{#v0-40-added}

Added

• Nothing added.

{#v0-40-removed}

Removed

• (python_repository) Use bazel's built in zstd support and remove attributes
  for customizing the zstd binary to be used for zstd archives in the
  {bzl:obj}python_repository repository_rule. This affects the
  {bzl:obj}python_register_toolchains and
  {bzl:obj}python_register_multi_toolchains callers in the WORKSPACE.

v0.39.0

Compare Source

{#v0-39-0-changed}

Changed

• (deps) bazel_skylib 1.6.1 -> 1.7.1
• (deps) rules_cc 0.0.9 -> 0.0.14
• (deps) protobuf 24.4 -> 29.0-rc2
• (deps) rules_proto 6.0.0-rc1 -> 6.0.2
• (deps) stardoc 0.6.2 -> 0.7.1
• For bzlmod, Bazel 7.4 is now the minimum Bazel version.
• (toolchains) Use the latest indygreg toolchain release 20241016 for Python versions:
  • 3.9.20
  • 3.10.15
  • 3.11.10
  • 3.12.7
  • 3.13.0
• (pypi) The naming scheme for the bzlmod spoke repositories have changed as
  all of the given requirements.txt files are now parsed by default, to
  temporarily restore the behavior, you can use
  {bzl:obj}pip.parse.extra_hub_aliases, which will be removed or made noop in
  the future.

{#v0-39-0-fixed}

Fixed

• (precompiling) Skip precompiling (instead of erroring) if the legacy
  @bazel_tools//tools/python:autodetecting_toolchain is being used
  (#​2364).

{#v0-39-0-added}

Added

• Bazel 8 is now supported.
• (toolchain) Support for freethreaded Python toolchains is now available. Use
  the config flag //python/config_settings:py_freethreaded to toggle the
  selection of the free-threaded toolchains.
• (toolchain) {obj}py_runtime.abi_flags attribute and
  {obj}PyRuntimeInfo.abi_flags field added.

{#v0-39-0-removed}

Removed

• Support for Bazel 6 using bzlmod has been dropped.

{#v0-38-0}

v0.38.0

Compare Source

{#v0-38-0-changed}

Changed

• (deps) (WORKSPACE only) rules_cc 0.0.13 and protobuf 27.0 is now the default
  version used; this for Bazel 8+ support (previously version was rules_cc 0.0.9
  and no protobuf version specified)
  (2310).
• (publish) The dependencies have been updated to the latest available versions
  for the twine publishing rule.
• (whl_library) Remove --no-build-isolation to allow non-hermetic sdist builds
  by default. Users wishing to keep this argument and to enforce more hermetic
  builds can do so by passing the argument in
  pip.parse#extra_pip_args
• (pip.parse) {attr}pip.parse.whl_modifications now normalizes the given whl names
  and now pyyaml and PyYAML will both work.
• (bzlmod) pip.parse spoke repository naming will be changed in an upcoming
  release in places where the users specify different package versions per
  platform in the same hub repository. The naming of the spoke repos is
  considered an implementation detail and we advise the users to use the hub
  repository directly and make use of {bzl:obj}pip.parse.extra_hub_aliases
  feature added in this release.

{#v0-38-0-fixed}

Fixed

• (pypi) (Bazel 7.4+) Allow spaces in filenames included in whl_librarys
  (617).
• (pypi) When {attr}pip.parse.experimental_index_url is set, we need to still
  pass the extra_pip_args value when building an sdist.
• (pypi) The patched wheel filenames from now on are using local version specifiers
  which fixes usage of the said wheels using standard package managers.
• (bzlmod) The extension evaluation has been adjusted to always generate the
  same lock file irrespective if experimental_index_url is set by any module
  or not. To opt into this behavior, set
  {bzl:obj}pip.parse.parse_all_requirements_files, which will become the
  default in future releases leading up to 1.0.0. Fixes
  #​2268. A known
  issue is that it may break bazel query and in these use cases it is
  advisable to use cquery or switch to download_only = True

{#v0-38-0-added}

Added

• (publish) The requirements file for the twine publishing rules have been
  updated to have a new convention: requirements_darwin.txt,
  requirements_linux.txt, requirements_windows.txt for each respective OS
  and one extra file requirements_universal.txt if you prefer a single file.
  The requirements.txt file may be removed in the future.
• The rules_python version is now reported in //python/features.bzl#features.version
• (pip.parse) {attr}pip.parse.extra_hub_aliases can now be used to expose extra
  targets created by annotations in whl repositories.
  Fixes #​2187.
• (bzlmod) pip.parse now supports whl-only setup using
  download_only = True where users can specify multiple requirements files
  and use the pip backend to do the downloading. This was only available for
  users setting {bzl:obj}pip.parse.experimental_index_url, but now users have
  more options whilst we continue to work on stabilizing the experimental feature.

