Documentation for specific MAJOR.MINOR versions can be chosen by using the dropdown on the top of every page. The dev version reflects changes that have not yet been released.

Also, desktop readers can use special keyboard shortcuts:

Builds are configured using the tool.hatch.build table. Every target is defined by a section within tool.hatch.build.targets, for example:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.sdist]\nexclude = [\n  \"/.github\",\n  \"/docs\",\n]\n\n[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel]\npackages = [\"src/foo\"]\n

Invoking the build command without any arguments will build the sdist and wheel targets:

$ hatch build\n[sdist]\ndist/hatch_demo-1rc0.tar.gz\n\n[wheel]\ndist/hatch_demo-1rc0-py3-none-any.whl\n

To only build specific targets, use the -t/--target option:

$ hatch build -t wheel\n[wheel]\ndist/hatch_demo-1rc0-py3-none-any.whl\n

If the target supports multiple versions, you can specify the exact versions to build by appending a colon followed by the desired versions separated by commas:

$ hatch -v build -t wheel:standard\n[wheel]\nBuilding `wheel` version `standard`\ndist/hatch_demo-1rc0-py3-none-any.whl\n
"},{"location":"build/#packaging-ecosystem","title":"Packaging ecosystem","text":"

Hatch complies with modern Python packaging specs and therefore your projects can be used by other tools with Hatch serving as just the build backend.

So you could use tox as an alternative to Hatch's environment management, or cibuildwheel to distribute packages for every platform, and they both will transparently use Hatch without any extra modification.

"},{"location":"environment/","title":"Environments","text":"

Environments are designed to allow for isolated workspaces for testing, building documentation, or anything else projects need.

Unless an environment is chosen explicitly, Hatch will use the default environment.

"},{"location":"environment/#creation","title":"Creation","text":"

You can create environments by using the env create command. Let's enter the directory of the project we created in the setup phase:

$ hatch env create\nCreating environment: default\nInstalling project in development mode\nSyncing dependencies\n

Tip

You never need to manually create environments as spawning a shell or running commands within one will automatically trigger creation.

"},{"location":"environment/#entering-environments","title":"Entering environments","text":"

You can spawn a shell within an environment by using the shell command.

$ hatch shell\n(hatch-demo) $\n

Now confirm the project has been installed:

(hatch-demo) $ pip show hatch-demo\nName: hatch-demo\nVersion: 0.0.1\n...\n

Finally, see where your environment's Python is located:

(hatch-demo) $ python -c \"import sys;print(sys.executable)\"\n...\n

"},{"location":"environment/#dependencies","title":"Dependencies","text":"

Hatch ensures that environments are always compatible with the currently defined project dependencies (if installed and in dev mode) and environment dependencies.

To add cowsay as a dependency, open pyproject.toml and add it to the dependencies array:

pyproject.toml
[project]\n...\ndependencies = [\n  \"cowsay\"\n]\n

This dependency will be installed the next time you spawn a shell or run a command. For example:

$ hatch run cowsay -t \"Hello, world!\"\nSyncing dependencies\n  _____________\n| Hello, world! |\n  =============\n             \\\n              \\\n                ^__^\n                (oo)\\_______\n                (__)\\       )\\/\\\n                    ||----w |\n                    ||     ||\n

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.envs.docs]\ndependencies = [\n  \"mkdocs\"\n]\n[tool.hatch.envs.docs.scripts]\nbuild = \"mkdocs build --clean --strict\"\nserve = \"mkdocs serve --dev-addr localhost:8000\"\n

When the version is not statically set, configuration is defined in the tool.hatch.version table. The source option determines the source to use for retrieving and updating the version. The regex source is used by default.

The regex source requires an option path that represents a relative path to a file containing the project's version:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.version]\npath = \"src/hatch_demo/__about__.py\"\n
[version]\npath = \"src/hatch_demo/__about__.py\"\n

The default pattern looks for a variable named __version__ or VERSION that is set to a string containing the version, optionally prefixed with the lowercase letter v.

If this doesn't reflect how you store the version, you can define a different regular expression using the pattern option:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.version]\npath = \"pkg/__init__.py\"\npattern = \"BUILD = 'b(?P<version>[^']+)'\"\n
[version]\npath = \"pkg/__init__.py\"\npattern = \"BUILD = 'b(?P<version>[^']+)'\"\n

Rather than setting the version explicitly, you can select the name of a segment used to increment the version:

$ hatch version minor\nOld: 0.1.0\nNew: 0.2.0\n

You can chain multiple segment updates with a comma. For example, if you wanted to release a preview of your project's first major version, you could do:

Originally, the environment interface method for providing builder sub-environments was intended to be used in conjunction with some cleanup logic in order to provide a fresh setup every time. However, this is unnecessary in practice because build dependencies rarely change.

Without caching, repeat build environment use is slow which affects the following scenarios:

Now a new environment interface method build_environment_exists is used by Hatch to determine whether or not it has already been created, for implementations that have a caching mechanism.

The virtual environment type now uses this method to cache build environments.

"},{"location":"blog/2022/10/08/hatch-v160/#project-metadata","title":"Project metadata","text":"

Dynamically defined metadata is now supported everywhere, thanks to the new caching of virtual build environments.

A project metadata command is introduced that displays the fully resolved metadata. The output format is JSON unless a field is specified as an argument.

For example, if you checkout a project that is built by Hatch, like FastAPI, and run:

hatch project metadata readme\n

only the readme text will be displayed. If the content is in Markdown, then Rich will render it directly in your terminal:

"},{"location":"blog/2022/10/08/hatch-v160/#virtual-environment-location","title":"Virtual environment location","text":"

The virtual environment type now uses a flat layout for storage in the configured virtual environment directory if the directory resides somewhere within the project root or if it is set to a .virtualenvs directory within the user's home directory.

For example, if you define the following Hatch configuration:

config.toml
[dirs.env]\nvirtual = \".hatch\"\n

and the following matrix:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[[tool.hatch.envs.test.matrix]]\npython = [\"3.7\", \"3.8\", \"3.9\", \"3.10\", \"3.11\"]\n
[[envs.test.matrix]]\npython = [\"3.7\", \"3.8\", \"3.9\", \"3.10\", \"3.11\"]\n

then locating environments with the following command:

hatch env find test\n

will show that the general directory structure is:

.hatch\n\u251c\u2500\u2500 test.py3.7\n\u251c\u2500\u2500 test.py3.8\n\u251c\u2500\u2500 test.py3.9\n\u251c\u2500\u2500 test.py3.10\n\u2514\u2500\u2500 test.py3.11\n

This flat structure is required for detection of virtual environments by tools like Visual Studio Code and PyCharm.

Additionally, the virtual environment type now supports a path option to specify an explicit path that all inherited environments will share, such as the common .venv.

Hatch v1.8.0 brings Python distribution management, static analysis and formatting backed by Ruff, and binaries for every platform.

"},{"location":"blog/2023/12/11/hatch-v180/#installation-made-easy","title":"Installation made easy","text":"

One thing that has been a perpetual problem for Hatch and other Python applications is that Python itself is a dependency. You, and more importantly your users, need to in some way get Python before your software can even be used. The recommended way to go about that is platform-dependent and even differs based on your target audience. I viewed this as a central UX problem for Hatch and so severe that I took a bit of a hiatus to solve it.

Luckily, I have to my satisfaction solved this problem in the form of PyApp. It is a runtime installer for Python projects written in Rust. Apps are distributed as standalone executables as users have come to expect and bootstrapping occurs upon the first invocation. Here is an example of what you would see the first time you run a binary from this release:

Now that we have binaries, creating installers for different platforms becomes trivial. Starting with this release not only are binaries available for every platform but also we have installers for Windows and macOS. The installer for macOS is signed using a certificate from the same account used to sign the official distributions from https://www.python.org, so users will not get any security pop-ups. Shout out to @ewdurbin for their extreme generosity in setting up multiple certificates in their free time!

These installers and binaries are now the recommended way to install and update Hatch. These binaries have built-in management so you can update to the latest version by running hatch self update.

Windows signing

In future we will sign the installers for Windows but I did not have time to look into how that works. macOS signing took way longer than I anticipated

"},{"location":"blog/2023/12/11/hatch-v180/#python-management","title":"Python management","text":"

For a long time I and other users have desired that Hatch gain the ability to manage Python distributions. In my mind this was always blocked on a better installation experience because there was sort of a chicken-or-egg problem where you want a Python manager but you first need Python. No longer is that the case!

The new python command group allows for easy installation of various distributions to arbitrary locations which are then added to your PATH by default. Hatch supports CPython and PyPy distributions:

"},{"location":"blog/2023/12/11/hatch-v180/#virtual-environment-python-resolution","title":"Virtual environment Python resolution","text":"

The virtual environment type is now far more intelligent when resolving the parent distribution to use and guarantees that, when no specific version is requested, the resolved distribution will always be compatible with the project.

Additionally, when a requested version cannot be found on PATH it will automatically be downloaded and managed internally.

"},{"location":"blog/2023/12/11/hatch-v180/#static-analysis","title":"Static analysis","text":"

There is a new fmt command, backed entirely by Ruff, that checks and fixes your code for formatting and linting issues.

Starting with this release, Hatch maintains default settings that are guaranteed to be up-to-date and represent best practices for programming in modern Python. The idea is to provide defaults that are so broadly applicable that the majority of users will maintain little if any of their own overrides.

The default behavior is internal management of settings to provide an OOTB experience that works. It is recommended however that you persist the default config file in version control so that other tools like IDEs can utilize your full configuration.

Since Ruff is now provided as a built-in feature, new project templates no longer have such configuration and are much less verbose.

"},{"location":"blog/2023/12/11/hatch-v180/#build-improvements","title":"Build improvements","text":"

Building projects that do not use Hatchling as a backend is now supported and such builds are managed with the standard build tool.

The bridge between Hatch and the Hatchling CLI has been removed. Previously, the builder would send serialized messages to Hatch that would contain the desired content and style for each line of output. This was done in an effort to allow builder and build hook plugins to output pretty messages without actually requiring a dependency like Rich. A problem that arises with this is that builders that invoke subprocesses will not display ANSI codes as one might expect and will lose out on the interactive experience of such invocations, like the built-in app builder plugin calling cargo build. So now everything is simpler at the expense of no colored output without manual logic, or adding a dependency if you're a third-party plugin.

"},{"location":"blog/2023/12/11/hatch-v180/#faster-environment-usage","title":"Faster environment usage","text":"

Spawning a shell or running commands within environments always first checks that your project's dependencies are satisfied and if not synchronizes the environment with what is defined. Previously, this had the potential to be quite slow for projects that have many dependencies.

Now the set of dependency definitions is hashed and no check is performed if the hash is the same as before, significantly speeding up environment usage in most cases.

A new app build target is now stable that allows for the building of standalone binaries for projects. This is what Hatch itself uses for its binaries.

A new page has been introduced that discusses the value proposition of Hatch and Hatchling in comparison to alternatives. Currently, it only addresses a few features but in future this page will become more comprehensive.

"},{"location":"blog/2023/12/11/hatch-v180/#future","title":"Future","text":"

Upcoming features include a test command, commands to manage dependencies, and workspaces functionality similar to Cargo that will make managing monorepos far easier.

Next year there will be two large efforts that you should expect to see:

  1. A significant amount of my free time (and some at work) will be devoted to introducing lock file functionality in Hatch and trying to get whatever that happens to be standardized.

    I met with @brettcannon about his thoughts post-PEP 665 and about mousebender. I also met with the prefix.dev team about rip and was fortunate enough to be shown a demo before its official announcement.

    At the moment, the two options I see are to either go all in and contribute to mousebender or rely on the Prefix folks and use rip. The latter has the benefit of potentially supporting Conda as a side effect with the downside of being quite new with the spec firmly out of our control. The former has the benefit of being able to easily gain institutional support from the Python packaging team and each of our employers with the downside being a significant amount of work needing to be done.

  2. When @henryiii is able to get some free time away from teaching I plan to work with him once again and push very hard for the Python build ecosystem to adopt the extensionlib approach.

    I am of the opinion that the Python community has not fully completed the expressed outcome of PEP 517 in that build backends are still (for the most part) reliant on setuptools for building non-Python code bases.

    Basically, there are components that interact with compilers to produce extension modules and components that pack files into an archive which we call a build backend. These are two distinct pieces of functionality and my view is that there should be an API that allows backends to consume extension module builders to find out where things got created and where they should be shipped inside archives.

    In this hypothetical future any build backend would be able to trigger the building of extension modules based on user configuration.

Hatch v1.9.0 brings improvements to static analysis and important bug fixes.

"},{"location":"blog/2023/12/18/hatch-v190/#static-analysis","title":"Static analysis","text":"

The default version of Ruff has been increased to v0.1.8. This release brings formatting capabilities to docstrings and Hatch enables this by default with line length set to 80. This length was chosen as the default because it plays nicely with the rendering of the most popular themes for Python documentation, such as Material for MkDocs and Furo.

Additionally, it is now possible for projects to pin to specific versions of Ruff for upgrading at a later time:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.envs.hatch-static-analysis]\ndependencies = [\"ruff==X.Y.Z\"]\n
[envs.hatch-static-analysis]\ndependencies = [\"ruff==X.Y.Z\"]\n

Build targets are defined as sections within tool.hatch.build.targets:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.<TARGET_NAME>]\n

Tip

Although not recommended, you may define global configuration in the tool.hatch.build table. Keys may then be overridden by target config.

"},{"location":"config/build/#build-system","title":"Build system","text":"

To be compatible with the broader Python packaging ecosystem, you must define the build system as follows:

pyproject.toml
[build-system]\nrequires = [\"hatchling\"]\nbuild-backend = \"hatchling.build\"\n

Hatchling is a standards-compliant1 build backend and is a dependency of Hatch itself.

"},{"location":"config/build/#file-selection","title":"File selection","text":""},{"location":"config/build/#vcs","title":"VCS","text":"

By default, Hatch will respect the first .gitignore or .hgignore file found in your project's root directory or parent directories. Set ignore-vcs to true to disable this behavior:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.sdist]\nignore-vcs = true\n
[build.targets.sdist]\nignore-vcs = true\n

Note

For .hgignore files only glob syntax is supported.

"},{"location":"config/build/#patterns","title":"Patterns","text":"

You can set the include and exclude options to select exactly which files will be shipped in each build, with exclude taking precedence. Every entry represents a Git-style glob pattern.

For example, the following configuration:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.sdist]\ninclude = [\n  \"pkg/*.py\",\n  \"/tests\",\n]\nexclude = [\n  \"*.json\",\n  \"pkg/_compat.py\",\n]\n
[build.targets.sdist]\ninclude = [\n  \"pkg/*.py\",\n  \"/tests\",\n]\nexclude = [\n  \"*.json\",\n  \"pkg/_compat.py\",\n]\n

will exclude every file with a .json extension, and will include everything under a tests directory located at the root and every file with a .py extension that is directly under a pkg directory located at the root except for _compat.py.

"},{"location":"config/build/#artifacts","title":"Artifacts","text":"

If you want to include files that are ignored by your VCS, such as those that might be created by build hooks, you can use the artifacts option. This option is semantically equivalent to include.

Note that artifacts are not affected by the exclude option. Artifacts can be excluded by using more explicit paths or by using the ! negation operator. When using the ! operator, the negated pattern(s) must come after the more generic ones.

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel]\nartifacts = [\n  \"*.so\",\n  \"*.dll\",\n  \"!/foo/*.so\",\n]\n
[build.targets.wheel]\nartifacts = [\n  \"*.so\",\n  \"*.dll\",\n  \"!/foo/*.so\",\n]\n

You can use the only-include option to prevent directory traversal starting at the project root and only select specific relative paths to directories or files. Using this option ignores any defined include patterns.

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.sdist]\nonly-include = [\"pkg\", \"tests/unit\"]\n
[build.targets.sdist]\nonly-include = [\"pkg\", \"tests/unit\"]\n
"},{"location":"config/build/#packages","title":"Packages","text":"

The packages option is semantically equivalent to only-include (which takes precedence) except that the shipped path will be collapsed to only include the final component.

So for example, if you want to ship a package foo that is stored in a directory src you would do:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel]\npackages = [\"src/foo\"]\n
[build.targets.wheel]\npackages = [\"src/foo\"]\n
"},{"location":"config/build/#forced-inclusion","title":"Forced inclusion","text":"

The force-include option allows you to select specific files or directories from anywhere on the file system that should be included and map them to the desired relative distribution path.

For example, if there was a directory alongside the project root named artifacts containing a file named lib.so and a file named lib.h in your home directory, you could ship both files in a pkg directory with the following configuration:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel.force-include]\n\"../artifacts\" = \"pkg\"\n\"~/lib.h\" = \"pkg/lib.h\"\n
[build.targets.wheel.force-include]\n\"../artifacts\" = \"pkg\"\n\"~/lib.h\" = \"pkg/lib.h\"\n

Note

Warning

Files included using this option will overwrite any file path that was already included by other file selection options.

