Changelog

All notable changes to the vetox project will be documented in this file.

The format is based on Keep a Changelog, and this project adheres to Semantic Versioning.

Unreleased

0.2.0 - 2024-08-08

Breaking changes

• Drop support for Tox 3.x
• Drop support for Python 3.8

Other changes

• Always pass upgrade_deps when creating the virtual environment using venv
• Import the Iterator class from its new home at collections.abc
• Test infrastructure:
  • check which version of Tox was installed in the virtual environment
  • Ruff:
    • use the concise output format even in preview mode
    • use Ruff 0.5.6
    • override two new docstring-related warnings (DOC201 and DOC501)

0.1.4 - 2024-07-18

Fixes

• Documentation:
  • sync README.md with docs/index.md
• Nix test infrastructure:
  • run python3.X, not python3, so as to not accidentally invoke a "more preferred" Python version that is also installed in the Nix environment

Other changes

• Drop some obsolete Black configuration settings
• Test infrastructure:
  • use Ruff 0.5.2 with no changes
  • use REUSE 0.4.x with no changes
• Nix test infrastructure:
  • only pass the minor version of Python, we only support Python 3.x
  • pass the Python minor version as a string for easier interpolation

0.1.3 - 2024-03-15

Semi-incompatible changes

• Command-line tool behavior changes:
  • remove environment variables related to virtual environments, Tox, or pytest before invoking any tools or libraries that manipulate virtual environments and the packages installed within them. The VIRTUAL_ENV variable and any variables with names starting with PYTEST, PYTHON, and TOX are unset.
• API changes if vetox is imported as a Python module:
  • do not pass the full Config object to get_tox_min_version(), only pass the path to the configuration file

Fixes

• Fix the handling of the features or version commands.
• Documentation:
  • document the --tox-req option to run and run-parallel in the manual page

Additions

• Add the --tox-uv command-line option to install tox-uv into the ephemeral environment so that Tox can create its own virtual environments faster.
• Add the --uv command-line option to use the uv package installer to create the ephemeral virtual environment itself.
• Documentation:
  • add publync definitions to the pyproject.toml file
• Test infrastructure:
  • add unit tests for the trivial command-line processing cases: --help, features, version, invalid arguments, missing command, etc.

Other changes

• Use pip freeze instead of pip list to obtain the list of packages installed within a virtual environment.
• Documentation:
  • use mkdostrings 24.x with no changes
• Test infrastructure:
  • Ruff:
    • use Ruff 0.3.2 with no changes
    • simplify the Ruff configuration files layout
  • pytest:
    • allow pytest 8.x with no changes
    • use pytest-xdist to parallelize the test runs
• Nix test infrastructure:
  • start with Python 3.9; nixpkgs/unstable dropped Python 3.8
  • bring in uv as a runtime dependency so that the tests may pass
  • pass the new --uv and --tox-uv command-line options to the vetox invocation
  • since uv requires an SSL certificate file, use /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates as the default path and let it be overridden by the VETOX_CERT_FILE environment variable

0.1.2 - 2024-02-08

Fixes

• Documentation:
  • drop some unneeded whitespace in code blocks

Additions

• Add the --tox-req (-t) command-line option to specify PEP508-like version requirements for Tox itself, allowing e.g. Tox 3.x to be used.
• Test infrastructure:
  • also build the documentation in the second Tox stage
  • use Ruff 0.2.1 with no changes

0.1.1 - 2024-02-03

Fixes

• Pass "vetox", not "logging-std", as the name of the main logger.

Additions

• Documentation:
  • add a "Download" page

Other changes

• Let Ruff insist on trailing commas.
• Documentation:
  • README.md: catch up with the main documentation page
• Test infrastructure:
  • use Ruff 0.2.0
    • disable another subprocess-related check
    • push some of the configuration settings into the new ruff.lint.* hierarchy
    • drop the override for the deprecated "no self use" check