Full Changelog: bazelbuild/rules_python@0.37.1...0.37.2

v0.37.1

Compare Source

{#v0-37-1-fixed}

Fixed

• (rules) Setting --incompatible_python_disallow_native_rules no longer
  causes rules_python rules to fail
  (#​2326).

{#v0-37-0}

v0.37.0

Compare Source

{#v0-37-0-changed}

Changed

• BREAKING py_library no longer puts its source files or generated pyc
  files in runfiles; it's the responsibility of consumers (e.g. binaries) to
  populate runfiles with the necessary files. Adding source files to runfiles
  can be temporarily restored by setting {obj}--add_srcs_to_runfiles=enabled,
  but this flag will be removed in a subsequent releases.
• {obj}PyInfo.transitive_sources is now added to runfiles. These files are
  .py files that are required to be added to runfiles by downstream binaries
  (or equivalent).
• (toolchains) py_runtime.implementation_name now defaults to cpython
  (previously it defaulted to None).
• (toolchains) The exec tools toolchain is enabled by default. It can be
  disabled by setting
  {obj}--@​rules_python//python/config_settings:exec_tools_toolchain=disabled.
• (deps) stardoc 0.6.2 added as dependency.

{#v0-37-0-fixed}

Fixed

• (bzlmod) The python.override(minor_mapping) now merges the default and the
  overridden versions ensuring that the resultant minor_mapping will always
  have all of the python versions.
• (bzlmod) The default value for the {obj}--python_version flag will now be
  always set to the default python toolchain version value.
• (bzlmod) correctly wire the {attr}pip.parse.extra_pip_args all the
  way to {obj}whl_library. What is more we will pass the extra_pip_args to
  {obj}whl_library for sdist distributions when using
  {attr}pip.parse.experimental_index_url. See
  #​2239.
• (whl_filegroup): Provide per default also the RECORD file
• (py_wheel): RECORD file entry elements are now quoted if necessary when a
  wheel is created
• (whl_library) truncate progress messages from the repo rule to better handle
  case where a requirement has many --hash=sha256:... flags
• (rules) compile_pip_requirements passes env to the X.update target (and
  not only to the X_test target, a bug introduced in
  #​1067).
• (bzlmod) In hybrid bzlmod with WORKSPACE builds,
  python_register_toolchains(register_toolchains=True) is respected
  (#​1675).
• (precompiling) The {obj}pyc_collection attribute now correctly
  enables (or disables) using pyc files from targets transitively
• (pip) Skip patching wheels not matching pip.override's file
  (#​2294).
• (chore): Add a rules_shell dev dependency and moved a sh_test target
  outside of the //:BUILD.bazel file.
  Fixes #​2299.

{#v0-37-0-added}

Added

• (py_wheel) Now supports compress = (True|False) to allow disabling
  compression to speed up development.
• (toolchains): A public //python/config_settings:python_version_major_minor has
  been exposed for users to be able to match on the X.Y version of a Python
  interpreter.
• (api) Added {obj}merge_py_infos() so user rules can merge and propagate
  PyInfo without losing information.
• (toolchains) New Python versions available: 3.13.0 using the 20241008 release.
• (toolchains): Bump default toolchain versions to:
  • 3.8 -> 3.8.20
  • 3.9 -> 3.9.20
  • 3.10 -> 3.10.15
  • 3.11 -> 3.11.10
  • 3.12 -> 3.12.7
• (coverage) Add support for python 3.13 and bump coverage.py to 7.6.1.
• (bzlmod) Add support for download_only flag to disable usage of sdists
  when {bzl:attr}pip.parse.experimental_index_url is set.
• (api) PyInfo fields: {obj}PyInfo.transitive_implicit_pyc_files,
  {obj}PyInfo.transitive_implicit_pyc_source_files.