"},{"location":"config/build/#default-file-selection","title":"Default file selection","text":"

If no file selection options are provided, then what gets included is determined by each build target.

"},{"location":"config/build/#excluding-files-outside-packages","title":"Excluding files outside packages","text":"

If you want to exclude non-artifact files that do not reside within a Python package, set only-packages to true:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel]\nonly-packages = true\n
[build.targets.wheel]\nonly-packages = true\n
"},{"location":"config/build/#rewriting-paths","title":"Rewriting paths","text":"

You can rewrite relative paths to directories with the sources option. For example, the following configuration:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel.sources]\n\"src/foo\" = \"bar\"\n
[build.targets.wheel.sources]\n\"src/foo\" = \"bar\"\n

would distribute the file src/foo/file.ext as bar/file.ext.

If you want to remove path prefixes entirely, rather than setting each to an empty string, you can define sources as an array:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel]\nsources = [\"src\"]\n
[build.targets.wheel]\nsources = [\"src\"]\n

If you want to add a prefix to paths, you can use an empty string. For example, the following configuration:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel.sources]\n\"\" = \"foo\"\n
[build.targets.wheel.sources]\n\"\" = \"foo\"\n

would distribute the file bar/file.ext as foo/bar/file.ext.

The packages option itself relies on sources. Defining packages = [\"src/foo\"] for the wheel target is equivalent to the following:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel]\nonly-include = [\"src/foo\"]\nsources = [\"src\"]\n
[build.targets.wheel]\nonly-include = [\"src/foo\"]\nsources = [\"src\"]\n

Warning

This may result in not shipping desired files. For example, if you want to include the file a/b/c.txt but your VCS ignores a/b, the file c.txt will not be seen because its parent directory will not be entered. In such cases you can use the force-include option.

Project dependencies are defined with PEP 508 strings using optional PEP 440 version specifiers.

"},{"location":"config/dependency/#version-specifiers","title":"Version specifiers","text":"

A version specifier consists of a series of version clauses, separated by commas. For example:

pyproject.toml
[project]\n...\ndependencies = [\n  \"cryptography\",\n  \"click>=7, <9, != 8.0.0\",\n  \"python-dateutil==2.8.*\",\n  \"numpy~=1.21.4\",\n]\n

A version matching clause includes the version matching operator == and a version identifier.

By default, the version matching operator is based on a strict equality comparison: the specified version must be exactly the same as the requested version.

Clause Allowed versions ==1 1.0.0 ==1.2 1.2.0

Prefix matching may be requested instead of strict comparison, by appending a trailing .* to the version identifier in the version matching clause. This means that additional trailing segments will be ignored when determining whether or not a version identifier matches the clause.

Clause Allowed versions ==1.* >=1.0.0, <2.0.0 ==1.2.* >=1.2.0, <1.3.0"},{"location":"config/dependency/#compatible-release","title":"Compatible release","text":"

A compatible release clause consists of the compatible release operator ~= and a version identifier. It matches any candidate version that is expected to be compatible with the specified version.

For a given release identifier V.N, the compatible release clause is approximately equivalent to the following pair of comparison clauses:

>= V.N, == V.*\n

This operator cannot be used with a single segment version number such as ~=1.

Clause Allowed versions ~=1.2 >=1.2.0, <2.0.0 ~=1.2.3 >=1.2.3, <1.3.0"},{"location":"config/dependency/#version-exclusion","title":"Version exclusion","text":"

A version exclusion clause includes the version exclusion operator != and a version identifier.

The allowed version identifiers and comparison semantics are the same as those of the Version matching operator, except that the sense of any match is inverted.

"},{"location":"config/dependency/#ordered-comparison","title":"Ordered comparison","text":"

Inclusive comparisons allow for the version identifier part of clauses whereas exclusive comparisons do not. For example, >=1.2 allows for version 1.2.0 while >1.2 does not.

Unlike the inclusive ordered comparisons <= and >=, the exclusive ordered comparisons < and > specifically exclude pre-releases, post-releases, and local versions of the specified version.

"},{"location":"config/dependency/#arbitrary-equality","title":"Arbitrary equality","text":"

Though heavily discouraged, arbitrary equality comparisons allow for simple string matching without any version semantics, for example ===foobar.

"},{"location":"config/dependency/#environment-markers","title":"Environment markers","text":"

Environment markers allow for dependencies to only be installed when certain conditions are met.

For example, if you need to install the latest version of cryptography that is available for a given Python major version you could define the following:

cryptography==3.3.2; python_version < \"3\"\ncryptography>=35.0; python_version > \"3\"\n

Alternatively, if you only need it on Python 3 when running on Windows you could do:

cryptography; python_version ~= \"3.0\" and platform_system == \"Windows\"\n

The available environment markers are as follows.

Marker Python equivalent Examples os_name import osos.name sys_platform import syssys.platform platform_machine import platformplatform.machine() platform_python_implementation import platformplatform.python_implementation() platform_release import platformplatform.release() platform_system import platformplatform.system() platform_version import platformplatform.version() python_version import platform'.'.join(platform.python_version_tuple()[:2]) python_full_version import platformplatform.python_version() implementation_name import syssys.implementation.name implementation_version See here "},{"location":"config/dependency/#features","title":"Features","text":"

foo[cli,crypto]==1.*\n

Note that the features come immediately after the package name, before any version specifiers.

Feature groups can self-referentially extend others. For example, for a project called awesome-project, the dev feature group in the following pyproject.toml file would select everything in the crypto feature group, plus black:

Instead of using normal version specifiers and fetching packages from an index like PyPI, you can define exact sources using direct references with an explicit URI.

Direct references are usually not meant to be used for dependencies of a published project but rather are used for defining dependencies for an environment.

The <HOST> is only used on Windows systems, where it can refer to a network share. If omitted it is assumed to be localhost and the third slash must still be present.

The <PATH> can refer to a source archive, a wheel, or a directory containing a Python package.

When defining your configuration, be sure to use options that are prefixed by extend- such as extend-select, for example:

Note

When not persisting config, there is no need to explicitly extend the defaults as Hatch automatically handles that.

"},{"location":"config/static-analysis/#persistent-config","title":"Persistent config","text":"

If you want to store the default configuration in the project, set an explicit path like so:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.envs.hatch-static-analysis]\nconfig-path = \"ruff_defaults.toml\"\n
[envs.hatch-static-analysis]\nconfig-path = \"ruff_defaults.toml\"\n

Then instruct Ruff to consider your configuration as an extension of the default file:

pyproject.toml ruff.toml
[tool.ruff]\nextend = \"ruff_defaults.toml\"\n
extend = \"ruff_defaults.toml\"\n

Anytime you wish to update the defaults (such as when upgrading Hatch), you must run the fmt command once with the --sync flag e.g.:

hatch fmt --check --sync\n

Tip

This is the recommended approach since it allows other tools like IDEs to use the default configuration.

All environments support the following extra context formatting fields:

Field Description env_name The name of the environment env_type The type of environment matrix Its modifier selects the value of that matrix variable. If the environment is not part of a matrix or was not generated with the variable, you must specify a default value as an additional modifier e.g. {matrix:version:v1.0.0}. verbosity The integer verbosity value of Hatch. A flag modifier is supported that will render the value as a CLI flag e.g. -2 becomes -qq, 1 becomes -v, and 0 becomes an empty string. An additional flag integer modifier may be used to adjust the verbosity level. For example, if you wanted to make a command quiet by default, you could use {verbosity:flag:-1} within the command. args For executed commands only, any extra command line arguments with an optional default modifier if none were provided"},{"location":"config/environment/advanced/#matrix","title":"Matrix","text":"

Environments can define a series of matrices with the matrix option:

Doing so will result in the product of each variable combination being its own environment.

"},{"location":"config/environment/advanced/#naming","title":"Naming","text":"

The name of the generated environments will be the variable values of each combination separated by hyphens, altogether prefixed by <ENV_NAME>.. For example, the following configuration:

[[envs.test.matrix]]\nversion = [\"42\"]\nfeature = [\"foo\", \"bar\"]\n

test.42-foo\ntest.42-bar\n

The exceptions to this format are described below.

"},{"location":"config/environment/advanced/#python-variables","title":"Python variables","text":"

If the variables py or python are specified, then they will rank first in the product result and will be prefixed by py if the value is not. For example, the following configuration:

Note

The value of this variable sets the Python version.

"},{"location":"config/environment/advanced/#name-formatting","title":"Name formatting","text":"

You can set the matrix-name-format option to modify how each variable part is formatted which recognizes the placeholders {variable} and {value}. For example, the following configuration:

By default this option is set to {value}.

"},{"location":"config/environment/advanced/#default-environment","title":"Default environment","text":"

If the default environment defines matrices, then the generated names will not be prefixed by the environment name. This can be useful for projects that only need a single series of matrices without any standalone environments.

A common use case is standalone environments that do not require inheritance nor the installation of the project, such as for linting or sometimes building documentation. Enabling the detached option will make the environment self-referential and will skip project installation:

the run script would be expanded to:

pytest --cov-config=pyproject.toml --cov=pkg --cov=tests --no-cov\n

Scripts can also be defined as an array of strings.

Similar to make, you can ignore the exit code of commands that start with - (a hyphen). For example, the script error defined by the following configuration would halt after the second command with 3 as the exit code:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.envs.test.scripts]\nerror = [\n  \"- exit 1\",\n  \"exit 3\",\n  \"exit 0\",\n]\n

"},{"location":"how-to/environment/package-indices/","title":"Package indices","text":"

Most Hatch environment types, like the default virtual, simply use pip to install dependencies. Therefore, you can use the standard environment variables that influence pip's behavior to choose where to search for packages.

Here's an example of setting up the default environment to look at 2 private indices (using context formatting for authentication) before finally falling back to PyPI:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.envs.default.env-vars]\nPIP_INDEX_URL = \"https://token:{env:GITLAB_API_TOKEN}@gitlab.com/api/v4/groups/<group1_path>/-/packages/pypi/simple/\"\nPIP_EXTRA_INDEX_URL = \"https://token:{env:GITLAB_API_TOKEN}@gitlab.com/api/v4/groups/<group2_path>/-/packages/pypi/simple/ https://pypi.org/simple/\"\n
[envs.default.env-vars]\nPIP_INDEX_URL = \"https://token:{env:GITLAB_API_TOKEN}@gitlab.com/api/v4/groups/<group1_path>/-/packages/pypi/simple/\"\nPIP_EXTRA_INDEX_URL = \"https://token:{env:GITLAB_API_TOKEN}@gitlab.com/api/v4/groups/<group2_path>/-/packages/pypi/simple/ https://pypi.org/simple/\"\n
"},{"location":"how-to/plugins/testing-builds/","title":"Testing builds","text":"

For testing Hatchling plugins, you'll usually want to generate a project to execute builds as a real user would. For example, as a minimal pytest fixture:

from pathlib import Path\n\nimport pytest\n\n\n@pytest.fixture\ndef new_project(tmp_path):\n    project_dir = tmp_path / 'my-app'\n    project_dir.mkdir()\n\n    project_file = project_dir / 'pyproject.toml'\n    project_file.write_text(\n        f\"\"\"\\\n[build-system]\nrequires = [\"hatchling\", \"hatch-plugin-name @ {Path.cwd().as_uri()}\"]\nbuild-backend = \"hatchling.build\"\n\n[project]\nname = \"my-app\"\nversion = \"0.1.0\"\n\"\"\",\n        encoding='utf-8',\n    )\n    ...\n

The issue with this is that after the first test session, the project will be forever cached by pip based on the file path. Therefore, subsequent tests runs will never use updated code.

To invalidate the cache, copy your code to a new path for every test session:

import shutil\nfrom pathlib import Path\nfrom tempfile import TemporaryDirectory\n\nimport pytest\n\n\n@pytest.fixture(scope='session')\ndef plugin_dir():\n    with TemporaryDirectory() as d:\n        directory = Path(d, 'plugin')\n        shutil.copytree(\n            Path.cwd(), directory, ignore=shutil.ignore_patterns('.git')\n        )\n\n        yield directory.resolve()\n\n\n@pytest.fixture\ndef new_project(tmp_path, plugin_dir):\n    project_dir = tmp_path / 'my-app'\n    project_dir.mkdir()\n\n    project_file = project_dir / 'pyproject.toml'\n    project_file.write_text(\n        f\"\"\"\\\n[build-system]\nrequires = [\"hatchling\", \"hatch-plugin-name @ {plugin_dir.as_uri()}\"]\nbuild-backend = \"hatchling.build\"\n\n[project]\nname = \"my-app\"\nversion = \"0.1.0\"\n\"\"\",\n        encoding='utf-8',\n    )\n    ...\n

Note

This example chooses to ignore copying .git for performance reasons. You may want to ignore more patterns, or copy only specific paths like this plugin does.

Q: What is the risk of lock-in?

A: Not much! Other than the plugin system, everything uses Python's established standards by default. Project metadata is based entirely on the standard, the build system is compatible with PEP 517/PEP 660, versioning uses the scheme specified by PEP 440, dependencies are defined with PEP 508 strings, and environments use virtualenv.

Q: Must one use all features?

A: No, all features are optional! You can use just the build system, publish wheels and source distributions that were built by other tools, only use the environment management, etc.

"},{"location":"meta/faq/#libraries-vs-applications","title":"Libraries vs applications","text":"

Q: Are workflows for both libraries and applications supported?

A: Yes, mostly! Applications can utilize environment management just like libraries, and plugins can be used to build projects in arbitrary formats or publish artifacts to arbitrary destinations.

The only caveat is that currently there is no support for re-creating an environment given a set of dependencies in a reproducible manner. Although a standard lock file format may be far off since [PEP 665][] was rejected, resolving capabilities are coming to pip. When that is stabilized, Hatch will add locking functionality and dedicated documentation for managing applications.

Hatch utilizes pluggy for its plugin functionality.

"},{"location":"plugins/about/#overview","title":"Overview","text":"

All plugins provide registration hooks that return one or more classes that inherit from a particular type interface.

Each registration hook must be decorated by Hatch's hook marker. For example, if you wanted to create a new kind of environment you could do:

hooks.py
from hatchling.plugin import hookimpl\n\nfrom .plugin import SpecialEnvironment\n\n\n@hookimpl\ndef hatch_register_environment():\n    return SpecialEnvironment\n

The hooks can return a single class or a list of classes.

Every class must define an attribute called PLUGIN_NAME that users will select when they wish to use the plugin. So in the example above, the class might be defined like:

plugin.py
...\nclass SpecialEnvironment(...):\n    PLUGIN_NAME = 'special'\n    ...\n

Build hooks run for every selected version of build targets.

The initialization stage occurs immediately before each build and the finalization stage occurs immediately after. Each stage has the opportunity to view or modify build data.

"},{"location":"plugins/build-hook/reference/#build-data","title":"Build data","text":"

Build data is a simple mapping whose contents can influence the behavior of builds. Which fields exist and are recognized depends on each build target.

The following fields are always present and recognized by the build system itself:

Field Type Description artifacts list[str] This is a list of extra artifact patterns and should generally only be appended to force_include dict[str, str] This is a mapping of extra forced inclusion paths, with this mapping taking precedence in case of conflicts build_hooks tuple[str, ...] This is an immutable sequence of the names of the configured build hooks and matches the order in which they run

Attention

While user-facing TOML options are hyphenated, build data fields should be named with underscores to allow plugins to use them as valid Python identifiers.

"},{"location":"plugins/build-hook/reference/#notes","title":"Notes","text":"

In some cases it may be necessary to use force_include rather than artifacts. For example, say that you want to install a lib.so directly at the root of site-packages and a project defines a package src/foo. If you create src/lib.so, there will never be a match because the directory traversal starts at src/foo rather than src. In that case you must do either:

build_data['force_include']['src/lib.so'] = 'src/lib.so'\n

or

build_data['force_include']['/absolute/path/to/src/lib.so'] = 'src/lib.so'\n

The location of environments is determined in the following heuristic order:

  1. The path option
  2. A directory named after the environment within the configured virtual environment directory if the directory resides somewhere within the project root or if it is set to a .virtualenvs directory within the user's home directory
  3. Otherwise, environments are stored within the configured virtual environment directory in a deeply nested structure in order to support multiple projects

Additionally, when the path option is not used, the name of the directory for the default environment will be the normalized project name to provide a more meaningful default shell prompt.

"},{"location":"plugins/environment/virtual/#python-resolution","title":"Python resolution","text":"

Virtual environments necessarily require a parent installation of Python. The following rules determine how the parent is resolved.

The Python choice is determined by the python option followed by the HATCH_PYTHON environment variable. If the choice is via the environment variable, then resolution stops and that path is used unconditionally.

The resolvers will be based on the python-sources option and all resolved interpreters will ensure compatibility with the project's defined Python support.

