# Changelog

## 1.0.3 (2023-09-06)

- Avoid CPython 3.8.17, 3.9.17, 3.10.12, and 3.11.4 tarfile symlink bug triggered by adding `data_filter` in 1.0.0. (PR #675, fixes issue #674)

## 1.0.0 (2023-09-01)

- Removed the `toml` library fallback; `toml` can no longer be used as a substitute for `tomli` (PR #567)

- Added `runner` parameter to `util.project_wheel_metadata` (PR #566, fixes issue #553)

- Modified `ProjectBuilder` constructor signature, added alternative `ProjectBuilder.from_env` constructor, redefined `env.IsolatedEnv` interface, and exposed `env.DefaultIsolatedEnv`, replacing `env.IsolatedEnvBuilder`. The aim has been to shift responsibility for modifying the environment from the project builder to the `IsolatedEnv` entirely and to ensure that the builder will be initialised from an `IsolatedEnv` in a consistent manner. Mutating the project builder is no longer supported. (PR #537)

- `virtualenv` is no longer imported when using `-n`, for faster builds (PR #636, fixes issue #510)

- The SDist now contains the repository contents, including tests. Flit-core 3.8+ required. (PR #657, #661, fixes issue #656)

- The minimum version of `importlib-metadata` has been increased to 4.6 and Python 3.10 due to a bug in the standard library version with URL requirements in extras. This is still not required for 3.8 when bootstrapping (as long as you don’t have URL requirements in extras). (PR #631, fixes issue #630)

- Docs now built with Sphinx 7 (PR #660)

- Tests now contain a `network` marker (PR #649, fixes issue #648)

- Config-settings are now passed to `get_requires*` hooks, fixing a long standing bug. If this affects your setuptools build, you can use `-C--build-option=<cmd> -C--build-option=<option>` to workaround an issue with Setuptools not allowing unrecognised build options when running this hook. (PR #627, fixes issue #264)

- Test on Python 3.12 betas/RCs (PR #624)

- Filter out malicious files when extracting tar archives when Python supports it (PR #609)

- Specify encoding, fixing issues when `PYTHONWARNDEFAULTENCODING` is set. (PR #587, fixes issue #577)

- Ruff is now used for linting.

## 0.10.0 (2023-01-11)

- Replace `pep517` dependency with `pyproject_hooks`, into which `pep517` has been renamed (PR #539, Fixes #529)

- Change build backend from `setuptools` to `flit` (PR #470, Fixes #394)

- Dropped support for Python 3.6 (PR #532)

## 0.9.0 (2022-10-27)

- Hide a Python 3.11.0 unavoidable warning with venv (PR #527)

- Fix infinite recursion error in `check_dependency` with circular dependencies (PR #512, Fixes #511)

- Only import colorama on Windows (PR #494, Fixes #493)

- Flush output more often to reduce interleaved output (PR #494)

- Small API cleanup, like better `_all__` and srcdir being read only. (PR #477)

- Only use `importlib_metadata` when needed (PR #401)

- Clarify in printout when build dependencies are being installed (PR #514)

## 0.8.0 (2022-05-22)

- Accept `os.PathLike[str]` in addition to `str` for paths in public API (PR #392, Fixes #372)

- Add schema validation for `build-system` table to check conformity with PEP 517 and PEP 518 (PR #365, Fixes #364)

- Better support for Python 3.11 (sysconfig schemes PR #434, PR #463, tomllib PR #443, warnings PR #420)

- Improved error printouts (PR #442)

- Avoid importing packaging unless needed (PR #395, Fixes #393)

### Breaking Changes

- Failure to create a virtual environment in the `build.env` module now raises `build.FailedProcessError` (PR #442)

## 0.7.0 (2021-09-16)

- Add `build.util` module with an high-level utility API (PR #340)

## 0.6.0.post1 (2021-08-05)

- Fix compatibility with Python 3.6 and 3.7 (PR #339, Fixes #338)

## 0.6.0 (2021-08-02)

- Improved output (PR #333, Fixes #142)

- The CLI now honors `NO_COLOR` (PR #333)

- Added logging to `build` and `build.env` (PR #333)

- Switch to a TOML v1 compliant parser (PR #336, Fixes #308)

### Breaking Changes

- Dropped support for Python 2 and 3.5.

## 0.5.1 (2021-06-22)

- Fix invoking the backend on an inexistent output directory with multiple levels (PR #318, Fixes #316)

- When building wheels via sdists, use an isolated temporary directory (PR #321, Fixes #320)

- Add `ProjectBuilder.metadata_path` helper (PR #303, Fixes #301)

- Added a `build.__main__.build_package_via_sdist` method (PR #304)

- Use appropriate installation scheme for Apple Python venvs (PR #314, Fixes #310)

### Breaking Changes

- Binary distributions are now built via the sdist by default in the CLI (PR #304, Fixes #257) - `python -m build` will now build a sdist, extract it, and build a wheel from the source

- As a side-effect of PR #304, `build.__main__.build_package` no longer does CLI error handling (print nice message and exit the program)

- Importing `build.__main__` no longer has any side-effects, it no longer overrides `warnings.showwarning` or runs `colorama.init` on import (PR #312)

## 0.4.0 (2021-05-23)

- Validate that the supplied source directory is valid (PR #260, Fixes #259)

- Set and test minimum versions of build’s runtime dependencies (PR #267, Fixes #263)

- Use symlinks on creating venv’s when available (PR #274, Fixes #271)

- Error sooner if pip upgrade is required and fails (PR #288, Fixes #256)

- Add a `runner` argument to `ProjectBuilder` (PR #290, Fixes #289)

- Hide irrelevant `pep517` error traceback and improve error messages (PR #296)

- Try to use `colorama` to fix colors on Windows (PR #300)

### Breaking Changes

- As a side-effect of PR #260, projects not containing either a `pyproject.toml` or `setup.py` will be reported as invalid. This affects projects specifying only a `setup.cfg`, such projects are recommended to add a `pyproject.toml`. The new behavior is on par with what pip currently does, so if you are affected by this, your project should not be pip installable.

- The `--skip-dependencies` option has been renamed to `--skip-dependency-check` (PR #297)

- The `skip_dependencies` argument of `build.__main__.build_package` has been renamed to `skip_dependency_check` (PR #297)

- `build.ConfigSettings` has been renamed to `build.ConfigSettingsType` (PR #298)

- `build.ProjectBuilder.build_dependencies` to `build.ProjectBuilder.build_system_requires` (PR #284, Fixes #182)

- `build.ProjectBuilder.get_dependencies` to `build.ProjectBuilder.get_requires_for_build` (PR #284, Fixes #182)

## 0.3.1 (2021-03-09)

- Support direct usage from pipx run in 0.16.1.0+ (PR #247)

- Use UTF-8 encoding when reading pyproject.toml (PR #251, Fixes #250)

## 0.3.0 (2021-02-19)

- Upgrade pip based on venv pip version, avoids error on Debian Python 3.6.5-3.8 or issues installing wheels on Big Sur (PR #229, PR #230, Fixes #228)

- Build dependencies in isolation, instead of in the build environment (PR #232, Fixes #231)

- Fallback on venv if virtualenv is too old (PR #241)

- Add metadata preparation hook (PR #217, Fixes #130)

## 0.2.1 (2021-02-09)

## 0.2.0 (2021-02-07)

- Check dependencies recursively (PR #183, Fixes #25)

- Build wheel and sdist distributions in separate environments, as they may have different dependencies (PR #195, Fixes #194)

- Add support for pre-releases in `check_dependency` (PR #204, Fixes #191)