{#v0-37-0-removed}

Removed

• (precompiling) {obj}--precompile_add_to_runfiles has been removed.
• (precompiling) {obj}--pyc_collection has been removed. The pyc_collection
  attribute now bases its default on {obj}--precompile.
• (precompiling) The {obj}precompile=if_generated_source value has been removed.
• (precompiling) The {obj}precompile_source_retention=omit_if_generated_source value has been removed.

{#v0-36-0}

v0.36.0

Compare Source

Changed

• (gazelle): Update error messages when unable to resolve a dependency to be more human-friendly.
• (flags) The {obj}--python_version flag now also returns
  {obj}config_common.FeatureFlagInfo.
• (toolchain): The toolchain patches now expose the patch_strip attribute
  that one should use when patching toolchains. Please set it if you are
  patching python interpreter. In the next release the default will be set to
  0 which better reflects the defaults used in public bazel APIs.
• (toolchains) When {obj}py_runtime.interpreter_version_info isn't specified,
  the {obj}--python_version flag will determine the value. This allows
  specifying the build-time Python version for the
  {obj}runtime_env_toolchains.
• (toolchains) {obj}py_cc_toolchain.libs and {obj}PyCcToolchainInfo.libs is
  optional. This is to support situations where only the Python headers are
  available.
• (bazel) Minimum bazel 7 version that we test against has been bumped to 7.1.

Fixed

• (whl_library): Remove --no-index and add --no-build-isolation to the
  pip install command when installing a wheel from a local file, which happens
  when experimental_index_url flag is used.
• (bzlmod) get the path to the host python interpreter in a way that results in
  platform non-dependent hashes in the lock file when the requirement markers need
  to be evaluated.
• (bzlmod) correctly watch sources used for evaluating requirement markers for
  any changes so that the repository rule or module extensions can be
  re-evaluated when the said files change.
• (gazelle): Fix incorrect use of t.Fatal/t.Fatalf in tests.
• (toolchain) Omit third-party python packages from coverage reports from
  stage2 bootstrap template.
• (bzlmod) Properly handle relative path URLs in parse_simpleapi_html.bzl
• (gazelle) Correctly resolve deps that have top-level module overlap with a gazelle_python.yaml dep module
• (rules) Make RUNFILES_MANIFEST_FILE-based invocations work when used with
  {obj}--bootstrap_impl=script. This fixes invocations using non-sandboxed
  test execution with --enable_runfiles=false --build_runfile_manifests=true.
  (#​2186).
• (py_wheel) Fix incorrectly generated Required-Dist when specifying requirements with markers
  in extra_requires in py_wheel rule.
• (rules) Prevent pytest from trying run the generated stage2
  bootstrap .py file when using {obj}--bootstrap_impl=script
• (toolchain) The {bzl:obj}gen_python_config_settings has been fixed to include
  the flag_values from the platform definitions.

Added

• (bzlmod): Toolchain overrides can now be done using the new
  {bzl:obj}python.override, {bzl:obj}python.single_version_override and
  {bzl:obj}python.single_version_platform_override tag classes.
  See #​2081.
• (rules) Executables provide {obj}PyExecutableInfo, which contains
  executable-specific information useful for packaging an executable or
  or deriving a new one from the original.
• (py_wheel) Removed use of bash to avoid failures on Windows machines which do not
  have it installed.
• (docs) Automatically generated documentation for {bzl:obj}python_register_toolchains
  and related symbols.
• (toolchains) Added {attr}python_repository.patch_strip attribute for
  allowing values that are other than 1, which has been hard-coded up until
  now. If you are relying on the undocumented patches support in
  TOOL_VERSIONS for registering patched toolchains please consider setting
  the patch_strip explicitly to 1 if you depend on this value - in the
  future the value may change to default to 0.
• (toolchains) Added //python:none, a special target for use with
  {obj}py_exec_tools_toolchain.exec_interpreter to treat the value as None.