If a Python version has been chosen then each resolver will try to find an interpreter that satisfies that version.

If no version has been chosen, then each resolver will try to find a version that matches the version of Python that Hatch is currently running on. If not found then each resolver will try to find the highest compatible version.

Note

Some external Python paths are considered unstable and are ignored during resolution. For example, if Hatch is installed via Homebrew then sys.executable will be ignored because the interpreter could change or be removed at any time.

Note

When resolution finds a match using an internally managed distribution and an update is available, the latest distribution will automatically be downloaded before environment creation.

If you need to set linker environment variables like those starting with DYLD_ or LD_, any executable secured by System Integrity Protection that is invoked when running commands will not see those environment variable modifications as macOS strips those.

Hatch interprets such commands as shell commands but deliberately ignores such paths to protected shells. This workaround suffices for the majority of use cases but there are 2 situations in which it may not:

  1. There are no unprotected sh, bash, zsh, nor fish executables found along PATH.
  2. The desired executable is a project's script, and the location of environments contains spaces or is longer than 1241 characters. In this case pip and other installers will create such an entry point with a shebang pointing to /bin/sh (which is protected) to avoid shebang limitations. Rather than changing the location, you could invoke the script as e.g. python -m pytest (if the project supports that method of invocation by shipping a __main__.py).

Builds are configured using the tool.hatch.build table. Every target is defined by a section within tool.hatch.build.targets, for example:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.sdist]\nexclude = [\n  \"/.github\",\n  \"/docs\",\n]\n\n[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel]\npackages = [\"src/foo\"]\n

"},{"location":"build/#building","title":"Building","text":"

Invoking the build command without any arguments will build the sdist and wheel targets:

$ hatch build\n[sdist]\ndist/hatch_demo-1rc0.tar.gz\n\n[wheel]\ndist/hatch_demo-1rc0-py3-none-any.whl\n

To only build specific targets, use the -t/--target option:

$ hatch build -t wheel\n[wheel]\ndist/hatch_demo-1rc0-py3-none-any.whl\n

If the target supports multiple versions, you can specify the exact versions to build by appending a colon followed by the desired versions separated by commas:

$ hatch -v build -t wheel:standard\n[wheel]\nBuilding `wheel` version `standard`\ndist/hatch_demo-1rc0-py3-none-any.whl\n
"},{"location":"build/#packaging-ecosystem","title":"Packaging ecosystem","text":"

Hatch complies with modern Python packaging specs and therefore your projects can be used by other tools with Hatch serving as just the build backend.

So you could use tox as an alternative to Hatch's environment management, or cibuildwheel to distribute packages for every platform, and they both will transparently use Hatch without any extra modification.

"},{"location":"environment/","title":"Environments","text":"

Environments are designed to allow for isolated workspaces for testing, building documentation, or anything else projects need.

Unless an environment is chosen explicitly, Hatch will use the default environment.

"},{"location":"environment/#creation","title":"Creation","text":"

You can create environments by using the env create command. Let's enter the directory of the project we created in the setup phase:

$ hatch env create\nCreating environment: default\nInstalling project in development mode\nSyncing dependencies\n

Tip

You never need to manually create environments as spawning a shell or running commands within one will automatically trigger creation.

"},{"location":"environment/#entering-environments","title":"Entering environments","text":"

You can spawn a shell within an environment by using the shell command.

$ hatch shell\n(hatch-demo) $\n

Now confirm the project has been installed:

(hatch-demo) $ pip show hatch-demo\nName: hatch-demo\nVersion: 0.0.1\n...\n

Finally, see where your environment's Python is located:

(hatch-demo) $ python -c \"import sys;print(sys.executable)\"\n...\n

You can type exit to leave the environment.

"},{"location":"environment/#command-execution","title":"Command execution","text":"

The run command allows you to execute commands in an environment as if you had already entered it. For example, running the following command will output the same path as before:

hatch run python -c \"import sys;print(sys.executable)\"\n
"},{"location":"environment/#scripts","title":"Scripts","text":"

You can also run any scripts that have been defined.

You'll notice that in the pyproject.toml file there are already scripts defined in the default environment. Try running the test command, which invokes pytest with some default arguments:

hatch run test\n

All additional arguments are passed through to that script, so for example if you wanted to see the version of pytest and which plugins are installed you could do:

hatch run test -VV\n
"},{"location":"environment/#dependencies","title":"Dependencies","text":"

Hatch ensures that environments are always compatible with the currently defined project dependencies (if installed and in dev mode) and environment dependencies.

To add cowsay as a dependency, open pyproject.toml and add it to the dependencies array:

pyproject.toml
[project]\n...\ndependencies = [\n  \"cowsay\"\n]\n

This dependency will be installed the next time you spawn a shell or run a command. For example:

$ hatch run cowsay -t \"Hello, world!\"\nSyncing dependencies\n  _____________\n| Hello, world! |\n  =============\n             \\\n              \\\n                ^__^\n                (oo)\\_______\n                (__)\\       )\\/\\\n                    ||----w |\n                    ||     ||\n

Note

The Syncing dependencies status will display temporarily when Hatch updates environments in response to any dependency changes that you make.

"},{"location":"environment/#selection","title":"Selection","text":"

You can select which environment to enter or run commands in by using the -e/--env root option or by setting the HATCH_ENV environment variable.

The run command allows for more explicit selection by prepending <ENV_NAME>: to commands. For example, if you had the following configuration:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.envs.docs]\ndependencies = [\n  \"mkdocs\"\n]\n[tool.hatch.envs.docs.scripts]\nbuild = \"mkdocs build --clean --strict\"\nserve = \"mkdocs serve --dev-addr localhost:8000\"\n
[envs.docs]\ndependencies = [\n  \"mkdocs\"\n]\n[envs.docs.scripts]\nbuild = \"mkdocs build --clean --strict\"\nserve = \"mkdocs serve --dev-addr localhost:8000\"\n

you could then serve your documentation by running:

hatch run docs:serve\n

Tip

If you've already entered an environment, commands will target it by default.

"},{"location":"environment/#matrix","title":"Matrix","text":"

Every environment can define its own set of matrices:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.envs.test]\ndependencies = [\n  \"pytest\"\n]\n\n[[tool.hatch.envs.test.matrix]]\npython = [\"2.7\", \"3.8\"]\nversion = [\"42\", \"3.14\"]\n\n[[tool.hatch.envs.test.matrix]]\npython = [\"3.8\", \"3.9\"]\nversion = [\"9000\"]\nfeatures = [\"foo\", \"bar\"]\n

When the version is not statically set, configuration is defined in the tool.hatch.version table. The source option determines the source to use for retrieving and updating the version. The regex source is used by default.

The regex source requires an option path that represents a relative path to a file containing the project's version:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.version]\npath = \"src/hatch_demo/__about__.py\"\n
[version]\npath = \"src/hatch_demo/__about__.py\"\n

The default pattern looks for a variable named __version__ or VERSION that is set to a string containing the version, optionally prefixed with the lowercase letter v.

If this doesn't reflect how you store the version, you can define a different regular expression using the pattern option:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.version]\npath = \"pkg/__init__.py\"\npattern = \"BUILD = 'b(?P<version>[^']+)'\"\n
[version]\npath = \"pkg/__init__.py\"\npattern = \"BUILD = 'b(?P<version>[^']+)'\"\n

The scheme option determines the scheme to use for parsing both the existing and new versions. The standard scheme is used by default, which is based on PEP 440.

Rather than setting the version explicitly, you can select the name of a segment used to increment the version:

$ hatch version minor\nOld: 0.1.0\nNew: 0.2.0\n

You can chain multiple segment updates with a comma. For example, if you wanted to release a preview of your project's first major version, you could do:

"},{"location":"blog/2022/10/08/hatch-v160/#build-environments","title":"Build environments","text":"

Originally, the environment interface method for providing builder sub-environments was intended to be used in conjunction with some cleanup logic in order to provide a fresh setup every time. However, this is unnecessary in practice because build dependencies rarely change.

Without caching, repeat build environment use is slow which affects the following scenarios:

Now a new environment interface method build_environment_exists is used by Hatch to determine whether or not it has already been created, for implementations that have a caching mechanism.

The virtual environment type now uses this method to cache build environments.

"},{"location":"blog/2022/10/08/hatch-v160/#project-metadata","title":"Project metadata","text":"

Dynamically defined metadata is now supported everywhere, thanks to the new caching of virtual build environments.

A project metadata command is introduced that displays the fully resolved metadata. The output format is JSON unless a field is specified as an argument.

For example, if you checkout a project that is built by Hatch, like FastAPI, and run:

hatch project metadata readme\n

only the readme text will be displayed. If the content is in Markdown, then Rich will render it directly in your terminal:

"},{"location":"blog/2022/10/08/hatch-v160/#virtual-environment-location","title":"Virtual environment location","text":"

The virtual environment type now uses a flat layout for storage in the configured virtual environment directory if the directory resides somewhere within the project root or if it is set to a .virtualenvs directory within the user's home directory.

For example, if you define the following Hatch configuration:

config.toml
[dirs.env]\nvirtual = \".hatch\"\n

and the following matrix:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[[tool.hatch.envs.test.matrix]]\npython = [\"3.7\", \"3.8\", \"3.9\", \"3.10\", \"3.11\"]\n
[[envs.test.matrix]]\npython = [\"3.7\", \"3.8\", \"3.9\", \"3.10\", \"3.11\"]\n

then locating environments with the following command:

hatch env find test\n

will show that the general directory structure is:

.hatch\n\u251c\u2500\u2500 test.py3.7\n\u251c\u2500\u2500 test.py3.8\n\u251c\u2500\u2500 test.py3.9\n\u251c\u2500\u2500 test.py3.10\n\u2514\u2500\u2500 test.py3.11\n

This flat structure is required for detection of virtual environments by tools like Visual Studio Code and PyCharm.

Additionally, the virtual environment type now supports a path option to specify an explicit path that all inherited environments will share, such as the common .venv.

Hatch v1.8.0 brings Python distribution management, static analysis and formatting backed by Ruff, and binaries for every platform.

"},{"location":"blog/2023/12/11/hatch-v180/#installation-made-easy","title":"Installation made easy","text":"

One thing that has been a perpetual problem for Hatch and other Python applications is that Python itself is a dependency. You, and more importantly your users, need to in some way get Python before your software can even be used. The recommended way to go about that is platform-dependent and even differs based on your target audience. I viewed this as a central UX problem for Hatch and so severe that I took a bit of a hiatus to solve it.

Luckily, I have to my satisfaction solved this problem in the form of PyApp. It is a runtime installer for Python projects written in Rust. Apps are distributed as standalone executables as users have come to expect and bootstrapping occurs upon the first invocation. Here is an example of what you would see the first time you run a binary from this release:

Now that we have binaries, creating installers for different platforms becomes trivial. Starting with this release not only are binaries available for every platform but also we have installers for Windows and macOS. The installer for macOS is signed using a certificate from the same account used to sign the official distributions from https://www.python.org, so users will not get any security pop-ups. Shout out to @ewdurbin for their extreme generosity in setting up multiple certificates in their free time!

These installers and binaries are now the recommended way to install and update Hatch. These binaries have built-in management so you can update to the latest version by running hatch self update.

Windows signing

In future we will sign the installers for Windows but I did not have time to look into how that works. macOS signing took way longer than I anticipated

"},{"location":"blog/2023/12/11/hatch-v180/#python-management","title":"Python management","text":"

For a long time I and other users have desired that Hatch gain the ability to manage Python distributions. In my mind this was always blocked on a better installation experience because there was sort of a chicken-or-egg problem where you want a Python manager but you first need Python. No longer is that the case!

The new python command group allows for easy installation of various distributions to arbitrary locations which are then added to your PATH by default. Hatch supports CPython and PyPy distributions:

"},{"location":"blog/2023/12/11/hatch-v180/#virtual-environment-python-resolution","title":"Virtual environment Python resolution","text":"

The virtual environment type is now far more intelligent when resolving the parent distribution to use and guarantees that, when no specific version is requested, the resolved distribution will always be compatible with the project.

Additionally, when a requested version cannot be found on PATH it will automatically be downloaded and managed internally.

"},{"location":"blog/2023/12/11/hatch-v180/#static-analysis","title":"Static analysis","text":"

There is a new fmt command, backed entirely by Ruff, that checks and fixes your code for formatting and linting issues.

Starting with this release, Hatch maintains default settings that are guaranteed to be up-to-date and represent best practices for programming in modern Python. The idea is to provide defaults that are so broadly applicable that the majority of users will maintain little if any of their own overrides.

The default behavior is internal management of settings to provide an OOTB experience that works. It is recommended however that you persist the default config file in version control so that other tools like IDEs can utilize your full configuration.

Since Ruff is now provided as a built-in feature, new project templates no longer have such configuration and are much less verbose.

"},{"location":"blog/2023/12/11/hatch-v180/#build-improvements","title":"Build improvements","text":"

Building projects that do not use Hatchling as a backend is now supported and such builds are managed with the standard build tool.

The bridge between Hatch and the Hatchling CLI has been removed. Previously, the builder would send serialized messages to Hatch that would contain the desired content and style for each line of output. This was done in an effort to allow builder and build hook plugins to output pretty messages without actually requiring a dependency like Rich. A problem that arises with this is that builders that invoke subprocesses will not display ANSI codes as one might expect and will lose out on the interactive experience of such invocations, like the built-in app builder plugin calling cargo build. So now everything is simpler at the expense of no colored output without manual logic, or adding a dependency if you're a third-party plugin.

"},{"location":"blog/2023/12/11/hatch-v180/#faster-environment-usage","title":"Faster environment usage","text":"

Spawning a shell or running commands within environments always first checks that your project's dependencies are satisfied and if not synchronizes the environment with what is defined. Previously, this had the potential to be quite slow for projects that have many dependencies.

Now the set of dependency definitions is hashed and no check is performed if the hash is the same as before, significantly speeding up environment usage in most cases.

Upcoming features include a test command, commands to manage dependencies, and workspaces functionality similar to Cargo that will make managing monorepos far easier.

Next year there will be two large efforts that you should expect to see:

  1. A significant amount of my free time (and some at work) will be devoted to introducing lock file functionality in Hatch and trying to get whatever that happens to be standardized.

    I met with @brettcannon about his thoughts post-PEP 665 and about mousebender. I also met with the prefix.dev team about rip and was fortunate enough to be shown a demo before its official announcement.

    At the moment, the two options I see are to either go all in and contribute to mousebender or rely on the Prefix folks and use rip. The latter has the benefit of potentially supporting Conda as a side effect with the downside of being quite new with the spec firmly out of our control. The former has the benefit of being able to easily gain institutional support from the Python packaging team and each of our employers with the downside being a significant amount of work needing to be done.

  2. When @henryiii is able to get some free time away from teaching I plan to work with him once again and push very hard for the Python build ecosystem to adopt the extensionlib approach.

    I am of the opinion that the Python community has not fully completed the expressed outcome of PEP 517 in that build backends are still (for the most part) reliant on setuptools for building non-Python code bases.

    Basically, there are components that interact with compilers to produce extension modules and components that pack files into an archive which we call a build backend. These are two distinct pieces of functionality and my view is that there should be an API that allows backends to consume extension module builders to find out where things got created and where they should be shipped inside archives.

    In this hypothetical future any build backend would be able to trigger the building of extension modules based on user configuration.

Build targets are defined as sections within tool.hatch.build.targets:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.<TARGET_NAME>]\n
[build.targets.<TARGET_NAME>]\n

Tip

Although not recommended, you may define global configuration in the tool.hatch.build table. Keys may then be overridden by target config.

"},{"location":"config/build/#build-system","title":"Build system","text":"

To be compatible with the broader Python packaging ecosystem, you must define the build system as follows:

pyproject.toml
[build-system]\nrequires = [\"hatchling\"]\nbuild-backend = \"hatchling.build\"\n

The version of hatchling defined here will be used to build all targets.

Hatchling is a standards-compliant1 build backend and is a dependency of Hatch itself.

"},{"location":"config/build/#file-selection","title":"File selection","text":""},{"location":"config/build/#vcs","title":"VCS","text":"

By default, Hatch will respect the first .gitignore or .hgignore file found in your project's root directory or parent directories. Set ignore-vcs to true to disable this behavior:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.sdist]\nignore-vcs = true\n
[build.targets.sdist]\nignore-vcs = true\n

Note

For .hgignore files only glob syntax is supported.

"},{"location":"config/build/#patterns","title":"Patterns","text":"

You can set the include and exclude options to select exactly which files will be shipped in each build, with exclude taking precedence. Every entry represents a Git-style glob pattern.

For example, the following configuration:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.sdist]\ninclude = [\n  \"pkg/*.py\",\n  \"/tests\",\n]\nexclude = [\n  \"*.json\",\n  \"pkg/_compat.py\",\n]\n
[build.targets.sdist]\ninclude = [\n  \"pkg/*.py\",\n  \"/tests\",\n]\nexclude = [\n  \"*.json\",\n  \"pkg/_compat.py\",\n]\n

will exclude every file with a .json extension, and will include everything under a tests directory located at the root and every file with a .py extension that is directly under a pkg directory located at the root except for _compat.py.

