pex 0.8.4

The PEX packaging toolchain.

0.8.3

• Performance improvement: Don’t always write packages to disk if they’ve already been cached. This can significantly speed up launching PEX files with a large number of non-zip-safe dependencies. RB #1642

0.8.2

• Bug fix: Allow pex 0.8.x to parse pex files produced by earlier versions of pex and twitter.common.python.

• Pin pex to setuptools prior to 9.x until we have a chance to make changes related to PEP440 and the change of pkg_resources.py to a package.

0.8.1

• Bug fix: Fix issue where it’d be possible to os.path.getmtime on a remote Link object Issue #29

0.8.0

• API change: Decouple translation from package iteration. This removes the Obtainer construct entirely, which likely means if you’re using PEX as a library, you will need to change your code if you were doing anything nontrivial. This adds a couple new options to resolve but simplifies the story around how to cache packages. RB #785

• Refactor http handling in pex to allow for alternate http implementations. Adds support for requests, improving both performance and security. For more information, read the commit notes at 91c7f32. RB #778

• Improvements to API documentation throughout.

• Renamed Tracer to TraceLogger to prevent nondeterministic isort ordering.

• Refactor tox.ini to increase the number of environment combinations and improve coverage.

• Adds HTTP retry support for the RequestsContext. RB #1303

• Make pex –version correct. Issue #19

• Bug fix: Fix over-aggressive sys.modules scrubbing for namespace packages. Under certain circumstances, namespace packages in site-packages could conflict with packages within a PEX, causing them to fail importing. RB #1378

• Bug fix: Replace uses of os.unsetenv(...) with del os.environ[...] Pull Request #11

• Bug fix: Scrub sys.path and sys.modules based upon both supplied path and realpath of files and directories. Newer versions of virtualenv on Linux symlink site-packages which caused those packages to not be removed from sys.path correctly. Issue #21

• Bug fix: The pex -s option was not correctly pulling in transitive dependencies. Issue #22

• Bug fix: Adds content method to HTTP contexts that does HTML content decoding, fixing an encoding issue only experienced when using Python 3. Issue #10

0.7.0

• Rename twitter.common.python to pex and split out from the twitter/commons repo.

0.6.0

• Change the interpretation of -i (and of PyPIFetcher’s pypi_base) to match pip’s -i. This is useful for compatibility with devpi.

0.5.10

• Ensures that .egg/.whl distributions on disk have their mtime updated even though we no longer overwrite them. This gives them a new time lease against their ttl.

  Without this change, once a distribution aged past the ttl it would never be used again, and builds would re-create the same distributions in tmpdirs over and over again.

0.5.9

• Fixes an issue where SourceTranslator would overwrite .egg/.whl distributions already on disk. Instead it should always check to see if a copy already exists and reuse if there.

  This ordinarily should not be a problem but the zipimporter caches metadata by filename instead of stat/sha, so if the underlying contents changed a runtime error would be thrown due to seemingly corrupt zip file offsets. RB #684

0.5.8

• Adds -i/--index option to the pex tool.

0.5.7

• Adds twitter.common.python.pex_bootstrap bootstrap_pex_env function in order to initialize a PEX environment from within a python interpreter. (Patch contributed by @kwlzn)

• Adds stdin=,stdout=,stderr= keyword parameters to the PEX.run function. (Patch from @benjy)

0.5.6

• The crawler now defaults to not follow links for security reasons. (Before the default behavior was to implicitly --follow-links for all requirements.) RB #293

0.5.5

• Improves scrubbing of site-packages from PEX environments. RB #289

0.5.1 - 0.5.4

• Silences exceptions reported during interpreter teardown (the exceptions resulting from incorrect atexit handler behavior) introduced by 0.4.3 RB #253 RB #249

• Adds __hash__ to Link so that Packages are hashed correctly in twitter.common.python.resolver resolve

0.5.0

• Adds wheel support to twitter.common.python RB #94 RB #154 RB #148

0.4.3

• Adds twitter.common.python.finders which are additional finders for setuptools including: - find eggs within a .zip - find wheels within a directory - find wheels within a .zip RB #86

• Adds a new Package abstraction by refactoring Link into Link and Package. RB #92

• Adds support for PEP425 tagging necessary for wheel support. RB #87

• Improves python environment isolation by correctly scrubbing namespace packages injected into module __path__ attributes by nspkg pth files. RB #116

• Adds twitter.common.python.resolver resolve method that handles transitive dependency resolution better. This means that if the requirement futures==2.1.2 and an unqualified futures>=2 is pulled in transitively, our resolver will correctly resolve futures 2.1.2 instead of reporting a VersionConflict if any version newer than 2.1.2 is available. RB #129

• Factors all twitter.common.python test helpers into twitter.common.python.testing RB #91

• Bug fix: Fix OrderedSet atexit exceptions RB #147

• Bug fix: Fix cross-device symlinking (patch from @benjy)

• Bug fix: Raise a RuntimeError if we fail to write pkg_resources into a .pex RB #115

0.4.2

• Upgrade to setuptools>=1

0.4.1

• twitter.common.python is no longer a namespace package

0.4.0

• Kill the egg distiller. We now delegate .egg generation to bdist_egg. RB #55

0.3.1

• Short-circuit resolving a distribution if a local exact match is found. RB #47

• Correctly patch the global pkg_resources WorkingSet for the lifetime of the Python interpreter. RB #52

• Fixes a performance regression in setuptools build_zipmanifest Setuptools Issue #154 RB #53

0.3.0

• Plumb through the --zip-safe, --always-write-cache, --ignore-errors and --inherit-path flags to the pex tool.

• Delete the unused PythonDirWrapper code.

• Split PEXEnvironment resolution into twitter.common.python.environment and deconflate WorkingSet/Environment state.

• Removes the monkeypatched zipimporter in favor of keeping all eggs unzipped within PEX files. Refactors the PEX dependency cache in util.py

• Adds interpreter detection for Jython and PyPy.

• Dependency translation errors should be made uniform. (Patch from @johnsirois)

• Adds PEX_PROFILE_ENTRIES to limit the number of entries reported when PEX_PROFILE is enabled. (Patch from @rgs_)

• Bug fix: Several fixes to error handling in twitter.common.python.http (From Marc Abramowitz)

• Bug fix: PEX should not always assume that $PATH was available. (Patch from @jamesbroadhead)

• Bug fix: Filename should be part of the .pex cache key or else multiple identical versions will incorrectly resolve (Patch from @tc)

• Bug fix: Executed entry points shouldn’t be forced to run in an environment with __future__ imports enabled. (Patch from @lawson_patrick)

• Bug fix: Detect versionless egg links and fail fast. (Patch from @johnsirois.)

• Bug fix: Handle setuptools>=2.1 correctly in the zipimport monkeypatch (Patch from @johnsirois.)

0.2.3

• Bug fix: Fix handling of Fetchers with file:// urls.

0.2.2

• Adds the pex tool as a standalone tool.

0.2.1

• Bug fix: Bootstrapped twitter.common.python should declare twitter.common as a namespace package.

0.2.0

• Make twitter.common.python fully standalone by consolidating external dependencies within twitter.common.python.common.

0.1.0

• Initial published version of twitter.common.python.