Removed

• (toolchains): Removed accidentally exposed http_archive symbol from
  python/repositories.bzl.
• (toolchains): An internal is_python_config_setting macro has been removed.

v0.35.0

Compare Source

Changed

• (whl_library) A better log message when the wheel is built from an sdist or
  when the wheel is downloaded using download_only feature to aid debugging.
• (gazelle): Simplify and make gazelle_python.yaml have only top level package name.
  It would work well in cases to reduce merge conflicts.
• (toolchains): Change some old toochain versions to use 20240726 release to
  include dependency updates 3.8.19, 3.9.19, 3.10.14, 3.11.9
• (toolchains): Bump default toolchain versions to:
  • 3.12 -> 3.12.4
• (rules) PYTHONSAFEPATH is inherited from the calling environment to allow
  disabling it (Requires {obj}--bootstrap_impl=script)
  (#​2060).

Fixed

• (rules) compile_pip_requirements now sets the USERPROFILE env variable on
  Windows to work around an issue where setuptools fails to locate the user's
  home directory.
• (rules) correctly handle absolute URLs in parse_simpleapi_html.bzl.
• (rules) Fixes build targets linking against @rules_python//python/cc:current_py_cc_libs
  in host platform builds on macOS, by editing the LC_ID_DYLIB field of the hermetic interpreter's
  libpython3.x.dylib using install_name_tool, setting it to its absolute path under Bazel's
  execroot.
• (rules) Signals are properly received when using {obj}--bootstrap_impl=script
  (for non-zip builds).
  (#​2043)
• (rules) Fixes Python builds when the --build_python_zip is set to false on
  Windows. See #​1840.
• (rules) Fixes Mac + --build_python_zip + {obj}--bootstrap_impl=script
  (#​2030).
• (rules) User dependencies come before runtime site-packages when using
  {obj}--bootstrap_impl=script.
  (#​2064).
• (rules) Version-aware rules now return both @_builtins and @rules_python
  providers instead of only one.
  (#​2114).
• (pip) Fixed pypi parse_simpleapi_html function for feeds with package metadata
  containing ">" sign
• (toolchains) Added missing executable permission to
  //python/runtime_env_toolchains interpreter script so that it is runnable.
  (#​2085).
• (pip) Correctly use the sdist downloaded by the bazel downloader when using
  experimental_index_url feature. Fixes
  #​2091.
• (gazelle) Make gazelle_python_manifest.update manual to avoid unnecessary
  network behavior.
• (bzlmod): The conflicting toolchains during python extension will no longer
  cause warnings by default. In order to see the warnings for diagnostic purposes
  set the env var RULES_PYTHON_REPO_DEBUG_VERBOSITY to one of INFO, DEBUG or TRACE.
  Fixes #​1818.
• (runfiles) Make runfiles lookups work for the situation of Bazel 7,
  Python 3.9 (or earlier, where safepath isn't present), and the Rlocation call
  in the same directory as the main file.
  Fixes #​1631.

Added

• (rules) compile_pip_requirements supports multiple requirements input files as srcs.
• (rules) PYTHONSAFEPATH is inherited from the calling environment to allow
  disabling it (Requires {obj}--bootstrap_impl=script)
  (#​2060).
• (gazelle) Added python_generation_mode_per_package_require_test_entry_point
  in order to better accommodate users who use a custom macro,
  pytest-bazel, rules_python_pytest or rules_py
  py_test_main in order to integrate with pytest. Currently the default
  flag value is set to true for backwards compatible behaviour, but in the
  future the flag will be flipped be false by default.
• (toolchains) New Python versions available: 3.12.4 using the 20240726 release.
• (pypi) Support env markers in requirements files. Note, that this means that
  if your requirements files contain env markers, the Python interpreter will
  need to be run during bzlmod phase to evaluate them. This may incur
  downloading an interpreter (for hermetic-based builds) or cause non-hermetic
  behavior (if using a system Python).

v0.34.0

Compare Source

Changed

• protobuf/com_google_protobuf dependency bumped to v24.4
• (bzlmod): optimize the creation of config settings used in pip to
  reduce the total number of targets in the hub repo.
• (toolchains) The exec tools toolchain now finds its interpreter by reusing
  the regular interpreter toolchain. This avoids having to duplicate specifying
  where the runtime for the exec tools toolchain is.
• (toolchains) ({obj}//python:autodetecting_toolchain) is deprecated. It is
  replaced by {obj}//python/runtime_env_toolchains:all. The old target will be
  removed in a future release.