"},{"location":"config/build/#artifacts","title":"Artifacts","text":"

If you want to include files that are ignored by your VCS, such as those that might be created by build hooks, you can use the artifacts option. This option is semantically equivalent to include.

Note that artifacts are not affected by the exclude option. Artifacts can be excluded by using more explicit paths or by using the ! negation operator. When using the ! operator, the negated pattern(s) must come after the more generic ones.

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel]\nartifacts = [\n  \"*.so\",\n  \"*.dll\",\n  \"!/foo/*.so\",\n]\n
[build.targets.wheel]\nartifacts = [\n  \"*.so\",\n  \"*.dll\",\n  \"!/foo/*.so\",\n]\n
"},{"location":"config/build/#explicit-selection","title":"Explicit selection","text":""},{"location":"config/build/#generic","title":"Generic","text":"

You can use the only-include option to prevent directory traversal starting at the project root and only select specific relative paths to directories or files. Using this option ignores any defined include patterns.

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.sdist]\nonly-include = [\"pkg\", \"tests/unit\"]\n
[build.targets.sdist]\nonly-include = [\"pkg\", \"tests/unit\"]\n
"},{"location":"config/build/#packages","title":"Packages","text":"

The packages option is semantically equivalent to only-include (which takes precedence) except that the shipped path will be collapsed to only include the final component.

So for example, if you want to ship a package foo that is stored in a directory src you would do:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel]\npackages = [\"src/foo\"]\n
[build.targets.wheel]\npackages = [\"src/foo\"]\n
"},{"location":"config/build/#forced-inclusion","title":"Forced inclusion","text":"

The force-include option allows you to select specific files or directories from anywhere on the file system that should be included and map them to the desired relative distribution path.

For example, if there was a directory alongside the project root named artifacts containing a file named lib.so and a file named lib.h in your home directory, you could ship both files in a pkg directory with the following configuration:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel.force-include]\n\"../artifacts\" = \"pkg\"\n\"~/lib.h\" = \"pkg/lib.h\"\n
[build.targets.wheel.force-include]\n\"../artifacts\" = \"pkg\"\n\"~/lib.h\" = \"pkg/lib.h\"\n

Note

Warning

Files included using this option will overwrite any file path that was already included by other file selection options.

"},{"location":"config/build/#default-file-selection","title":"Default file selection","text":"

If no file selection options are provided, then what gets included is determined by each build target.

"},{"location":"config/build/#excluding-files-outside-packages","title":"Excluding files outside packages","text":"

If you want to exclude non-artifact files that do not reside within a Python package, set only-packages to true:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel]\nonly-packages = true\n
[build.targets.wheel]\nonly-packages = true\n
"},{"location":"config/build/#rewriting-paths","title":"Rewriting paths","text":"

You can rewrite relative paths to directories with the sources option. For example, the following configuration:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel.sources]\n\"src/foo\" = \"bar\"\n
[build.targets.wheel.sources]\n\"src/foo\" = \"bar\"\n

would distribute the file src/foo/file.ext as bar/file.ext.

If you want to remove path prefixes entirely, rather than setting each to an empty string, you can define sources as an array:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel]\nsources = [\"src\"]\n
[build.targets.wheel]\nsources = [\"src\"]\n

If you want to add a prefix to paths, you can use an empty string. For example, the following configuration:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel.sources]\n\"\" = \"foo\"\n
[build.targets.wheel.sources]\n\"\" = \"foo\"\n

would distribute the file bar/file.ext as foo/bar/file.ext.

The packages option itself relies on sources. Defining packages = [\"src/foo\"] for the wheel target is equivalent to the following:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel]\nonly-include = [\"src/foo\"]\nsources = [\"src\"]\n
[build.targets.wheel]\nonly-include = [\"src/foo\"]\nsources = [\"src\"]\n
"},{"location":"config/build/#performance","title":"Performance","text":"

All encountered directories are traversed by default. To skip non-artifact directories that are excluded, set skip-excluded-dirs to true:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build]\nskip-excluded-dirs = true\n
[build]\nskip-excluded-dirs = true\n

Warning

This may result in not shipping desired files. For example, if you want to include the file a/b/c.txt but your VCS ignores a/b, the file c.txt will not be seen because its parent directory will not be entered. In such cases you can use the force-include option.

"},{"location":"config/build/#reproducible-builds","title":"Reproducible builds","text":"

By default, build targets will build in a reproducible manner provided that they support that behavior. To disable this, set reproducible to false:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build]\nreproducible = false\n
[build]\nreproducible = false\n

When enabled, the SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH environment variable will be used for all build timestamps. If not set, then Hatch will use an unchanging default value.

"},{"location":"config/build/#output-directory","title":"Output directory","text":"

When the output directory is not provided to the build command, the dist directory will be used by default. You can change the default to a different directory using a relative or absolute path like so:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build]\ndirectory = \"<PATH>\"\n
[build]\ndirectory = \"<PATH>\"\n
"},{"location":"config/build/#dev-mode","title":"Dev mode","text":"

By default for dev mode environment installations or editable installs, the wheel target will determine which directories should be added to Python's search path based on the selected files.

If you want to override this detection or perhaps instruct other build targets as well, you can use the dev-mode-dirs option:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build]\ndev-mode-dirs = [\".\"]\n
[build]\ndev-mode-dirs = [\".\"]\n

If you don't want to add entire directories to Python's search path, you can enable a more targeted mechanism with the mutually exclusive dev-mode-exact option:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build]\ndev-mode-exact = true\n
[build]\ndev-mode-exact = true\n

Warning

The dev-mode-exact mechanism is not supported by static analysis tools & IDEs, therefore functionality such as autocompletion is unlikely to work.

A build hook defines code that will be executed at various stages of the build process and can be provided by any build hook plugin. There is one built-in build hook: custom.

Build hooks can be applied either globally:

"},{"location":"config/context/","title":"Context formatting","text":"

You can populate configuration with the values of certain supported fields using the syntax of Python's format strings. Each field interprets the modifier part after the colon differently, if at all.

"},{"location":"config/context/#global-fields","title":"Global fields","text":"

Any configuration that declares support for context formatting will always support these fields.

"},{"location":"config/context/#paths","title":"Paths","text":"Field Description root The root project directory home The user's home directory

All paths support the following modifiers:

Modifier Description uri The normalized absolute URI path prefixed by file: real The path with all symbolic links resolved parent The parent of the preceding path

Tip

The parent modifier can be chained and may be combined with either the uri or real modifier, with the latter placed at the end. For example:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.envs.test]\ndependencies = [\n    \"example-project @ {root:parent:parent:uri}/example-project\",\n]\n
[envs.test]\ndependencies = [\n    \"example-project @ {root:parent:parent:uri}/example-project\",\n]\n

The env field and its modifier allow you to select the value of an environment variable. If the environment variable is not set, you must specify a default value as an additional modifier e.g. {env:PATH:DEFAULT}.

"},{"location":"config/context/#field-nesting","title":"Field nesting","text":"

You can insert fields within others. For example, if you wanted a script that displays the value of the environment variable FOO, with a fallback to the environment variable BAR, with its own fallback to the user's home directory, you could do the following:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.envs.test.scripts]\ndisplay = \"echo {env:FOO:{env:BAR:{home}}}\"\n
[envs.test.scripts]\ndisplay = \"echo {env:FOO:{env:BAR:{home}}}\"\n
"},{"location":"config/dependency/","title":"Dependency configuration","text":"

Project dependencies are defined with PEP 508 strings using optional PEP 440 version specifiers.

"},{"location":"config/dependency/#version-specifiers","title":"Version specifiers","text":"

A version specifier consists of a series of version clauses, separated by commas. For example:

pyproject.toml
[project]\n...\ndependencies = [\n  \"cryptography\",\n  \"click>=7, <9, != 8.0.0\",\n  \"python-dateutil==2.8.*\",\n  \"numpy~=1.21.4\",\n]\n

The comma is equivalent to a logical AND operator: a candidate version must match all given version clauses in order to match the specifier as a whole.

"},{"location":"config/dependency/#operators","title":"Operators","text":"Operators Function ~= Compatible release == Version matching != Version exclusion <=, >= Inclusive ordered comparison <, > Exclusive ordered comparison === Arbitrary equality"},{"location":"config/dependency/#version-matching","title":"Version matching","text":"

A version matching clause includes the version matching operator == and a version identifier.

By default, the version matching operator is based on a strict equality comparison: the specified version must be exactly the same as the requested version.

Clause Allowed versions ==1 1.0.0 ==1.2 1.2.0

Prefix matching may be requested instead of strict comparison, by appending a trailing .* to the version identifier in the version matching clause. This means that additional trailing segments will be ignored when determining whether or not a version identifier matches the clause.

Clause Allowed versions ==1.* >=1.0.0, <2.0.0 ==1.2.* >=1.2.0, <1.3.0"},{"location":"config/dependency/#compatible-release","title":"Compatible release","text":"

A compatible release clause consists of the compatible release operator ~= and a version identifier. It matches any candidate version that is expected to be compatible with the specified version.

For a given release identifier V.N, the compatible release clause is approximately equivalent to the following pair of comparison clauses:

>= V.N, == V.*\n

This operator cannot be used with a single segment version number such as ~=1.

Clause Allowed versions ~=1.2 >=1.2.0, <2.0.0 ~=1.2.3 >=1.2.3, <1.3.0"},{"location":"config/dependency/#version-exclusion","title":"Version exclusion","text":"

A version exclusion clause includes the version exclusion operator != and a version identifier.

The allowed version identifiers and comparison semantics are the same as those of the Version matching operator, except that the sense of any match is inverted.

"},{"location":"config/dependency/#ordered-comparison","title":"Ordered comparison","text":"

Inclusive comparisons allow for the version identifier part of clauses whereas exclusive comparisons do not. For example, >=1.2 allows for version 1.2.0 while >1.2 does not.

Unlike the inclusive ordered comparisons <= and >=, the exclusive ordered comparisons < and > specifically exclude pre-releases, post-releases, and local versions of the specified version.

"},{"location":"config/dependency/#arbitrary-equality","title":"Arbitrary equality","text":"

Though heavily discouraged, arbitrary equality comparisons allow for simple string matching without any version semantics, for example ===foobar.

"},{"location":"config/dependency/#environment-markers","title":"Environment markers","text":"

Environment markers allow for dependencies to only be installed when certain conditions are met.

For example, if you need to install the latest version of cryptography that is available for a given Python major version you could define the following:

cryptography==3.3.2; python_version < \"3\"\ncryptography>=35.0; python_version > \"3\"\n

Alternatively, if you only need it on Python 3 when running on Windows you could do:

cryptography; python_version ~= \"3.0\" and platform_system == \"Windows\"\n

The available environment markers are as follows.

Marker Python equivalent Examples os_name import osos.name sys_platform import syssys.platform platform_machine import platformplatform.machine() platform_python_implementation import platformplatform.python_implementation() platform_release import platformplatform.release() platform_system import platformplatform.system() platform_version import platformplatform.version() python_version import platform'.'.join(platform.python_version_tuple()[:2]) python_full_version import platformplatform.python_version() implementation_name import syssys.implementation.name implementation_version See here "},{"location":"config/dependency/#features","title":"Features","text":"

You can select groups of optional dependencies to install using the extras syntax. For example, if a dependency named foo defined the following:

pyproject.toml
[project.optional-dependencies]\ncrypto = [\n  \"PyJWT\",\n  \"cryptography\",\n]\nfastjson = [\n  \"orjson\",\n]\ncli = [\n  \"prompt-toolkit\",\n  \"colorama; platform_system == 'Windows'\",\n]\n

You can select the cli and crypto features like so:

foo[cli,crypto]==1.*\n

Note that the features come immediately after the package name, before any version specifiers.

"},{"location":"config/dependency/#self-referential","title":"Self-referential","text":"

Feature groups can self-referentially extend others. For example, for a project called awesome-project, the dev feature group in the following pyproject.toml file would select everything in the crypto feature group, plus black:

pyproject.toml
[project]\nname = \"awesome-project\"\n\n[project.optional-dependencies]\ncrypto = [\n  \"PyJWT\",\n  \"cryptography\",\n]\ndev = [\n  \"awesome-project[crypto]\",\n  \"black\",\n]\n
"},{"location":"config/dependency/#direct-references","title":"Direct references","text":"

Instead of using normal version specifiers and fetching packages from an index like PyPI, you can define exact sources using direct references with an explicit URI.

Direct references are usually not meant to be used for dependencies of a published project but rather are used for defining dependencies for an environment.

All direct reference types are prefixed by the package name like:

<NAME> @ <REFERENCE>\n
"},{"location":"config/dependency/#version-control-systems","title":"Version control systems","text":"

Various version control systems (VCS) are supported as long as the associated executable is available along your PATH.

VCS direct references are defined using one of the following formats:

<NAME> @ <SCHEME>://<PATH>\n<NAME> @ <SCHEME>://<PATH>@<REVISION>\n

You may also append a #subdirectory=<PATH> component for specifying the relative path to the Python package when it is not located at the root e.g. #subdirectory=lib/foo.

You can install local packages with the file scheme in the following format:

<NAME> @ file://<HOST>/<PATH>\n

The <HOST> is only used on Windows systems, where it can refer to a network share. If omitted it is assumed to be localhost and the third slash must still be present.

The <PATH> can refer to a source archive, a wheel, or a directory containing a Python package.

Type Unix Windows Source archive proj @ file:///path/to/pkg.tar.gz proj @ file:///c:/path/to/pkg.tar.gz Wheel proj @ file:///path/to/pkg.whl proj @ file:///c:/path/to/pkg.whl Directory proj @ file:///path/to/pkg proj @ file:///c:/path/to/pkg

Tip

You may also specify paths relative to your project's root directory on all platforms by using context formatting:

<NAME> @ {root:uri}/pkg_inside_project\n<NAME> @ {root:uri}/../pkg_alongside_project\n
"},{"location":"config/dependency/#remote","title":"Remote","text":"

You can install source archives and wheels by simply referring to a URL:

In this mode, Hatch will only work on the selected project. The project is located using multiple heuristics:

  1. If the project is defined in the projects table then it must be a string, or an inline table with a location key, that is the full path to the project.
  2. If the project matches a subdirectory in any of the directories listed in dirs.project, then that will be used as the project root.

An error will occur if the project cannot be found.

You can use the config set command to change the project you are working on:

$ hatch config set project proj2\nNew setting:\nproject = \"proj2\"\n

Hatch provides default settings that user configuration can extend.

"},{"location":"config/static-analysis/#extending-config","title":"Extending config","text":"

When defining your configuration, be sure to use options that are prefixed by extend- such as extend-select, for example:

pyproject.toml ruff.toml
[tool.ruff.format]\npreview = true\nquote-style = \"single\"\n\n[tool.ruff.lint]\npreview = true\nextend-select = [\"C901\"]\n\n[tool.ruff.lint.extend-per-file-ignores]\n\"docs/.hooks/*\" = [\"INP001\", \"T201\"]\n\n[tool.ruff.lint.isort]\nknown-first-party = [\"foo\", \"bar\"]\n

Note

When not persisting config, there is no need to explicitly extend the defaults as Hatch automatically handles that.

"},{"location":"config/static-analysis/#persistent-config","title":"Persistent config","text":"

If you want to store the default configuration in the project, set an explicit path like so:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.envs.hatch-static-analysis]\nconfig-path = \"ruff_defaults.toml\"\n
[envs.hatch-static-analysis]\nconfig-path = \"ruff_defaults.toml\"\n

Then instruct Ruff to consider your configuration as an extension of the default file:

pyproject.toml ruff.toml
[tool.ruff]\nextend = \"ruff_defaults.toml\"\n
extend = \"ruff_defaults.toml\"\n

Anytime you wish to update the defaults (such as when upgrading Hatch), you must run the fmt command once with the --sync flag e.g.:

hatch fmt --check --sync\n

Tip

This is the recommended approach since it allows other tools like IDEs to use the default configuration.

You can pin the particular version of Ruff by explicitly defining the environment dependencies:

All environments support the following extra context formatting fields:

Field Description env_name The name of the environment env_type The type of environment matrix Its modifier selects the value of that matrix variable. If the environment is not part of a matrix or was not generated with the variable, you must specify a default value as an additional modifier e.g. {matrix:version:v1.0.0}. verbosity The integer verbosity value of Hatch. A flag modifier is supported that will render the value as a CLI flag e.g. -2 becomes -qq, 1 becomes -v, and 0 becomes an empty string. An additional flag integer modifier may be used to adjust the verbosity level. For example, if you wanted to make a command quiet by default, you could use {verbosity:flag:-1} within the command. args For executed commands only, any extra command line arguments with an optional default modifier if none were provided"},{"location":"config/environment/advanced/#matrix","title":"Matrix","text":"

Environments can define a series of matrices with the matrix option:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.envs.test]\ndependencies = [\n  \"pytest\"\n]\n\n[[tool.hatch.envs.test.matrix]]\npython = [\"2.7\", \"3.8\"]\nversion = [\"42\", \"3.14\"]\n\n[[tool.hatch.envs.test.matrix]]\npython = [\"3.8\", \"3.9\"]\nversion = [\"9000\"]\nfeature = [\"foo\", \"bar\"]\n

Doing so will result in the product of each variable combination being its own environment.

