​3215: Ignored a subgroup of invalid pyproject.toml files that use the [project] table to specify only requires-python (transitional).

  .. warning:: Please note that future releases of setuptools will halt the build process if a pyproject.toml file that does not match doc:the PyPA Specification <PyPUG:specifications/declaring-project-metadata> is given.

• #​3215: Updated pyproject.toml validation, as generated by validate-pyproject==0.6.1.

• #​3218: Prevented builds from erroring if the project specifies metadata via pyproject.toml, but uses other files (e.g. setup.py) to complement it, without setting dynamic properly.

  .. important:: This is a transitional behaviour. Future releases of setuptools may simply ignore externally set metadata not backed by dynamic or even halt the build with an error.

• #​3224: Merge changes from pypa/distutils@e1d5c9b

Documentation changes ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

• #​3217: Fixed typo in pyproject.toml example in Quickstart -- by :user:pablo-cardenas.

Misc ^^^^

• #​3223: Fixed missing requirements with environment markers when optional-dependencies is set in pyproject.toml.

v61.1.1

Compare Source

Misc ^^^^

• #​3212: Fixed missing dependencies when running setup.py install. Note that calling setup.py install directly is still deprecated and will be removed in future versions of setuptools. Please check the release notes for :ref:setup_install_deprecation_note.

v61.1.0

Compare Source

Deprecations ^^^^^^^^^^^^

• #​3206: Changed setuptools.convert_path to an internal function that is not exposed as part of setuptools API. Future releases of setuptools are likely to remove this function.

Changes ^^^^^^^

• #​3202: Changed behaviour of auto-discovery to not explicitly expand package_dir for flat-layouts and to not use relative paths starting with ./.

• #​3203: Prevented pyproject.toml parsing from overwriting dist.include_package_data explicitly set in setup.py with default value.

• #​3208: Added a warning for non existing files listed with the file directive in setup.cfg and pyproject.toml.

• #​3208: Added a default value for dynamic classifiers in pyproject.toml when files are missing and errors being ignored.

• #​3211: Disabled auto-discovery when distribution class has a configuration attribute (e.g. when the setup.py script contains setup(..., configuration=...)). This is done to ensure extension-only packages created with numpy.distutils.misc_util.Configuration are not broken by the safe guard behaviour to avoid accidental multiple top-level packages in a flat-layout.

  .. note:: Users that don't set packages, py_modules, or configuration are still likely to observe the auto-discovery behavior, which may halt the build if the project contains multiple directories and/or multiple Python files directly under the project root.

  To disable auto-discovery please explicitly set either packages or py_modules. Alternatively you can also configure :ref:custom-discovery.

v61.0.0

Compare Source

Deprecations ^^^^^^^^^^^^

• #​3068: Deprecated setuptools.config.read_configuration, setuptools.config.parse_configuration and other functions or classes from setuptools.config.

  Users that still need to parse and process configuration from setup.cfg can import a direct replacement from setuptools.config.setupcfg, however this module is transitional and might be removed in the future (the setup.cfg configuration format itself is likely to be deprecated in the future).

Breaking Changes ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

• #​2894: If you purposefully want to create an "empty distribution", please be aware that some Python files (or general folders) might be automatically detected and included.

  Projects that currently don't specify both packages and py_modules in their configuration and contain extra folders or Python files (not meant for distribution), might see these files being included in the wheel archive or even experience the build to fail.

  You can check details about the automatic discovery (and how to configure a different behaviour) in :doc:/userguide/package_discovery.

• #​3067: If the file pyproject.toml exists and it includes project metadata/config (via [project] table or [tool.setuptools]), a series of new behaviors that are not backward compatible may take place:

  • The default value of include_package_data will be considered to be True.
  • Setuptools will attempt to validate the pyproject.toml file according to PEP 621 specification.
  • The values specified in pyproject.toml will take precedence over those specified in setup.cfg or setup.py.

Changes ^^^^^^^

• #​2887: [EXPERIMENTAL] Added automatic discovery for py_modules and packages -- by :user:abravalheri.

  Setuptools will try to find these values assuming that the package uses either the src-layout (a src directory containing all the packages or modules), the flat-layout (package directories directly under the project root), or the single-module approach (an isolated Python file, directly under the project root).

  The automatic discovery will also respect layouts that are explicitly configured using the package_dir option.

