Griffe
Signatures for entire Python programs. Extract the structure, the frame, the skeleton of your project, to generate API documentation or find breaking changes in your API.
Griffe, pronounced "grif" (/ɡʁif/), is a french word that means "claw",
but also "signature" in a familiar way. "On reconnaît bien là sa griffe."
Installation
pip install griffe
With uv:
uv tool install griffe
Usage
Dump JSON-serialized API
On the command line, pass the names of packages to the griffe dump command:
$ griffe dump httpx fastapi
{
"httpx": {
"name": "httpx",
...
},
"fastapi": {
"name": "fastapi",
...
}
}
See the Serializing chapter for more examples.
Check for API breaking changes
Pass a relative path to the griffe check command:
$ griffe check mypackage --verbose
mypackage/mymodule.py:10: MyClass.mymethod(myparam):
Parameter kind was changed:
Old: positional or keyword
New: keyword-only
For src layouts:
$ griffe check --search src mypackage --verbose
src/mypackage/mymodule.py:10: MyClass.mymethod(myparam):
Parameter kind was changed:
Old: positional or keyword
New: keyword-only
It's also possible to directly check packages from PyPI.org
(or other indexes configured through PIP_INDEX_URL).
This feature requires that you install Griffe with the pypi extra:
pip install griffe[pypi]
The command syntax is:
griffe check package_name -b project-name==2.0 -a project-name==1.0
See the Checking chapter for more examples.
Load and navigate data with Python
With Python, loading a package:
import griffe
fastapi = griffe.load("fastapi")
Finding breaking changes:
import griffe
previous = griffe.load_git("mypackage", ref="0.2.0")
current = griffe.load("mypackage")
for breakage in griffe.find_breaking_changes(previous, current):
...
See the Loading chapter for more examples.