"},{"location":"config/environment/advanced/#naming","title":"Naming","text":"

The name of the generated environments will be the variable values of each combination separated by hyphens, altogether prefixed by <ENV_NAME>.. For example, the following configuration:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[[tool.hatch.envs.test.matrix]]\nversion = [\"42\"]\nfeature = [\"foo\", \"bar\"]\n
[[envs.test.matrix]]\nversion = [\"42\"]\nfeature = [\"foo\", \"bar\"]\n

would indicate the following unique environments:

test.42-foo\ntest.42-bar\n

The exceptions to this format are described below.

"},{"location":"config/environment/advanced/#python-variables","title":"Python variables","text":"

If the variables py or python are specified, then they will rank first in the product result and will be prefixed by py if the value is not. For example, the following configuration:

[[envs.test.matrix]]\nversion = [\"42\"]\npython = [\"3.9\", \"pypy3\"]\n

would generate the following environments:

test.py3.9-42\ntest.pypy3-42\n

Note

The value of this variable sets the Python version.

"},{"location":"config/environment/advanced/#name-formatting","title":"Name formatting","text":"

You can set the matrix-name-format option to modify how each variable part is formatted which recognizes the placeholders {variable} and {value}. For example, the following configuration:

[tool.hatch.envs.test]\nmatrix-name-format = \"{variable}_{value}\"\n\n[[tool.hatch.envs.test.matrix]]\nversion = [\"42\"]\nfeature = [\"foo\", \"bar\"]\n
[envs.test]\nmatrix-name-format = \"{variable}_{value}\"\n\n[[envs.test.matrix]]\nversion = [\"42\"]\nfeature = [\"foo\", \"bar\"]\n

would produce the following environments:

By default this option is set to {value}.

"},{"location":"config/environment/advanced/#default-environment","title":"Default environment","text":"

If the default environment defines matrices, then the generated names will not be prefixed by the environment name. This can be useful for projects that only need a single series of matrices without any standalone environments.

"},{"location":"config/environment/advanced/#selection","title":"Selection","text":"

Rather than selecting a single generated environment, you can select the root environment to target all of them. For example, if you have the following configuration:

The storage location for environments is completely configurable.

Unless an environment is explicitly selected on the command line, the default environment will be used. The type of this environment defaults to virtual.

Info

Environments prefixed by hatch- are used for special purposes e.g. static analysis.

"},{"location":"config/environment/overview/#inheritance","title":"Inheritance","text":"

All environments inherit from the environment defined by its template option, which defaults to default.

the environment bar will be of type baz with skip-install set to false.

Note

Environments do not inherit matrices.

"},{"location":"config/environment/overview/#self-referential-environments","title":"Self-referential environments","text":"

You can disable inheritance by setting template to the environment's own name:

[tool.hatch.envs.foo]\ntemplate = \"foo\"\n
[envs.foo]\ntemplate = \"foo\"\n
"},{"location":"config/environment/overview/#detached-environments","title":"Detached environments","text":"

A common use case is standalone environments that do not require inheritance nor the installation of the project, such as for linting or sometimes building documentation. Enabling the detached option will make the environment self-referential and will skip project installation:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.envs.lint]\ndetached = true\n
[envs.lint]\ndetached = true\n
"},{"location":"config/environment/overview/#dependencies","title":"Dependencies","text":"

You can install dependencies in addition to the ones defined by your project's metadata. Entries support context formatting.

[envs.test]\ndependencies = [\n  \"coverage[toml]\",\n  \"pytest\",\n  \"pytest-cov\",\n  \"pytest-mock\",\n]\n

If you define environments with dependencies that only slightly differ from their inherited environments, you can use the extra-dependencies option to avoid redeclaring the dependencies option:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.envs.default]\ndependencies = [\n  \"foo\",\n  \"bar\",\n]\n\n[tool.hatch.envs.experimental]\nextra-dependencies = [\n  \"baz\",\n]\n
[envs.default]\ndependencies = [\n  \"foo\",\n  \"bar\",\n]\n\n[envs.experimental]\nextra-dependencies = [\n  \"baz\",\n]\n

Tip

Hatch uses pip to install dependencies so any configuration it supports Hatch does as well. For example, if you wanted to only use a private repository you could set the PIP_INDEX_URL environment variable.

[envs.<ENV_NAME>]\nenv-include = [\n  \"FOO*\",\n]\nenv-exclude = [\n  \"BAR\",\n]\n

Exclusion patterns take precedence but will never affect defined environment variables.

"},{"location":"config/environment/overview/#scripts","title":"Scripts","text":"

You can define named scripts that may be executed or referenced at the beginning of other scripts. Context formatting is supported.

For example, in the following configuration:

the run script would be expanded to:

pytest --cov-config=pyproject.toml --cov=pkg --cov=tests --no-cov\n

Scripts can also be defined as an array of strings.

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.envs.style]\ndetached = true\ndependencies = [\n  \"flake8\",\n  \"black\",\n  \"isort\",\n]\n[tool.hatch.envs.style.scripts]\ncheck = [\n  \"flake8 .\",\n  \"black --check --diff .\",\n  \"isort --check-only --diff .\",\n]\nfmt = [\n  \"isort .\",\n  \"black .\",\n  \"check\",\n]\n

Similar to make, you can ignore the exit code of commands that start with - (a hyphen). For example, the script error defined by the following configuration would halt after the second command with 3 as the exit code:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.envs.test.scripts]\nerror = [\n  \"- exit 1\",\n  \"exit 3\",\n  \"exit 0\",\n]\n
[envs.test.scripts]\nerror = [\n  \"- exit 1\",\n  \"exit 3\",\n  \"exit 0\",\n]\n

Tip

Individual scripts inherit from parent environments just like options.

This is the initial public release of the Hatchling build system. Support for Python 2 will be dropped in version 1.

"},{"location":"how-to/environment/package-indices/","title":"Package indices","text":"

Most Hatch environment types, like the default virtual, simply use pip to install dependencies. Therefore, you can use the standard environment variables that influence pip's behavior to choose where to search for packages.

Here's an example of setting up the default environment to look at 2 private indices (using context formatting for authentication) before finally falling back to PyPI:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.envs.default.env-vars]\nPIP_INDEX_URL = \"https://token:{env:GITLAB_API_TOKEN}@gitlab.com/api/v4/groups/<group1_path>/-/packages/pypi/simple/\"\nPIP_EXTRA_INDEX_URL = \"https://token:{env:GITLAB_API_TOKEN}@gitlab.com/api/v4/groups/<group2_path>/-/packages/pypi/simple/ https://pypi.org/simple/\"\n
[envs.default.env-vars]\nPIP_INDEX_URL = \"https://token:{env:GITLAB_API_TOKEN}@gitlab.com/api/v4/groups/<group1_path>/-/packages/pypi/simple/\"\nPIP_EXTRA_INDEX_URL = \"https://token:{env:GITLAB_API_TOKEN}@gitlab.com/api/v4/groups/<group2_path>/-/packages/pypi/simple/ https://pypi.org/simple/\"\n
"},{"location":"how-to/plugins/testing-builds/","title":"Testing builds","text":"

For testing Hatchling plugins, you'll usually want to generate a project to execute builds as a real user would. For example, as a minimal pytest fixture:

from pathlib import Path\n\nimport pytest\n\n\n@pytest.fixture\ndef new_project(tmp_path):\n    project_dir = tmp_path / 'my-app'\n    project_dir.mkdir()\n\n    project_file = project_dir / 'pyproject.toml'\n    project_file.write_text(\n        f\"\"\"\\\n[build-system]\nrequires = [\"hatchling\", \"hatch-plugin-name @ {Path.cwd().as_uri()}\"]\nbuild-backend = \"hatchling.build\"\n\n[project]\nname = \"my-app\"\nversion = \"0.1.0\"\n\"\"\",\n        encoding='utf-8',\n    )\n    ...\n

The issue with this is that after the first test session, the project will be forever cached by pip based on the file path. Therefore, subsequent tests runs will never use updated code.

To invalidate the cache, copy your code to a new path for every test session:

import shutil\nfrom pathlib import Path\nfrom tempfile import TemporaryDirectory\n\nimport pytest\n\n\n@pytest.fixture(scope='session')\ndef plugin_dir():\n    with TemporaryDirectory() as d:\n        directory = Path(d, 'plugin')\n        shutil.copytree(\n            Path.cwd(), directory, ignore=shutil.ignore_patterns('.git')\n        )\n\n        yield directory.resolve()\n\n\n@pytest.fixture\ndef new_project(tmp_path, plugin_dir):\n    project_dir = tmp_path / 'my-app'\n    project_dir.mkdir()\n\n    project_file = project_dir / 'pyproject.toml'\n    project_file.write_text(\n        f\"\"\"\\\n[build-system]\nrequires = [\"hatchling\", \"hatch-plugin-name @ {plugin_dir.as_uri()}\"]\nbuild-backend = \"hatchling.build\"\n\n[project]\nname = \"my-app\"\nversion = \"0.1.0\"\n\"\"\",\n        encoding='utf-8',\n    )\n    ...\n

Note

This example chooses to ignore copying .git for performance reasons. You may want to ignore more patterns, or copy only specific paths like this plugin does.

Q: What is the risk of lock-in?

A: Not much! Other than the plugin system, everything uses Python's established standards by default. Project metadata is based entirely on the standard, the build system is compatible with PEP 517/PEP 660, versioning uses the scheme specified by PEP 440, dependencies are defined with PEP 508 strings, and environments use virtualenv.

Q: Must one use all features?

A: No, all features are optional! You can use just the build system, publish wheels and source distributions that were built by other tools, only use the environment management, etc.

"},{"location":"meta/faq/#libraries-vs-applications","title":"Libraries vs applications","text":"

Q: Are workflows for both libraries and applications supported?

A: Yes, mostly! Applications can utilize environment management just like libraries, and plugins can be used to build projects in arbitrary formats or publish artifacts to arbitrary destinations.

The only caveat is that currently there is no support for re-creating an environment given a set of dependencies in a reproducible manner. Although a standard lock file format may be far off since [PEP 665][] was rejected, resolving capabilities are coming to pip. When that is stabilized, Hatch will add locking functionality and dedicated documentation for managing applications.

"},{"location":"meta/faq/#fast-cli","title":"Fast CLI?","text":"

The claim about being faster than other tools is based on timings that are always checked in CI.

Hatch achieves this by using lazy imports, lazily performing computation manually and with functools.cached_property, using hacks like not not ... instead of bool(...), etc.

"},{"location":"plugins/about/","title":"Plugins","text":"

Hatch utilizes pluggy for its plugin functionality.

"},{"location":"plugins/about/#overview","title":"Overview","text":"

All plugins provide registration hooks that return one or more classes that inherit from a particular type interface.

Each registration hook must be decorated by Hatch's hook marker. For example, if you wanted to create a new kind of environment you could do:

hooks.py
from hatchling.plugin import hookimpl\n\nfrom .plugin import SpecialEnvironment\n\n\n@hookimpl\ndef hatch_register_environment():\n    return SpecialEnvironment\n

The hooks can return a single class or a list of classes.

Every class must define an attribute called PLUGIN_NAME that users will select when they wish to use the plugin. So in the example above, the class might be defined like:

plugin.py
...\nclass SpecialEnvironment(...):\n    PLUGIN_NAME = 'special'\n    ...\n
"},{"location":"plugins/about/#project-configuration","title":"Project configuration","text":""},{"location":"plugins/about/#naming","title":"Naming","text":"

pyproject.toml
[project]\nname = \"hatch-foo\"\n

You'll need to define your project as a Python plugin for Hatch:

Build hooks run for every selected version of build targets.

The initialization stage occurs immediately before each build and the finalization stage occurs immediately after. Each stage has the opportunity to view or modify build data.

"},{"location":"plugins/build-hook/reference/#build-data","title":"Build data","text":"

Build data is a simple mapping whose contents can influence the behavior of builds. Which fields exist and are recognized depends on each build target.

The following fields are always present and recognized by the build system itself:

Field Type Description artifacts list[str] This is a list of extra artifact patterns and should generally only be appended to force_include dict[str, str] This is a mapping of extra forced inclusion paths, with this mapping taking precedence in case of conflicts build_hooks tuple[str, ...] This is an immutable sequence of the names of the configured build hooks and matches the order in which they run

Attention

While user-facing TOML options are hyphenated, build data fields should be named with underscores to allow plugins to use them as valid Python identifiers.

"},{"location":"plugins/build-hook/reference/#notes","title":"Notes","text":"

In some cases it may be necessary to use force_include rather than artifacts. For example, say that you want to install a lib.so directly at the root of site-packages and a project defines a package src/foo. If you create src/lib.so, there will never be a match because the directory traversal starts at src/foo rather than src. In that case you must do either:

build_data['force_include']['src/lib.so'] = 'src/lib.so'\n

or

build_data['force_include']['/absolute/path/to/src/lib.so'] = 'src/lib.so'\n

"},{"location":"plugins/environment/virtual/#python-resolution","title":"Python resolution","text":"

Virtual environments necessarily require a parent installation of Python. The following rules determine how the parent is resolved.

The Python choice is determined by the python option followed by the HATCH_PYTHON environment variable. If the choice is via the environment variable, then resolution stops and that path is used unconditionally.

The resolvers will be based on the python-sources option and all resolved interpreters will ensure compatibility with the project's defined Python support.

If a Python version has been chosen then each resolver will try to find an interpreter that satisfies that version.

If no version has been chosen, then each resolver will try to find a version that matches the version of Python that Hatch is currently running on. If not found then each resolver will try to find the highest compatible version.

Note

Some external Python paths are considered unstable and are ignored during resolution. For example, if Hatch is installed via Homebrew then sys.executable will be ignored because the interpreter could change or be removed at any time.

Note

When resolution finds a match using an internally managed distribution and an update is available, the latest distribution will automatically be downloaded before environment creation.

If you need to set linker environment variables like those starting with DYLD_ or LD_, any executable secured by System Integrity Protection that is invoked when running commands will not see those environment variable modifications as macOS strips those.

Hatch interprets such commands as shell commands but deliberately ignores such paths to protected shells. This workaround suffices for the majority of use cases but there are 2 situations in which it may not:

  1. There are no unprotected sh, bash, zsh, nor fish executables found along PATH.
  2. The desired executable is a project's script, and the location of environments contains spaces or is longer than 1241 characters. In this case pip and other installers will create such an entry point with a shebang pointing to /bin/sh (which is protected) to avoid shebang limitations. Rather than changing the location, you could invoke the script as e.g. python -m pytest (if the project supports that method of invocation by shipping a __main__.py).

1.1.2 - 2022-05-20

Fixed:

  • Bump the minimum supported version of Hatchling to 1.2.0
  • Update project metadata to reflect support for Python 3.11

1.1.1 - 2022-05-12

Fixed:

  • Fix setuptools migration script for non-Windows systems

1.1.0 - 2022-05-12

Changed:

  • In order to simplify the implementation of command execution for environment plugins, the run_shell_commands method has been replaced by the singular run_shell_command. A new command_context method has been added to more easily satisfy complex use cases.
  • The finalize_command environment plugin method has been removed in favor of the newly introduced context formatting functionality.

Added:

  • Add context formatting functionality i.e. the ability to insert values into configuration like environment variables and command line arguments
  • Any verbosity for command execution will now always display headers, even for single environments
  • Every executed command is now displayed when running multiple commands or when verbosity is enabled
  • Similar to make, ignore the exit code of executed commands that start with - (a hyphen)
  • Add ability for the --init flag of the new command to automatically migrate setuptools configuration
  • Update project metadata to reflect the adoption by PyPA and production stability

1.0.0 - 2022-04-28

This is the first stable release of Hatch v1, a complete rewrite. Enjoy!

