Brian #1: pip 25.1 has dependency groups, pylock.toml, plus more

  • post What's new in pip 25.1 - Dependency groups!
  • Richard Si
  • Discovered this through Hugo van Kemenade
  • Dependency groups, PEP 735, supported

```

pyproject.toml[dependency-groups]test = ["pytest", "pytest-xdist"]lint = ["mypy", "isort"]# Dependency Groups can include other groups! ✨dev = [ {include-group = "test"}, {include-group = "lint"} ]

``` * Package installation progress bar * Resumable downloads * Experimental lockfile generation, PEP 751, with pip lock + so cool * pip index versions is stable, no longer experimental + use this to get a list of available versions + ex: python3 -m pip index versions pytest-check + combine with --json to get a nice script readable output

Michael #2: aiohttp goes free threaded

  • Thanks to months of consistent contributions by Lysandros Nikolaou, all of the mandatory dependencies of #aiohttp now ship free-threaded variants of #wheels!
  • This unlocks the same in aiohttp!

Brian #3: uv 0.6.15 supports pylock.toml

  • Discovered through Brett Cannon
  • So far, these projects support pylock.toml
    • pip
    • pip-audit
    • pdm
    • uv
  • With uv
    • To export a uv.lock to the pylock.toml format,
      • run: uv export -o pylock.toml
    • To generate a pylock.toml file from a set of requirements,
      • run: uv pip compile -o pylock.toml -r requirements.in
    • To install from a pylock.toml file,
      • run: uv pip sync pylock.toml or uv pip install -r pylock.toml

Michael #4: Whenever

  • via Pat Decker
  • Typed and DST-safe datetimes for Python, available in Rust or pure Python.
  • Whenever helps you write correct and type checked datetime code.
  • It's also way faster than other third-party libraries—and usually the standard library as well.