  For backward-compatibility, this behavior will be observed only if both py_modules and packages are not set. (Note: specifying ext_modules might also prevent auto-discover from taking place)

  If setuptools detects modules or packages that are not supposed to be in the distribution, please manually set py_modules and packages in your setup.cfg or setup.py file. If you are using a flat-layout, you can also consider switching to src-layout.

• #​2887: [EXPERIMENTAL] Added automatic configuration for the name metadata -- by :user:abravalheri.

  Setuptools will adopt the name of the top-level package (or module in the case of single-module distributions), only when name is not explicitly provided.

  Please note that it is not possible to automatically derive a single name when the distribution consists of multiple top-level packages or modules.

• #​3066: Added vendored dependencies for :pypi:tomli, :pypi:validate-pyproject.

  These dependencies are used to read pyproject.toml files and validate them.

• #​3067: [EXPERIMENTAL] When using pyproject.toml metadata, the default value of include_package_data is changed to True.

• #​3068: [EXPERIMENTAL] Add support for pyproject.toml configuration (as introduced by :pep:621). Configuration parameters not covered by standards are handled in the [tool.setuptools] sub-table.

  In the future, existing setup.cfg configuration may be automatically converted into the pyproject.toml equivalent before taking effect (as proposed in #​1688). Meanwhile users can use automated tools like :pypi:ini2toml to help in the transition.

  Please note that the legacy backend is not guaranteed to work with pyproject.toml configuration.

  -- by :user:abravalheri

• #​3125: Implicit namespaces (as introduced in :pep:420) are now considered by default during :doc:package discovery </userguide/package_discovery>, when setuptools configuration and project metadata are added to the pyproject.toml file.

  To disable this behaviour, use namespaces = False when explicitly setting the [tool.setuptools.packages.find] section in pyproject.toml.

  This change is backwards compatible and does not affect the behaviour of configuration done in setup.cfg or setup.py.

• #​3152: [EXPERIMENTAL] Added support for attr: and cmdclass configurations in setup.cfg and pyproject.toml when package_dir is implicitly found via auto-discovery.

• #​3178: Postponed importing ctypes when hiding files on Windows. This helps to prevent errors in systems that might not have libffi installed.

• #​3179: Merge with pypa/distutils@267dbd2

Documentation changes ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

• #​3172: Added initial documentation about configuring setuptools via pyproject.toml (using standard project metadata).

Misc ^^^^

• #​3065: Refactored setuptools.config by separating configuration parsing (specific to the configuration file format, e.g. setup.cfg) and post-processing (which includes directives such as file: that can be used across different configuration formats).

v60.10.0

Compare Source

Changes ^^^^^^^

• #​2971: Deprecated upload_docs command, to be removed in the future.
• #​3137: Use samefile from stdlib, supported on Windows since Python 3.2.
• #​3170: Adopt nspektr (vendored) to implement Distribution._install_dependencies.

Documentation changes ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

• #​3144: Added documentation on using console_scripts from setup.py, which was previously only shown in setup.cfg -- by :user:xhlulu
• #​3148: Added clarifications about MANIFEST.in, that include links to PyPUG docs and more prominent mentions to using a revision control system plugin as an alternative.
• #​3148: Removed mention to pkg_resources as the recommended way of accessing data files, in favour of importlib.resources. Additionally more emphasis was put on the fact that package data files reside inside the package directory (and therefore should be read-only).

Misc ^^^^

• #​3120: Added workaround for intermittent failures of backend tests on PyPy. These tests now are marked with XFAIL <https://docs.pytest.org/en/stable/how-to/skipping.html>_, instead of erroring out directly.
• #​3124: Improved configuration for :pypi:rst-linker (extension used to build the changelog).
• #​3133: Enhanced isolation of tests using virtual environments - PYTHONPATH is not leaking to spawned subprocesses -- by :user:befeleme
• #​3147: Added options to provide a pre-built setuptools wheel or sdist for being used during tests with virtual environments. Paths for these pre-built distribution files can now be set via the environment variables: MRE_BUILT_SETUPTOOLS_SDIST and MRE_BUILT_SETUPTOOLS_WHEEL.

v60.9.3

Compare Source

Misc ^^^^

• #​3093: Repaired automated release process.

v60.9.2

Compare Source

Misc ^^^^

• #​3035: When loading distutils from the vendored copy, rewrite __name__ to ensure consistent importing from inside and out.

v60.9.1

Compare Source

Misc ^^^^

• #​3102: Prevent vendored importlib_metadata from loading distributions from older importlib_metadata.
• #​3103: Fixed issue where string-based entry points would be omitted.
• #​3107: Bump importlib_metadata to 4.11.1 addressing issue with parsing requirements in egg-info as found in PyPy.

v60.9.0

Compare Source

Changes ^^^^^^^

• #​2876: In the build backend, allow single config settings to be supplied.
• #​2993: Removed workaround in distutils hack for get-pip now that pypa/get-pip#​137 is closed.
• #​3085: Setuptools no longer relies on pkg_resources for entry point handling.
• #​3098: Bump vendored packaging to 21.3.
• Removed bootstrap script.