Builds are configured using the tool.hatch.build table. Every target is defined by a section within tool.hatch.build.targets, for example:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.sdist]\nexclude = [\n  \"/.github\",\n  \"/docs\",\n]\n\n[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel]\npackages = [\"src/foo\"]\n

"},{"location":"build/#building","title":"Building","text":"

Invoking the build command without any arguments will build the sdist and wheel targets:

$ hatch build\n[sdist]\ndist/hatch_demo-1rc0.tar.gz\n\n[wheel]\ndist/hatch_demo-1rc0-py3-none-any.whl\n

To only build specific targets, use the -t/--target option:

$ hatch build -t wheel\n[wheel]\ndist/hatch_demo-1rc0-py3-none-any.whl\n

If the target supports multiple versions, you can specify the exact versions to build by appending a colon followed by the desired versions separated by commas:

$ hatch -v build -t wheel:standard\n[wheel]\nBuilding `wheel` version `standard`\ndist/hatch_demo-1rc0-py3-none-any.whl\n
"},{"location":"build/#packaging-ecosystem","title":"Packaging ecosystem","text":"

Hatch complies with modern Python packaging specs and therefore your projects can be used by other tools with Hatch serving as just the build backend.

So you could use tox as an alternative to Hatch's environment management, or cibuildwheel to distribute packages for every platform, and they both will transparently use Hatch without any extra modification.

"},{"location":"environment/","title":"Environments","text":"

Environments are designed to allow for isolated workspaces for testing, building documentation, or anything else projects need.

Unless an environment is chosen explicitly, Hatch will use the default environment.

"},{"location":"environment/#creation","title":"Creation","text":"

You can create environments by using the env create command. Let's enter the directory of the project we created in the setup phase:

$ hatch env create\nCreating environment: default\nInstalling project in development mode\nSyncing dependencies\n

Tip

You never need to manually create environments as spawning a shell or running commands within one will automatically trigger creation.

"},{"location":"environment/#entering-environments","title":"Entering environments","text":"

You can spawn a shell within an environment by using the shell command.

$ hatch shell\n(hatch-demo) $\n

Now confirm the project has been installed:

(hatch-demo) $ pip show hatch-demo\nName: hatch-demo\nVersion: 0.0.1\n...\n

Finally, see where your environment's Python is located:

(hatch-demo) $ python -c \"import sys;print(sys.executable)\"\n...\n

You can type exit to leave the environment.

"},{"location":"environment/#command-execution","title":"Command execution","text":"

The run command allows you to execute commands in an environment as if you had already entered it. For example, running the following command will output the same path as before:

hatch run python -c \"import sys;print(sys.executable)\"\n
"},{"location":"environment/#scripts","title":"Scripts","text":"

You can also run any scripts that have been defined.

You'll notice that in the pyproject.toml file there are already scripts defined in the default environment. Try running the test command, which invokes pytest with some default arguments:

hatch run test\n

All additional arguments are passed through to that script, so for example if you wanted to see the version of pytest and which plugins are installed you could do:

hatch run test -VV\n
"},{"location":"environment/#dependencies","title":"Dependencies","text":"

Hatch ensures that environments are always compatible with the currently defined project dependencies (if installed and in dev mode) and environment dependencies.

To add cowsay as a dependency, open pyproject.toml and add it to the dependencies array:

pyproject.toml
[project]\n...\ndependencies = [\n  \"cowsay\"\n]\n

This dependency will be installed the next time you spawn a shell or run a command. For example:

$ hatch run cowsay -t \"Hello, world!\"\nSyncing dependencies\n  _____________\n| Hello, world! |\n  =============\n             \\\n              \\\n                ^__^\n                (oo)\\_______\n                (__)\\       )\\/\\\n                    ||----w |\n                    ||     ||\n

Note

The Syncing dependencies status will display temporarily when Hatch updates environments in response to any dependency changes that you make.

"},{"location":"environment/#selection","title":"Selection","text":"

You can select which environment to enter or run commands in by using the -e/--env root option or by setting the HATCH_ENV environment variable.

The run command allows for more explicit selection by prepending <ENV_NAME>: to commands. For example, if you had the following configuration:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.envs.docs]\ndependencies = [\n  \"mkdocs\"\n]\n[tool.hatch.envs.docs.scripts]\nbuild = \"mkdocs build --clean --strict\"\nserve = \"mkdocs serve --dev-addr localhost:8000\"\n
[envs.docs]\ndependencies = [\n  \"mkdocs\"\n]\n[envs.docs.scripts]\nbuild = \"mkdocs build --clean --strict\"\nserve = \"mkdocs serve --dev-addr localhost:8000\"\n

you could then serve your documentation by running:

hatch run docs:serve\n

Tip

If you've already entered an environment, commands will target it by default.

"},{"location":"environment/#matrix","title":"Matrix","text":"

Every environment can define its own set of matrices:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.envs.test]\ndependencies = [\n  \"pytest\"\n]\n\n[[tool.hatch.envs.test.matrix]]\npython = [\"2.7\", \"3.8\"]\nversion = [\"42\", \"3.14\"]\n\n[[tool.hatch.envs.test.matrix]]\npython = [\"3.8\", \"3.9\"]\nversion = [\"9000\"]\nfeatures = [\"foo\", \"bar\"]\n
[envs.test]\ndependencies = [\n  \"pytest\"\n]\n\n[[envs.test.matrix]]\npython = [\"2.7\", \"3.8\"]\nversion = [\"42\", \"3.14\"]\n\n[[envs.test.matrix]]\npython = [\"3.8\", \"3.9\"]\nversion = [\"9000\"]\nfeatures = [\"foo\", \"bar\"]\n

Using the env show command would then display:

The last step of the setup process is to define any dependencies that you'd like your project to begin with.

"},{"location":"intro/#configuration","title":"Configuration","text":"

All project-specific configuration recognized by Hatch can be defined in either the pyproject.toml file, or a file named hatch.toml where options are not contained within the tool.hatch table:

option = \"...\"\n\n[table1]\noption = \"...\"\n\n[table2]\noption = \"...\"\n

Top level keys in the latter file take precedence when defined in both.

Tip

If you want to make your file more compact, you can use dotted keys, turning the above example into:

You can select the repository with which to upload using the -r/--repo option or by setting the HATCH_INDEX_REPO environment variable.

Rather than specifying the full URL of a repository, you can use a named repository from a publish.index.repos table defined in Hatch's config file:

config.toml
[publish.index.repos.private]\nurl = \"...\"\n...\n

The following repository names are reserved by Hatch and cannot be overridden:

Name Repository main https://upload.pypi.org/legacy/ test https://test.pypi.org/legacy/

The main repository is used by default.

"},{"location":"publish/#authentication","title":"Authentication","text":"

The first time you publish to a repository you need to authenticate using the -u/--user (environment variable HATCH_INDEX_USER) and -a/--auth (environment variable HATCH_INDEX_AUTH) options. You will be prompted if either option is not provided.

The user that most recently published to the chosen repository is cached, with their credentials saved to the system keyring, so that they will no longer need to provide authentication information.

For automated releasing to PyPI, it is recommended that you use per-project API tokens.

"},{"location":"publish/#confirmation","title":"Confirmation","text":"

You can require a confirmation prompt or use of the -y/--yes flag by setting publishers' disable option to true in either Hatch's config file or project-specific configuration (which takes precedence):

"},{"location":"version/","title":"Versioning","text":""},{"location":"version/#configuration","title":"Configuration","text":"

When the version is not statically set, configuration is defined in the tool.hatch.version table. The source option determines the source to use for retrieving and updating the version. The regex source is used by default.

The regex source requires an option path that represents a relative path to a file containing the project's version:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.version]\npath = \"src/hatch_demo/__about__.py\"\n
[version]\npath = \"src/hatch_demo/__about__.py\"\n

The default pattern looks for a variable named __version__ or VERSION that is set to a string containing the version, optionally prefixed with the lowercase letter v.

If this doesn't reflect how you store the version, you can define a different regular expression using the pattern option:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.version]\npath = \"pkg/__init__.py\"\npattern = \"BUILD = 'b(?P<version>[^']+)'\"\n
[version]\npath = \"pkg/__init__.py\"\npattern = \"BUILD = 'b(?P<version>[^']+)'\"\n

The pattern must have a named group called version that represents the version.

The scheme option determines the scheme to use for parsing both the existing and new versions. The standard scheme is used by default, which is based on PEP 440.

Rather than setting the version explicitly, you can select the name of a segment used to increment the version:

$ hatch version minor\nOld: 0.1.0\nNew: 0.2.0\n

You can chain multiple segment updates with a comma. For example, if you wanted to release a preview of your project's first major version, you could do:

$ hatch version major,rc\nOld: 0.2.0\nNew: 1.0.0rc0\n

The high level value proposition of Hatch is that if one adopts all functionality then many other tools become unnecessary since there is support for everything one might require. Further, if one chooses to use only specific features then there are still benefits compared to alternatives.

"},{"location":"why/#build-backend","title":"Build backend","text":"

Hatchling, the build backend sister project, has many benefits compared to setuptools. Here we only compare setuptools as that is the one most people are familiar with.

Why not?:

If building extension modules is required then it is recommended that you continue using setuptools, or even other backends that specialize in interfacing with compilers.

"},{"location":"why/#environment-management","title":"Environment management","text":"

Here we compare to both tox and nox. At a high level, there are a few common advantages:

Why not?:

If you are using nox and you wish to migrate, and for some reason you notify sessions, then migration wouldn't be a straight translation but rather you might have to redesign that conditional step.

"},{"location":"why/#python-management","title":"Python management","text":"

Here we compare Python management to that of pyenv.

Why not?:

Currently, Hatch does not allow for the installation of specific patch release versions but rather only uses minor release granularity that tracks the latest patch release. If specific patch releases are important to you then it is best to use an alternative installation mechanism.

Hatch v1.6.0 brings improvements to build environments, better handling of dynamic metadata, and support for tools like Visual Studio Code.

"},{"location":"blog/2022/10/08/hatch-v160/#build-environments","title":"Build environments","text":"

Originally, the environment interface method for providing builder sub-environments was intended to be used in conjunction with some cleanup logic in order to provide a fresh setup every time. However, this is unnecessary in practice because build dependencies rarely change.

Without caching, repeat build environment use is slow which affects the following scenarios:

Now a new environment interface method build_environment_exists is used by Hatch to determine whether or not it has already been created, for implementations that have a caching mechanism.

The virtual environment type now uses this method to cache build environments.

"},{"location":"blog/2022/10/08/hatch-v160/#project-metadata","title":"Project metadata","text":"

Dynamically defined metadata is now supported everywhere, thanks to the new caching of virtual build environments.

A project metadata command is introduced that displays the fully resolved metadata. The output format is JSON unless a field is specified as an argument.

For example, if you checkout a project that is built by Hatch, like FastAPI, and run:

hatch project metadata readme\n

only the readme text will be displayed. If the content is in Markdown, then Rich will render it directly in your terminal:

"},{"location":"blog/2022/10/08/hatch-v160/#virtual-environment-location","title":"Virtual environment location","text":"

The virtual environment type now uses a flat layout for storage in the configured virtual environment directory if the directory resides somewhere within the project root or if it is set to a .virtualenvs directory within the user's home directory.

For example, if you define the following Hatch configuration:

config.toml
[dirs.env]\nvirtual = \".hatch\"\n

and the following matrix:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[[tool.hatch.envs.test.matrix]]\npython = [\"3.7\", \"3.8\", \"3.9\", \"3.10\", \"3.11\"]\n
[[envs.test.matrix]]\npython = [\"3.7\", \"3.8\", \"3.9\", \"3.10\", \"3.11\"]\n

then locating environments with the following command:

hatch env find test\n

will show that the general directory structure is:

.hatch\n\u251c\u2500\u2500 test.py3.7\n\u251c\u2500\u2500 test.py3.8\n\u251c\u2500\u2500 test.py3.9\n\u251c\u2500\u2500 test.py3.10\n\u2514\u2500\u2500 test.py3.11\n

This flat structure is required for detection of virtual environments by tools like Visual Studio Code and PyCharm.

Additionally, the virtual environment type now supports a path option to specify an explicit path that all inherited environments will share, such as the common .venv.

A common pattern we use in Jupyter is to bump to a .dev0 minor version bump after making a release. If we have a bug fix that needs to go out in the interim, we'd rather not be forced to create a branch every time.

Hatch v1.8.0 brings Python distribution management, static analysis and formatting backed by Ruff, and binaries for every platform.

"},{"location":"blog/2023/12/11/hatch-v180/#installation-made-easy","title":"Installation made easy","text":"

One thing that has been a perpetual problem for Hatch and other Python applications is that Python itself is a dependency. You, and more importantly your users, need to in some way get Python before your software can even be used. The recommended way to go about that is platform-dependent and even differs based on your target audience. I viewed this as a central UX problem for Hatch and so severe that I took a bit of a hiatus to solve it.

Luckily, I have to my satisfaction solved this problem in the form of PyApp. It is a runtime installer for Python projects written in Rust. Apps are distributed as standalone executables as users have come to expect and bootstrapping occurs upon the first invocation. Here is an example of what you would see the first time you run a binary from this release:

Now that we have binaries, creating installers for different platforms becomes trivial. Starting with this release not only are binaries available for every platform but also we have installers for Windows and macOS. The installer for macOS is signed using a certificate from the same account used to sign the official distributions from https://www.python.org, so users will not get any security pop-ups. Shout out to @ewdurbin for their extreme generosity in setting up multiple certificates in their free time!

These installers and binaries are now the recommended way to install and update Hatch. These binaries have built-in management so you can update to the latest version by running hatch self update.

Windows signing

In future we will sign the installers for Windows but I did not have time to look into how that works. macOS signing took way longer than I anticipated

"},{"location":"blog/2023/12/11/hatch-v180/#python-management","title":"Python management","text":"

For a long time I and other users have desired that Hatch gain the ability to manage Python distributions. In my mind this was always blocked on a better installation experience because there was sort of a chicken-or-egg problem where you want a Python manager but you first need Python. No longer is that the case!

The new python command group allows for easy installation of various distributions to arbitrary locations which are then added to your PATH by default. Hatch supports CPython and PyPy distributions:

"},{"location":"blog/2023/12/11/hatch-v180/#virtual-environment-python-resolution","title":"Virtual environment Python resolution","text":"

The virtual environment type is now far more intelligent when resolving the parent distribution to use and guarantees that, when no specific version is requested, the resolved distribution will always be compatible with the project.

Additionally, when a requested version cannot be found on PATH it will automatically be downloaded and managed internally.

"},{"location":"blog/2023/12/11/hatch-v180/#static-analysis","title":"Static analysis","text":"

There is a new fmt command, backed entirely by Ruff, that checks and fixes your code for formatting and linting issues.

Starting with this release, Hatch maintains default settings that are guaranteed to be up-to-date and represent best practices for programming in modern Python. The idea is to provide defaults that are so broadly applicable that the majority of users will maintain little if any of their own overrides.

The default behavior is internal management of settings to provide an OOTB experience that works. It is recommended however that you persist the default config file in version control so that other tools like IDEs can utilize your full configuration.

Since Ruff is now provided as a built-in feature, new project templates no longer have such configuration and are much less verbose.

"},{"location":"blog/2023/12/11/hatch-v180/#build-improvements","title":"Build improvements","text":"

Building projects that do not use Hatchling as a backend is now supported and such builds are managed with the standard build tool.

The bridge between Hatch and the Hatchling CLI has been removed. Previously, the builder would send serialized messages to Hatch that would contain the desired content and style for each line of output. This was done in an effort to allow builder and build hook plugins to output pretty messages without actually requiring a dependency like Rich. A problem that arises with this is that builders that invoke subprocesses will not display ANSI codes as one might expect and will lose out on the interactive experience of such invocations, like the built-in app builder plugin calling cargo build. So now everything is simpler at the expense of no colored output without manual logic, or adding a dependency if you're a third-party plugin.

"},{"location":"blog/2023/12/11/hatch-v180/#faster-environment-usage","title":"Faster environment usage","text":"

Spawning a shell or running commands within environments always first checks that your project's dependencies are satisfied and if not synchronizes the environment with what is defined. Previously, this had the potential to be quite slow for projects that have many dependencies.

Now the set of dependency definitions is hashed and no check is performed if the hash is the same as before, significantly speeding up environment usage in most cases.

Upcoming features include a test command, commands to manage dependencies, and workspaces functionality similar to Cargo that will make managing monorepos far easier.

Next year there will be two large efforts that you should expect to see:

  1. A significant amount of my free time (and some at work) will be devoted to introducing lock file functionality in Hatch and trying to get whatever that happens to be standardized.

    I met with @brettcannon about his thoughts post-PEP 665 and about mousebender. I also met with the prefix.dev team about rip and was fortunate enough to be shown a demo before its official announcement.

    At the moment, the two options I see are to either go all in and contribute to mousebender or rely on the Prefix folks and use rip. The latter has the benefit of potentially supporting Conda as a side effect with the downside of being quite new with the spec firmly out of our control. The former has the benefit of being able to easily gain institutional support from the Python packaging team and each of our employers with the downside being a significant amount of work needing to be done.

  2. When @henryiii is able to get some free time away from teaching I plan to work with him once again and push very hard for the Python build ecosystem to adopt the extensionlib approach.

    I am of the opinion that the Python community has not fully completed the expressed outcome of PEP 517 in that build backends are still (for the most part) reliant on setuptools for building non-Python code bases.