Fixed

• (bzlmod): When using experimental_index_url the all_requirements,
  all_whl_requirements and all_data_requirements will now only include
  common packages that are available on all target platforms. This is to ensure
  that packages that are only present for some platforms are pulled only via
  the deps of the materialized py_library. If you would like to include
  platform specific packages, using a select statement with references to the
  specific package will still work (e.g.
  my_attr = all_requirements + select(
  {
  "@​platforms//os:linux": ["@​pypi//foo_available_only_on_linux"],
  "//conditions:default": [],
  }
  )
• (bzlmod): Targets in all_requirements now use the same form as targets returned by the requirement macro.
• (rules) Auto exec groups are enabled. This allows actions run by the rules,
  such as precompiling, to pick an execution platform separately from what
  other toolchains support.
• (providers) {obj}PyRuntimeInfo doesn't require passing the
  interpreter_version_info arg.
• (bzlmod) Correctly pass isolated, quiet and timeout values to whl_library
  and drop the defaults from the lock file.
• (whl_library) Correctly handle arch-specific dependencies when we encounter a
  platform specific wheel and use experimental_target_platforms.
  Fixes #​1996.
• (rules) The first element of the default outputs is now the executable again.
• (pip) Fixed crash when pypi packages lacked a sha (e.g. yanked packages)

Added

• (toolchains) {obj}//python/runtime_env_toolchains:all, which is a drop-in
  replacement for the "autodetecting" toolchain.
• (gazelle) Added new python_label_convention and python_label_normalization directives. These directive
  allows altering default Gazelle label format to third-party dependencies useful for re-using Gazelle plugin
  with other rules, including rules_pycross. See #​1939.

Removed

• (pip): Removes the entrypoint macro that was replaced by py_console_script_binary in 0.26.0.

v0.33.2

Compare Source

{#v0-33-2-fixed}

Fixed

• (toolchains) The {obj}exec_tools_toolchain_type is disabled by default.
  To enable it, set {obj}--//python/config_settings:exec_tools_toolchain=enabled.
  This toolchain must be enabled for precompilation to work. This toolchain will
  be enabled by default in a future release.
  Fixes #​1967.

{#v0-33-1}

v0.33.1

Compare Source

{#v0-33-1-fixed}

Fixed

• (py_binary) Fix building of zip file when using --build_python_zip
  argument. Fixes #​1954.

{#v0-33-0}

v0.33.0

Compare Source

{#v0-33-0-changed}

Changed

• (deps) Upgrade the pip_install dependencies to pick up a new version of pip.
• (toolchains) Optional toolchain dependency: py_binary, py_test, and
  py_library now depend on the //python:exec_tools_toolchain_type for build
  tools.
• (deps): Bumped bazel_skylib to 1.6.1.
• (bzlmod): The python and internal rules_python extensions have been
  marked as reproducible and will not include any lock file entries from now
  on.
• (gazelle): Remove gazelle plugin's python deps and make it hermetic.
  Introduced a new Go-based helper leveraging tree-sitter for syntax analysis.
  Implemented the use of pypi/stdlib-list for standard library module verification.
• (pip.parse): Do not ignore yanked packages when using experimental_index_url.
  This is to mimic what uv is doing. We will print a warning instead.
• (pip.parse): Add references to all supported wheels when using experimental_index_url
  to allowing to correctly fetch the wheels for the right platform. See the
  updated docs on how to use the feature. This is work towards addressing
  #​735 and
  #​260. The spoke
  repository names when using this flag will have a structure of
  {pip_hub_prefix}_{wheel_name}_{py_tag}_{abi_tag}_{platform_tag}_{sha256},
  which is an implementation detail which should not be relied on and is there
  purely for better debugging experience.
• (bzlmod) The pythons_hub//:interpreters.bzl no longer has platform-specific
  labels which where left there for compatibility reasons. Move to
  python_{version}_host keys if you would like to have access to a Python
  interpreter that can be used in a repository rule context.