.. warning:: Users trying to install the unmaintained :pypi:pathlib backport from PyPI/sdist/source code may find problems when using setuptools >= 60.9.0. This happens because during the installation, the unmaintained implementation of pathlib is loaded and may cause compatibility problems (it does not expose the same public API defined in the Python standard library).

Whenever possible users should avoid declaring pathlib as a dependency. An alternative is to pre-build a wheel for pathlib using a separated virtual environment with an older version of setuptools and install the library directly from the pre-built wheel.

v60.8.2

Compare Source

Misc ^^^^

• #​3091: Make concurrent.futures import lazy in vendored more_itertools package to a avoid importing threading as a side effect (which caused gevent/gevent#&#8203;1865 <https://github.com/gevent/gevent/issues/1865>__). -- by :user:maciejp-ro

v60.8.1

Compare Source

Misc ^^^^

• #​3084: When vendoring jaraco packages, ensure the namespace package is converted to a simple package to support zip importer.

v60.8.0

Compare Source

Changes ^^^^^^^

• #​3085: Setuptools now vendors importlib_resources and importlib_metadata and jaraco.text. Setuptools no longer relies on pkg_resources for ensure_directory nor parse_requirements.

v60.7.1

Compare Source

Misc ^^^^

• #​3072: Remove lorem_ipsum from jaraco.text when vendored.

v60.7.0

Compare Source

Changes ^^^^^^^

• #​3061: Vendored jaraco.text and use line processing from that library in pkg_resources.

Misc ^^^^

• #​3070: Avoid AttributeError in easy_install.create_home_path when sysconfig.get_config_vars values are not strings.

v60.6.0

Compare Source

Changes ^^^^^^^

• #​3043: Merge with pypa/distutils@bb018f1 including consolidated behavior in sysconfig.get_platform (pypa/distutils#​104).
• #​3057: Don't include optional Home-page in metadata if no url is specified. -- by :user:cdce8p
• #​3062: Merge with pypa/distutils@b53a824 including improved support for lib directories on non-x64 Windows builds.

Documentation changes ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

• #​2897: Added documentation about wrapping setuptools.build_meta in a in-tree custom backend. This is a :pep:517-compliant way of dynamically specifying build dependencies (e.g. when platform, OS and other markers are not enough). -- by :user:abravalheri
• #​3034: Replaced occurrences of the defunct distutils-sig mailing list with pointers to GitHub Discussions. -- by :user:ashemedai
• #​3056: The documentation has stopped suggesting to add wheel to :pep:517 requirements -- by :user:webknjaz

Misc ^^^^

• #​3054: Used Py3 syntax super().__init__() -- by :user:imba-tjd

v60.5.0

Compare Source

Changes ^^^^^^^

• #​2990: Set the .origin attribute of the distutils module to the module's __file__.

v60.4.0

Compare Source

Changes ^^^^^^^

• #​2839: Removed requires sorting when installing wheels as an egg dir.
• #​2953: Fixed a bug that easy install incorrectly parsed Python 3.10 version string.
• #​3006: Fixed startup performance issue of Python interpreter due to imports of costly modules in _distutils_hack -- by :user:tiran

Documentation changes ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

• #​2674: Added link to additional resources on packaging in Quickstart guide
• #​3008: "In-tree" Sphinx extension for "favicons" replaced with sphinx-favicon.
• #​3008: SVG images (logo, banners, ...) optimised with the help of the scour package.

Misc ^^^^

• #​2862: Added integration tests that focus on building and installing some packages in the Python ecosystem via pip -- by :user:abravalheri

• #​2952: Modified "vendoring" logic to keep license files.

• #​2968: Improved isolation for some tests that where inadvertently using the project root for builds, and therefore creating directories (e.g. build, dist, *.egg-info) that could interfere with the outcome of other tests -- by :user:abravalheri.