    Basically, there are components that interact with compilers to produce extension modules and components that pack files into an archive which we call a build backend. These are two distinct pieces of functionality and my view is that there should be an API that allows backends to consume extension module builders to find out where things got created and where they should be shipped inside archives.

    In this hypothetical future any build backend would be able to trigger the building of extension modules based on user configuration.

The default version of Ruff has been increased to v0.1.8. This release brings formatting capabilities to docstrings and Hatch enables this by default with line length set to 80. This length was chosen as the default because it plays nicely with the rendering of the most popular themes for Python documentation, such as Material for MkDocs and Furo.

Additionally, it is now possible for projects to pin to specific versions of Ruff for upgrading at a later time:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml

[build-system]\nrequires = [\"hatchling\"]\nbuild-backend = \"hatchling.build\"\n

The version of hatchling defined here will be used to build all targets.

Hatchling is a standards-compliant1 build backend and is a dependency of Hatch itself.

"},{"location":"config/build/#file-selection","title":"File selection","text":""},{"location":"config/build/#vcs","title":"VCS","text":"

By default, Hatch will respect the first .gitignore or .hgignore file found in your project's root directory or parent directories. Set ignore-vcs to true to disable this behavior:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.sdist]\nignore-vcs = true\n
[build.targets.sdist]\nignore-vcs = true\n

Note

For .hgignore files only glob syntax is supported.

"},{"location":"config/build/#patterns","title":"Patterns","text":"

You can set the include and exclude options to select exactly which files will be shipped in each build, with exclude taking precedence. Every entry represents a Git-style glob pattern.

For example, the following configuration:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.sdist]\ninclude = [\n  \"pkg/*.py\",\n  \"/tests\",\n]\nexclude = [\n  \"*.json\",\n  \"pkg/_compat.py\",\n]\n
[build.targets.sdist]\ninclude = [\n  \"pkg/*.py\",\n  \"/tests\",\n]\nexclude = [\n  \"*.json\",\n  \"pkg/_compat.py\",\n]\n

will exclude every file with a .json extension, and will include everything under a tests directory located at the root and every file with a .py extension that is directly under a pkg directory located at the root except for _compat.py.

"},{"location":"config/build/#artifacts","title":"Artifacts","text":"

If you want to include files that are ignored by your VCS, such as those that might be created by build hooks, you can use the artifacts option. This option is semantically equivalent to include.

Note that artifacts are not affected by the exclude option. Artifacts can be excluded by using more explicit paths or by using the ! negation operator. When using the ! operator, the negated pattern(s) must come after the more generic ones.

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel]\nartifacts = [\n  \"*.so\",\n  \"*.dll\",\n  \"!/foo/*.so\",\n]\n
[build.targets.wheel]\nartifacts = [\n  \"*.so\",\n  \"*.dll\",\n  \"!/foo/*.so\",\n]\n
"},{"location":"config/build/#explicit-selection","title":"Explicit selection","text":""},{"location":"config/build/#generic","title":"Generic","text":"

You can use the only-include option to prevent directory traversal starting at the project root and only select specific relative paths to directories or files. Using this option ignores any defined include patterns.

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.sdist]\nonly-include = [\"pkg\", \"tests/unit\"]\n
[build.targets.sdist]\nonly-include = [\"pkg\", \"tests/unit\"]\n
"},{"location":"config/build/#packages","title":"Packages","text":"

The packages option is semantically equivalent to only-include (which takes precedence) except that the shipped path will be collapsed to only include the final component.

So for example, if you want to ship a package foo that is stored in a directory src you would do:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel]\npackages = [\"src/foo\"]\n
[build.targets.wheel]\npackages = [\"src/foo\"]\n
"},{"location":"config/build/#forced-inclusion","title":"Forced inclusion","text":"

The force-include option allows you to select specific files or directories from anywhere on the file system that should be included and map them to the desired relative distribution path.

For example, if there was a directory alongside the project root named artifacts containing a file named lib.so and a file named lib.h in your home directory, you could ship both files in a pkg directory with the following configuration:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel.force-include]\n\"../artifacts\" = \"pkg\"\n\"~/lib.h\" = \"pkg/lib.h\"\n
[build.targets.wheel.force-include]\n\"../artifacts\" = \"pkg\"\n\"~/lib.h\" = \"pkg/lib.h\"\n

Note

Warning

Files included using this option will overwrite any file path that was already included by other file selection options.

"},{"location":"config/build/#default-file-selection","title":"Default file selection","text":"

If no file selection options are provided, then what gets included is determined by each build target.

"},{"location":"config/build/#excluding-files-outside-packages","title":"Excluding files outside packages","text":"

If you want to exclude non-artifact files that do not reside within a Python package, set only-packages to true:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel]\nonly-packages = true\n
[build.targets.wheel]\nonly-packages = true\n
"},{"location":"config/build/#rewriting-paths","title":"Rewriting paths","text":"

You can rewrite relative paths to directories with the sources option. For example, the following configuration:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel.sources]\n\"src/foo\" = \"bar\"\n
[build.targets.wheel.sources]\n\"src/foo\" = \"bar\"\n

would distribute the file src/foo/file.ext as bar/file.ext.

If you want to remove path prefixes entirely, rather than setting each to an empty string, you can define sources as an array:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel]\nsources = [\"src\"]\n
[build.targets.wheel]\nsources = [\"src\"]\n

If you want to add a prefix to paths, you can use an empty string. For example, the following configuration:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel.sources]\n\"\" = \"foo\"\n
[build.targets.wheel.sources]\n\"\" = \"foo\"\n

would distribute the file bar/file.ext as foo/bar/file.ext.

The packages option itself relies on sources. Defining packages = [\"src/foo\"] for the wheel target is equivalent to the following:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel]\nonly-include = [\"src/foo\"]\nsources = [\"src\"]\n
[build.targets.wheel]\nonly-include = [\"src/foo\"]\nsources = [\"src\"]\n
"},{"location":"config/build/#performance","title":"Performance","text":"

All encountered directories are traversed by default. To skip non-artifact directories that are excluded, set skip-excluded-dirs to true:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build]\nskip-excluded-dirs = true\n
[build]\nskip-excluded-dirs = true\n

Warning

This may result in not shipping desired files. For example, if you want to include the file a/b/c.txt but your VCS ignores a/b, the file c.txt will not be seen because its parent directory will not be entered. In such cases you can use the force-include option.

"},{"location":"config/build/#reproducible-builds","title":"Reproducible builds","text":"

By default, build targets will build in a reproducible manner provided that they support that behavior. To disable this, set reproducible to false:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build]\nreproducible = false\n
[build]\nreproducible = false\n

When enabled, the SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH environment variable will be used for all build timestamps. If not set, then Hatch will use an unchanging default value.

"},{"location":"config/build/#output-directory","title":"Output directory","text":"

When the output directory is not provided to the build command, the dist directory will be used by default. You can change the default to a different directory using a relative or absolute path like so:

[build]\ndirectory = \"<PATH>\"\n
"},{"location":"config/build/#dev-mode","title":"Dev mode","text":"

By default for dev mode environment installations or editable installs, the wheel target will determine which directories should be added to Python's search path based on the selected files.

If you want to override this detection or perhaps instruct other build targets as well, you can use the dev-mode-dirs option:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build]\ndev-mode-dirs = [\".\"]\n
[build]\ndev-mode-dirs = [\".\"]\n

If you don't want to add entire directories to Python's search path, you can enable a more targeted mechanism with the mutually exclusive dev-mode-exact option:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build]\ndev-mode-exact = true\n
[build]\ndev-mode-exact = true\n

Warning

The dev-mode-exact mechanism is not supported by static analysis tools & IDEs, therefore functionality such as autocompletion is unlikely to work.

Project dependencies are defined with PEP 508 strings using optional PEP 440 version specifiers.

A version specifier consists of a series of version clauses, separated by commas. For example:

pyproject.toml
[project]\n...\ndependencies = [\n  \"cryptography\",\n  \"click>=7, <9, != 8.0.0\",\n  \"python-dateutil==2.8.*\",\n  \"numpy~=1.21.4\",\n]\n

A version matching clause includes the version matching operator == and a version identifier.

By default, the version matching operator is based on a strict equality comparison: the specified version must be exactly the same as the requested version.

Clause Allowed versions ==1 1.0.0 ==1.2 1.2.0

Prefix matching may be requested instead of strict comparison, by appending a trailing .* to the version identifier in the version matching clause. This means that additional trailing segments will be ignored when determining whether or not a version identifier matches the clause.

Clause Allowed versions ==1.* >=1.0.0, <2.0.0 ==1.2.* >=1.2.0, <1.3.0"},{"location":"config/dependency/#compatible-release","title":"Compatible release","text":"

A compatible release clause consists of the compatible release operator ~= and a version identifier. It matches any candidate version that is expected to be compatible with the specified version.

For a given release identifier V.N, the compatible release clause is approximately equivalent to the following pair of comparison clauses:

>= V.N, == V.*\n

This operator cannot be used with a single segment version number such as ~=1.

Clause Allowed versions ~=1.2 >=1.2.0, <2.0.0 ~=1.2.3 >=1.2.3, <1.3.0"},{"location":"config/dependency/#version-exclusion","title":"Version exclusion","text":"

Inclusive comparisons allow for the version identifier part of clauses whereas exclusive comparisons do not. For example, >=1.2 allows for version 1.2.0 while >1.2 does not.

Environment markers allow for dependencies to only be installed when certain conditions are met.

For example, if you need to install the latest version of cryptography that is available for a given Python major version you could define the following:

Alternatively, if you only need it on Python 3 when running on Windows you could do:

cryptography; python_version ~= \"3.0\" and platform_system == \"Windows\"\n

The available environment markers are as follows.

Note

When not persisting config, there is no need to explicitly extend the defaults as Hatch automatically handles that.

"},{"location":"config/static-analysis/#persistent-config","title":"Persistent config","text":"

If you want to store the default configuration in the project, set an explicit path like so:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.envs.hatch-static-analysis]\nconfig-path = \"ruff_defaults.toml\"\n
[envs.hatch-static-analysis]\nconfig-path = \"ruff_defaults.toml\"\n

Then instruct Ruff to consider your configuration as an extension of the default file:

pyproject.toml ruff.toml
[tool.ruff]\nextend = \"ruff_defaults.toml\"\n
extend = \"ruff_defaults.toml\"\n

Anytime you wish to update the defaults (such as when upgrading Hatch), you must run the fmt command once with the --sync flag e.g.:

hatch fmt --check --sync\n

Tip

This is the recommended approach since it allows other tools like IDEs to use the default configuration.

All environments support the following extra context formatting fields:

Field Description env_name The name of the environment env_type The type of environment matrix Its modifier selects the value of that matrix variable. If the environment is not part of a matrix or was not generated with the variable, you must specify a default value as an additional modifier e.g. {matrix:version:v1.0.0}. verbosity The integer verbosity value of Hatch. A flag modifier is supported that will render the value as a CLI flag e.g. -2 becomes -qq, 1 becomes -v, and 0 becomes an empty string. An additional flag integer modifier may be used to adjust the verbosity level. For example, if you wanted to make a command quiet by default, you could use {verbosity:flag:-1} within the command. args For executed commands only, any extra command line arguments with an optional default modifier if none were provided"},{"location":"config/environment/advanced/#matrix","title":"Matrix","text":"

Environments can define a series of matrices with the matrix option:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.envs.test]\ndependencies = [\n  \"pytest\"\n]\n\n[[tool.hatch.envs.test.matrix]]\npython = [\"2.7\", \"3.8\"]\nversion = [\"42\", \"3.14\"]\n\n[[tool.hatch.envs.test.matrix]]\npython = [\"3.8\", \"3.9\"]\nversion = [\"9000\"]\nfeature = [\"foo\", \"bar\"]\n

Doing so will result in the product of each variable combination being its own environment.

"},{"location":"config/environment/advanced/#naming","title":"Naming","text":"

The name of the generated environments will be the variable values of each combination separated by hyphens, altogether prefixed by <ENV_NAME>.. For example, the following configuration:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[[tool.hatch.envs.test.matrix]]\nversion = [\"42\"]\nfeature = [\"foo\", \"bar\"]\n
[[envs.test.matrix]]\nversion = [\"42\"]\nfeature = [\"foo\", \"bar\"]\n

would indicate the following unique environments:

test.42-foo\ntest.42-bar\n

The exceptions to this format are described below.

"},{"location":"config/environment/advanced/#python-variables","title":"Python variables","text":"

If the variables py or python are specified, then they will rank first in the product result and will be prefixed by py if the value is not. For example, the following configuration:

[[envs.test.matrix]]\nversion = [\"42\"]\npython = [\"3.9\", \"pypy3\"]\n

would generate the following environments:

test.py3.9-42\ntest.pypy3-42\n

Note

The value of this variable sets the Python version.

"},{"location":"config/environment/advanced/#name-formatting","title":"Name formatting","text":"

You can set the matrix-name-format option to modify how each variable part is formatted which recognizes the placeholders {variable} and {value}. For example, the following configuration:

By default this option is set to {value}.

"},{"location":"config/environment/advanced/#default-environment","title":"Default environment","text":"

If the default environment defines matrices, then the generated names will not be prefixed by the environment name. This can be useful for projects that only need a single series of matrices without any standalone environments.

"},{"location":"config/environment/advanced/#selection","title":"Selection","text":"

Rather than selecting a single generated environment, you can select the root environment to target all of them. For example, if you have the following configuration:

By default, environments will install your project during creation. To ignore this step, set skip-install to true:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.envs.lint]\nskip-install = true\n
[envs.lint]\nskip-install = true\n
"},{"location":"config/environment/overview/#environment-variables","title":"Environment variables","text":""},{"location":"config/environment/overview/#defined","title":"Defined","text":"

You can define environment variables with the env-vars option:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.envs.docs]\ndependencies = [\n  \"mkdocs\"\n]\n[tool.hatch.envs.docs.env-vars]\nSOURCE_DATE_EPOCH = \"1580601600\"\n
[envs.docs]\ndependencies = [\n  \"mkdocs\"\n]\n[envs.docs.env-vars]\nSOURCE_DATE_EPOCH = \"1580601600\"\n

Values support context formatting.

"},{"location":"config/environment/overview/#filters","title":"Filters","text":"

By default, environments will have access to all environment variables. You can filter with wildcard patterns using the env-include/env-exclude options:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.envs.<ENV_NAME>]\nenv-include = [\n  \"FOO*\",\n]\nenv-exclude = [\n  \"BAR\",\n]\n
[envs.<ENV_NAME>]\nenv-include = [\n  \"FOO*\",\n]\nenv-exclude = [\n  \"BAR\",\n]\n

Exclusion patterns take precedence but will never affect defined environment variables.

"},{"location":"config/environment/overview/#scripts","title":"Scripts","text":"

You can define named scripts that may be executed or referenced at the beginning of other scripts. Context formatting is supported.

For example, in the following configuration:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.envs.test]\ndependencies = [\n  \"coverage[toml]\",\n  \"pytest\",\n  \"pytest-cov\",\n  \"pytest-mock\",\n]\n[tool.hatch.envs.test.scripts]\nrun-coverage = \"pytest --cov-config=pyproject.toml --cov=pkg --cov=tests\"\nrun = \"run-coverage --no-cov\"\n
[envs.test]\ndependencies = [\n  \"coverage[toml]\",\n  \"pytest\",\n  \"pytest-cov\",\n  \"pytest-mock\",\n]\n[envs.test.scripts]\nrun-coverage = \"pytest --cov-config=pyproject.toml --cov=pkg --cov=tests\"\nrun = \"run-coverage --no-cov\"\n

the run script would be expanded to:

pytest --cov-config=pyproject.toml --cov=pkg --cov=tests --no-cov\n

Scripts can also be defined as an array of strings.

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.envs.style]\ndetached = true\ndependencies = [\n  \"flake8\",\n  \"black\",\n  \"isort\",\n]\n[tool.hatch.envs.style.scripts]\ncheck = [\n  \"flake8 .\",\n  \"black --check --diff .\",\n  \"isort --check-only --diff .\",\n]\nfmt = [\n  \"isort .\",\n  \"black .\",\n  \"check\",\n]\n
[envs.style]\ndetached = true\ndependencies = [\n  \"flake8\",\n  \"black\",\n  \"isort\",\n]\n[envs.style.scripts]\ncheck = [\n  \"flake8 .\",\n  \"black --check --diff .\",\n  \"isort --check-only --diff .\",\n]\nfmt = [\n  \"isort .\",\n  \"black .\",\n  \"check\",\n]\n

Similar to make, you can ignore the exit code of commands that start with - (a hyphen). For example, the script error defined by the following configuration would halt after the second command with 3 as the exit code:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.envs.test.scripts]\nerror = [\n  \"- exit 1\",\n  \"exit 3\",\n  \"exit 0\",\n]\n
[envs.test.scripts]\nerror = [\n  \"- exit 1\",\n  \"exit 3\",\n  \"exit 0\",\n]\n

Tip

Individual scripts inherit from parent environments just like options.