{#v0-33-0-fixed}

Fixed

• (gazelle) Remove visibility from NonEmptyAttr.
  Now empty(have no deps/main/srcs/imports attr) py_library/test/binary rules will
  be automatically deleted correctly. For example, if python_generation_mode
  is set to package, when __init__.py is deleted, the py_library generated
  for this package before will be deleted automatically.
• (whl_library): Use is_python_config_setting to correctly handle multi-python
  version dependency select statements when the experimental_target_platforms
  includes the Python ABI. The default python version case within the select is
  also now handled correctly, stabilizing the implementation.
• (gazelle) Fix Gazelle failing on Windows with
  "panic: runtime error: invalid memory address or nil pointer dereference"
• (bzlmod) remove pip.parse(annotations) attribute as it is unused and has been
  replaced by whl_modifications.
• (pip) Correctly select wheels when the python tag includes minor versions.
  See (#​1930)
• (pip.parse): The lock file is now reproducible on any host platform if the
  experimental_index_url is not used by any of the modules in the dependency
  chain. To make the lock file identical on each os and arch, please use
  the experimental_index_url feature which will fetch metadata from PyPI or a
  different private index and write the contents to the lock file. Fixes
  #​1643.
• (pip.parse): Install yanked packages and print a warning instead of
  ignoring them. This better matches the behaviour of uv pip install.
• (toolchains): Now matching of the default hermetic toolchain is more robust
  and explicit and should fix rare edge-cases where the host toolchain
  autodetection would match a different toolchain than expected. This may yield
  to toolchain selection failures when the python toolchain is not registered,
  but is requested via //python/config_settings:python_version flag setting.
• (doc) Fix the WORKSPACE requirement vendoring example. Fixes
  #​1918.

{#v0-33-0-added}

Added

• (rules) Precompiling Python source at build time is available. but is
  disabled by default, for now. Set
  @rules_python//python/config_settings:precompile=enabled to enable it
  by default. A subsequent release will enable it by default. See the
  Precompiling docs and API reference docs for more
  information on precompiling. Note this requires Bazel 7+ and the Pystar rule
  implementation enabled.
  (#​1761)
• (rules) Attributes and flags to control precompile behavior: precompile,
  precompile_optimize_level, precompile_source_retention,
  precompile_invalidation_mode, and pyc_collection
• (toolchains) The target runtime toolchain (//python:toolchain_type) has
  two new optional attributes: pyc_tag (tells the pyc filename infix to use) and
  implementation_name (tells the Python implementation name).
• (toolchains) A toolchain type for build tools has been added:
  //python:exec_tools_toolchain_type.
• (providers) PyInfo has two new attributes: direct_pyc_files and
  transitive_pyc_files, which tell the pyc files a target makes available
  directly and transitively, respectively.
• //python:features.bzl added to allow easy feature-detection in the future.
• (pip) Allow specifying the requirements by (os, arch) and add extra
  validations when parsing the inputs. This is a non-breaking change for most
  users unless they have been passing multiple requirements_* files together
  with extra_pip_args = ["--platform=manylinux_2_4_x86_64"], that was an
  invalid usage previously but we were not failing the build. From now on this
  is explicitly disallowed.
• (toolchains) Added riscv64 platform definition for python toolchains.
• (gazelle) The python_visibility directive now supports the $python_root$
  placeholder, just like the python_default_visibility directive does.
• (rules) A new bootstrap implementation that doesn't require a system Python
  is available. It can be enabled by setting
  {obj}--@​rules_python//python/config_settings:bootstrap_impl=script. It
  will become the default in a subsequent release.
  (#​691)
• (providers) PyRuntimeInfo has two new attributes:
  {obj}PyRuntimeInfo.stage2_bootstrap_template and
  {obj}PyRuntimeInfo.zip_main_template.
• (toolchains) A replacement for the Bazel-builtn autodetecting toolchain is
  available. The //python:autodetecting_toolchain alias now uses it.
• (pip): Support fetching and using the wheels for other platforms. This
  supports customizing whether the linux wheels are pulled for musl or
  glibc, whether universal2 or arch-specific MacOS wheels are preferred and
  it also allows to select a particular libc version. All of this is done via
  the string_flags in @rules_python//python/config_settings. If there are
  no wheels that are supported for the target platform, rules_python will
  fallback onto building the sdist from source. This behaviour can be
  disabled if desired using one of the available string flags as well.
• (whl_filegroup) Added a new whl_filegroup rule to extract files from a wheel file.
  This is useful to extract headers for use in a cc_library.
