November 2024:
Migrated Python projects from poetry to uv, a new Rust-based package and project manager.
It’s impressive to see Rust revitalizing tooling in Python and Node.js. What might come next?
-
Updated to UNIHAN @ Revision 37.
October 2024:
Faster test fixtures:
libvcs: v0.33.0 (diff): 50% faster.
vcspull: v1.32.0 (diff): 33% faster.
Additional improvements to pytest fixtures are expected, along with significant enhancements like new options and hooks support in libtmux.

libvcs: v0.30.1 (diff): Support for AWS CodeCommit URLs.
CV: Added sidebar of years, track current year in top menu while scrolling.
April-June 2024:
libtmux: Working on options and hooks: libtmux#516
March 2024:
libtmux refactoring continues
Automated fixes via ruff
Machine-made refactors rendering consistent, tight python code:
February 2024: Busman’s holiday
-
API streamlining (e.g.,
Pane.select_pane()->Pane.select())Up next: Options and hooks: libtmux#516
CV: Add timeline to pull requests
-
v0.31.0 (diff): Support updated from UNIHAN at Unicode 11.0.0 (May 2018) to 15.1.0 (Sept 2023), via unihan-etl#309.
v0.32.0 (diff): Highlight examples on the front page: unihan-etl#253, unihan-etl#314.

January 2024:
December 2023:
Moved my CV and social-embed project to
oxlintbiome, a Rust-based linter and formatter:Documented even more projects w/ ruff’s pydocstyle linter:
November 2023
social-embed: Upgraded website from docusaurus v2 to v3 (diff).
Linted project documentation with pydocstyle + ruff:
October 2023 - Overhauled django-docutils
django-docutils - a django package for reStructuredText - is being dusted off.
-
Renamed template tags / filters from
restructuredtexttorstEnabled template tags to accept block content, e.g.
{% load django_docutils %} {% rst %} **my bold text** {% endrst %}
Added test coverage for template tags and template engine.
v0.19.0 (diff): Typings for settings, cleanup, documentation
This package, originally part of a blog that combined django ORM + django views + intersphinx, remained unused in the attic until last month. It is now known as
django-docutils.-
Late September 2023 - More mypy
--strictcompliant typingsEarly September 2023 - More quality improvements
August 2023 - Continued quality improvements
Building upon the improvements made to ruff in July 2023, the following additional projects have now been revitalized:
August 2023 - CV Website updated
Dark mode
Renewed design with CSS variables
July 2023 - Improved Quality Standards
This enhances the maintainability of projects by employing ruff, a Python linter/fixer developed in Rust:
June 2023 - social-embed moved to vite.
P.S. cihai updates ongoing (updated below)
May-June 2023 - cihai is being revamped
After over 5 years of inactivity, this suite of packages has been revived.
cihai updates:
May 25th, 2023 - 0.20.0: Adds mypy
--strictcompliant typingsJune 3rd, 2023 - 0.21.0: Migrate from SQLAlchemy v1.3 to SQLAlchemy v2.0
cihai-cli updates:
June 4th, 2023: 0.17.0: Introduced mypy
--strictcompliant typings and transitioned from SQLAlchemy 1.3 to SQLAlchemy 2.0.
unihan-etl updates:
June 12th, 2023: 0.21.0: Move to
pathlib, type callbacks viatyping.Protocol.June 17th, 2023: 0.22.0:
Add
doctestsupportConfiguration: Move options from
dictto typeddataclassobject.Docs: Split API documentation into multiple pages
Move
unihan_etl.process->unihan_etl.core
unihan-db updates:
June 10th, 2023: 0.9.0: mypy
--strictcompliant typings and migrate from SQLAlchemy 1.3 to SQLAlchemy 2.0
In the future, cihai projects will have:
SQLAlchemy updated to 1.4, then 2.0+CompletedTypings, for improved maintainability and completions
Doctests for tested examples
unihan-etl and cihai will have their own pytest plugins for bootstrapping a UNIHAN.zip and reusing it throughout the test session.
In the medium to longterm: Simpler and stable APIs
December 2022 - I’m not giving up being successful
In 2023:
September 2022 - One more thing on doctest
I wrote a
doctestmodule that can parse reStructuredText and markdown:It also has a pytest plugin
On that note, I also made a pytest plugin for libtmux and libvcs:
tmux pytest plugin - bootstrap [tmux] sessions in your tests
libvcs pytest plugin - setup and teardown git, mercurial and subversion repos in your tests.
Mid August 2022 - Promises keep coming
Additionally, test and quality infrastructure has been improved across all projects:
Early August 2022 - Promises kept (and keep coming)
libvcs 0.14.0 released w/ typing annotations and doctests.
Also, added a URL Parser (compare to
urlparse) forgit,hg, andsvnURLs. Extensible usingframework tools. Built on dataclasses and usesdoctest.In the process, “side inventions” (License MIT):
SubprocessCommand: Deferrablesubprocesscommands.SkipDefaultFieldsReprMixin: Exclude default fields (useful for clearer pytest assertions / printing). Thanks Pietro Oldrati.
June 2022
libvcs and vcspull are being rebuilt from the ground up. This will be a fresh take on one of my earliest python projects. What they’ll be using:
doctest: actual code demo in documentation which also function as tests
dataclasses (experimental): As a library creator, I will put these to the test
The projects will be a proving ground for quality standards and patterns I’ll adopt across my other and future packages.
March 2022
All sites moved to new design.