• #​2968: Introduced new test fixtures venv, venv_without_setuptools, bare_venv that rely on the jaraco.envs package. These new test fixtures were also used to remove the (currently problematic) dependency on the pytest_virtualenv plugin.

• #​2968: Removed tmp_src test fixture. Previously this fixture was copying all the files and folders under the project root, including the .git directory, which is error prone and increases testing time.

  Since tmp_src was used to populate virtual environments (installing the version of setuptools under test via the source tree), it was replaced by the new setuptools_sdist and setuptools_wheel fixtures (that are build only once per session testing and can be shared between all the workers for read-only usage).

v60.2.0

Compare Source

Changes ^^^^^^^

• #​2974: Setuptools now relies on the Python logging infrastructure to log messages. Instead of using distutils.log.*, use logging.getLogger(name).*.
• #​2987: Sync with pypa/distutils@2def21c, including fix for missing get_versions attribute (#​2969), more reliance on sysconfig from stdlib.

Misc ^^^^

• #​2962: Avoid attempting to use local distutils when the presiding version of Setuptools on the path doesn't have one.
• #​2983: Restore 'add_shim' as the way to invoke the hook. Avoids compatibility issues between different versions of Setuptools with the distutils local implementation.

• #​2879: Bump packaging to 21.2.

Documentation changes ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

• #​2867: PNG/ICO images replaced with SVG in the docs.

v58.3.0

Compare Source

Changes ^^^^^^^

• #​917: setup.py install and easy_install commands are now officially deprecated. Use other standards-based installers (like pip) and builders (like build). Workloads reliant on this behavior should pin to this major version of Setuptools. See Why you shouldn't invoke setup.py directly <https://blog.ganssle.io/articles/2021/10/setup-py-deprecated.html>_ for more background.
• #​1988: Deprecated the bdist_rpm command. Binary packages should be built as wheels instead. -- by :user:hugovk
• #​2785: Replace configparser's readfp with read_file, deprecated since Python 3.2. -- by :user:hugovk
• #​2823: Officially deprecated support for setup_requires. Users are encouraged instead to migrate to PEP 518 build-system.requires in pyproject.toml. Users reliant on setup_requires should consider pinning to this major version to avoid disruption.

Breaking Changes ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

• #​2620: If neither license_file nor license_files is specified, the sdist option will now auto-include files that match the following patterns: LICEN[CS]E*, COPYING*, NOTICE*, AUTHORS*. This matches the behavior of bdist_wheel. -- by :user:cdce8p

Compare Source

Changes ^^^^^^^

• #​1608: Removed the conversion of dashes to underscores in the :code:extras_require and :code:data_files of :code:setup.cfg to support the usage of dashes. Method will warn users when they use a dash-separated key which in the future will only allow an underscore.

v54.0.0

Compare Source

Breaking Changes ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Changes ^^^^^^^

• #​2355: When pip is imported as part of a build, leave distutils patched.
• #​2380: There are some setuptools specific changes in the setuptools.command.bdist_rpm module that are no longer needed, because they are part of the bdist_rpm module in distutils in Python 3.5.0. Therefore, code was removed from setuptools.command.bdist_rpm.

v50.1.0

Compare Source

Changes ^^^^^^^

• #​2350: Setuptools reverts using the included distutils by default. Platform maintainers and system integrators and others are strongly encouraged to set SETUPTOOLS_USE_DISTUTILS=local to help identify and work through the reported issues with distutils adoption, mainly to file issues and pull requests with pypa/distutils such that distutils performs as needed across every supported environment.

v50.0.0

Compare Source

Breaking Changes ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

• #​2232: Once again, Setuptools overrides the stdlib distutils on import. For environments or invocations where this behavior is undesirable, users are provided with a temporary escape hatch. If the environment variable SETUPTOOLS_USE_DISTUTILS is set to stdlib, Setuptools will fall back to the legacy behavior. Use of this escape hatch is discouraged, but it is provided to ease the transition while proper fixes for edge cases can be addressed.

Changes ^^^^^^^

• #​2334: In MSVC module, refine text in error message.

v49.6.0

v49.5.0

Compare Source

Changes ^^^^^^^

v49.3.0

Compare Source

Changes ^^^^^^^

• #​2259: Setuptools now provides a .pth file (except for editable installs of setuptools) to the target environment to ensure that when enabled, the setuptools-provided distutils is preferred before setuptools has been imported (and even if setuptools is never imported). Honors the SETUPTOOLS_USE_DISTUTILS environment variable.