This is the initial public release of the Hatchling build system. Support for Python 2 will be dropped in version 1.

"},{"location":"how-to/environment/package-indices/","title":"Package indices","text":"

Most Hatch environment types, like the default virtual, simply use pip to install dependencies. Therefore, you can use the standard environment variables that influence pip's behavior to choose where to search for packages.

Here's an example of setting up the default environment to look at 2 private indices (using context formatting for authentication) before finally falling back to PyPI:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.envs.default.env-vars]\nPIP_INDEX_URL = \"https://token:{env:GITLAB_API_TOKEN}@gitlab.com/api/v4/groups/<group1_path>/-/packages/pypi/simple/\"\nPIP_EXTRA_INDEX_URL = \"https://token:{env:GITLAB_API_TOKEN}@gitlab.com/api/v4/groups/<group2_path>/-/packages/pypi/simple/ https://pypi.org/simple/\"\n
[envs.default.env-vars]\nPIP_INDEX_URL = \"https://token:{env:GITLAB_API_TOKEN}@gitlab.com/api/v4/groups/<group1_path>/-/packages/pypi/simple/\"\nPIP_EXTRA_INDEX_URL = \"https://token:{env:GITLAB_API_TOKEN}@gitlab.com/api/v4/groups/<group2_path>/-/packages/pypi/simple/ https://pypi.org/simple/\"\n
"},{"location":"how-to/plugins/testing-builds/","title":"Testing builds","text":"

For testing Hatchling plugins, you'll usually want to generate a project to execute builds as a real user would. For example, as a minimal pytest fixture:

from pathlib import Path\n\nimport pytest\n\n\n@pytest.fixture\ndef new_project(tmp_path):\n    project_dir = tmp_path / 'my-app'\n    project_dir.mkdir()\n\n    project_file = project_dir / 'pyproject.toml'\n    project_file.write_text(\n        f\"\"\"\\\n[build-system]\nrequires = [\"hatchling\", \"hatch-plugin-name @ {Path.cwd().as_uri()}\"]\nbuild-backend = \"hatchling.build\"\n\n[project]\nname = \"my-app\"\nversion = \"0.1.0\"\n\"\"\",\n        encoding='utf-8',\n    )\n    ...\n

The issue with this is that after the first test session, the project will be forever cached by pip based on the file path. Therefore, subsequent tests runs will never use updated code.

To invalidate the cache, copy your code to a new path for every test session:

import shutil\nfrom pathlib import Path\nfrom tempfile import TemporaryDirectory\n\nimport pytest\n\n\n@pytest.fixture(scope='session')\ndef plugin_dir():\n    with TemporaryDirectory() as d:\n        directory = Path(d, 'plugin')\n        shutil.copytree(\n            Path.cwd(), directory, ignore=shutil.ignore_patterns('.git')\n        )\n\n        yield directory.resolve()\n\n\n@pytest.fixture\ndef new_project(tmp_path, plugin_dir):\n    project_dir = tmp_path / 'my-app'\n    project_dir.mkdir()\n\n    project_file = project_dir / 'pyproject.toml'\n    project_file.write_text(\n        f\"\"\"\\\n[build-system]\nrequires = [\"hatchling\", \"hatch-plugin-name @ {plugin_dir.as_uri()}\"]\nbuild-backend = \"hatchling.build\"\n\n[project]\nname = \"my-app\"\nversion = \"0.1.0\"\n\"\"\",\n        encoding='utf-8',\n    )\n    ...\n

Note

This example chooses to ignore copying .git for performance reasons. You may want to ignore more patterns, or copy only specific paths like this plugin does.

Q: What is the risk of lock-in?

A: Not much! Other than the plugin system, everything uses Python's established standards by default. Project metadata is based entirely on the standard, the build system is compatible with PEP 517/PEP 660, versioning uses the scheme specified by PEP 440, dependencies are defined with PEP 508 strings, and environments use virtualenv.

Q: Must one use all features?

A: No, all features are optional! You can use just the build system, publish wheels and source distributions that were built by other tools, only use the environment management, etc.

"},{"location":"meta/faq/#libraries-vs-applications","title":"Libraries vs applications","text":"

Q: Are workflows for both libraries and applications supported?

A: Yes, mostly! Applications can utilize environment management just like libraries, and plugins can be used to build projects in arbitrary formats or publish artifacts to arbitrary destinations.

The only caveat is that currently there is no support for re-creating an environment given a set of dependencies in a reproducible manner. Although a standard lock file format may be far off since [PEP 665][] was rejected, resolving capabilities are coming to pip. When that is stabilized, Hatch will add locking functionality and dedicated documentation for managing applications.

Each registration hook must be decorated by Hatch's hook marker. For example, if you wanted to create a new kind of environment you could do:

hooks.py
from hatchling.plugin import hookimpl\n\nfrom .plugin import SpecialEnvironment\n\n\n@hookimpl\ndef hatch_register_environment():\n    return SpecialEnvironment\n

The hooks can return a single class or a list of classes.

Every class must define an attribute called PLUGIN_NAME that users will select when they wish to use the plugin. So in the example above, the class might be defined like:

plugin.py
...\nclass SpecialEnvironment(...):\n    PLUGIN_NAME = 'special'\n    ...\n

You'll need to define your project as a Python plugin for Hatch:

Build data is a simple mapping whose contents can influence the behavior of builds. Which fields exist and are recognized depends on each build target.

The following fields are always present and recognized by the build system itself:

Field Type Description artifacts list[str] This is a list of extra artifact patterns and should generally only be appended to force_include dict[str, str] This is a mapping of extra forced inclusion paths, with this mapping taking precedence in case of conflicts build_hooks tuple[str, ...] This is an immutable sequence of the names of the configured build hooks and matches the order in which they run

Attention

While user-facing TOML options are hyphenated, build data fields should be named with underscores to allow plugins to use them as valid Python identifiers.

In some cases it may be necessary to use force_include rather than artifacts. For example, say that you want to install a lib.so directly at the root of site-packages and a project defines a package src/foo. If you create src/lib.so, there will never be a match because the directory traversal starts at src/foo rather than src. In that case you must do either:

build_data['force_include']['src/lib.so'] = 'src/lib.so'\n

or

build_data['force_include']['/absolute/path/to/src/lib.so'] = 'src/lib.so'\n

The location of environments is determined in the following heuristic order:

  1. The path option
  2. A directory named after the environment within the configured virtual environment directory if the directory resides somewhere within the project root or if it is set to a .virtualenvs directory within the user's home directory
  3. Otherwise, environments are stored within the configured virtual environment directory in a deeply nested structure in order to support multiple projects

Additionally, when the path option is not used, the name of the directory for the default environment will be the normalized project name to provide a more meaningful default shell prompt.

"},{"location":"plugins/environment/virtual/#python-resolution","title":"Python resolution","text":"

Virtual environments necessarily require a parent installation of Python. The following rules determine how the parent is resolved.

The Python choice is determined by the python option followed by the HATCH_PYTHON environment variable. If the choice is via the environment variable, then resolution stops and that path is used unconditionally.

The resolvers will be based on the python-sources option and all resolved interpreters will ensure compatibility with the project's defined Python support.

If a Python version has been chosen then each resolver will try to find an interpreter that satisfies that version.

If no version has been chosen, then each resolver will try to find a version that matches the version of Python that Hatch is currently running on. If not found then each resolver will try to find the highest compatible version.

Note

Some external Python paths are considered unstable and are ignored during resolution. For example, if Hatch is installed via Homebrew then sys.executable will be ignored because the interpreter could change or be removed at any time.

Note

When resolution finds a match using an internally managed distribution and an update is available, the latest distribution will automatically be downloaded before environment creation.

If you need to set linker environment variables like those starting with DYLD_ or LD_, any executable secured by System Integrity Protection that is invoked when running commands will not see those environment variable modifications as macOS strips those.

Hatch interprets such commands as shell commands but deliberately ignores such paths to protected shells. This workaround suffices for the majority of use cases but there are 2 situations in which it may not:

  1. There are no unprotected sh, bash, zsh, nor fish executables found along PATH.
  2. The desired executable is a project's script, and the location of environments contains spaces or is longer than 1241 characters. In this case pip and other installers will create such an entry point with a shebang pointing to /bin/sh (which is protected) to avoid shebang limitations. Rather than changing the location, you could invoke the script as e.g. python -m pytest (if the project supports that method of invocation by shipping a __main__.py).

Builds are configured using the tool.hatch.build table. Every target is defined by a section within tool.hatch.build.targets, for example:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.sdist]\nexclude = [\n  \"/.github\",\n  \"/docs\",\n]\n\n[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel]\npackages = [\"src/foo\"]\n

"},{"location":"build/#building","title":"Building","text":"

Invoking the build command without any arguments will build the sdist and wheel targets:

$ hatch build\n[sdist]\ndist/hatch_demo-1rc0.tar.gz\n\n[wheel]\ndist/hatch_demo-1rc0-py3-none-any.whl\n

To only build specific targets, use the -t/--target option:

$ hatch build -t wheel\n[wheel]\ndist/hatch_demo-1rc0-py3-none-any.whl\n

If the target supports multiple versions, you can specify the exact versions to build by appending a colon followed by the desired versions separated by commas:

$ hatch -v build -t wheel:standard\n[wheel]\nBuilding `wheel` version `standard`\ndist/hatch_demo-1rc0-py3-none-any.whl\n
"},{"location":"build/#packaging-ecosystem","title":"Packaging ecosystem","text":"

Hatch complies with modern Python packaging specs and therefore your projects can be used by other tools with Hatch serving as just the build backend.

So you could use tox as an alternative to Hatch's environment management, or cibuildwheel to distribute packages for every platform, and they both will transparently use Hatch without any extra modification.

"},{"location":"environment/","title":"Environments","text":"

Environments are designed to allow for isolated workspaces for testing, building documentation, or anything else projects need.

Unless an environment is chosen explicitly, Hatch will use the default environment.

"},{"location":"environment/#creation","title":"Creation","text":"

You can create environments by using the env create command. Let's enter the directory of the project we created in the setup phase:

$ hatch env create\nCreating environment: default\nInstalling project in development mode\nSyncing dependencies\n

Tip

You never need to manually create environments as spawning a shell or running commands within one will automatically trigger creation.

"},{"location":"environment/#entering-environments","title":"Entering environments","text":"

You can spawn a shell within an environment by using the shell command.

$ hatch shell\n(hatch-demo) $\n

Now confirm the project has been installed:

(hatch-demo) $ pip show hatch-demo\nName: hatch-demo\nVersion: 0.0.1\n...\n

Finally, see where your environment's Python is located:

(hatch-demo) $ python -c \"import sys;print(sys.executable)\"\n...\n

You can type exit to leave the environment.

"},{"location":"environment/#command-execution","title":"Command execution","text":"

The run command allows you to execute commands in an environment as if you had already entered it. For example, running the following command will output the same path as before:

hatch run python -c \"import sys;print(sys.executable)\"\n
"},{"location":"environment/#scripts","title":"Scripts","text":"

You can also run any scripts that have been defined.

You'll notice that in the pyproject.toml file there are already scripts defined in the default environment. Try running the test command, which invokes pytest with some default arguments:

hatch run test\n

All additional arguments are passed through to that script, so for example if you wanted to see the version of pytest and which plugins are installed you could do:

hatch run test -VV\n
"},{"location":"environment/#dependencies","title":"Dependencies","text":"

Hatch ensures that environments are always compatible with the currently defined project dependencies (if installed and in dev mode) and environment dependencies.

To add cowsay as a dependency, open pyproject.toml and add it to the dependencies array:

pyproject.toml
[project]\n...\ndependencies = [\n  \"cowsay\"\n]\n

This dependency will be installed the next time you spawn a shell or run a command. For example:

$ hatch run cowsay -t \"Hello, world!\"\nSyncing dependencies\n  _____________\n| Hello, world! |\n  =============\n             \\\n              \\\n                ^__^\n                (oo)\\_______\n                (__)\\       )\\/\\\n                    ||----w |\n                    ||     ||\n

Note

The Syncing dependencies status will display temporarily when Hatch updates environments in response to any dependency changes that you make.

"},{"location":"environment/#selection","title":"Selection","text":"

You can select which environment to enter or run commands in by using the -e/--env root option or by setting the HATCH_ENV environment variable.

The run command allows for more explicit selection by prepending <ENV_NAME>: to commands. For example, if you had the following configuration:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.envs.docs]\ndependencies = [\n  \"mkdocs\"\n]\n[tool.hatch.envs.docs.scripts]\nbuild = \"mkdocs build --clean --strict\"\nserve = \"mkdocs serve --dev-addr localhost:8000\"\n
[envs.docs]\ndependencies = [\n  \"mkdocs\"\n]\n[envs.docs.scripts]\nbuild = \"mkdocs build --clean --strict\"\nserve = \"mkdocs serve --dev-addr localhost:8000\"\n

you could then serve your documentation by running:

hatch run docs:serve\n

Tip

If you've already entered an environment, commands will target it by default.

"},{"location":"environment/#matrix","title":"Matrix","text":"

Every environment can define its own set of matrices:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.envs.test]\ndependencies = [\n  \"pytest\"\n]\n\n[[tool.hatch.envs.test.matrix]]\npython = [\"2.7\", \"3.8\"]\nversion = [\"42\", \"3.14\"]\n\n[[tool.hatch.envs.test.matrix]]\npython = [\"3.8\", \"3.9\"]\nversion = [\"9000\"]\nfeatures = [\"foo\", \"bar\"]\n

When the version is not statically set, configuration is defined in the tool.hatch.version table. The source option determines the source to use for retrieving and updating the version. The regex source is used by default.

The regex source requires an option path that represents a relative path to a file containing the project's version:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.version]\npath = \"src/hatch_demo/__about__.py\"\n
[version]\npath = \"src/hatch_demo/__about__.py\"\n

The default pattern looks for a variable named __version__ or VERSION that is set to a string containing the version, optionally prefixed with the lowercase letter v.

If this doesn't reflect how you store the version, you can define a different regular expression using the pattern option:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.version]\npath = \"pkg/__init__.py\"\npattern = \"BUILD = 'b(?P<version>[^']+)'\"\n
[version]\npath = \"pkg/__init__.py\"\npattern = \"BUILD = 'b(?P<version>[^']+)'\"\n

The scheme option determines the scheme to use for parsing both the existing and new versions. The standard scheme is used by default, which is based on PEP 440.

Rather than setting the version explicitly, you can select the name of a segment used to increment the version:

$ hatch version minor\nOld: 0.1.0\nNew: 0.2.0\n

You can chain multiple segment updates with a comma. For example, if you wanted to release a preview of your project's first major version, you could do:

"},{"location":"blog/2022/10/08/hatch-v160/#build-environments","title":"Build environments","text":"

Originally, the environment interface method for providing builder sub-environments was intended to be used in conjunction with some cleanup logic in order to provide a fresh setup every time. However, this is unnecessary in practice because build dependencies rarely change.

Without caching, repeat build environment use is slow which affects the following scenarios:

Now a new environment interface method build_environment_exists is used by Hatch to determine whether or not it has already been created, for implementations that have a caching mechanism.

The virtual environment type now uses this method to cache build environments.

"},{"location":"blog/2022/10/08/hatch-v160/#project-metadata","title":"Project metadata","text":"

Dynamically defined metadata is now supported everywhere, thanks to the new caching of virtual build environments.

A project metadata command is introduced that displays the fully resolved metadata. The output format is JSON unless a field is specified as an argument.

For example, if you checkout a project that is built by Hatch, like FastAPI, and run:

hatch project metadata readme\n

only the readme text will be displayed. If the content is in Markdown, then Rich will render it directly in your terminal:

"},{"location":"blog/2022/10/08/hatch-v160/#virtual-environment-location","title":"Virtual environment location","text":"

The virtual environment type now uses a flat layout for storage in the configured virtual environment directory if the directory resides somewhere within the project root or if it is set to a .virtualenvs directory within the user's home directory.

For example, if you define the following Hatch configuration:

config.toml
[dirs.env]\nvirtual = \".hatch\"\n

and the following matrix:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[[tool.hatch.envs.test.matrix]]\npython = [\"3.7\", \"3.8\", \"3.9\", \"3.10\", \"3.11\"]\n
[[envs.test.matrix]]\npython = [\"3.7\", \"3.8\", \"3.9\", \"3.10\", \"3.11\"]\n

then locating environments with the following command:

hatch env find test\n

will show that the general directory structure is:

.hatch\n\u251c\u2500\u2500 test.py3.7\n\u251c\u2500\u2500 test.py3.8\n\u251c\u2500\u2500 test.py3.9\n\u251c\u2500\u2500 test.py3.10\n\u2514\u2500\u2500 test.py3.11\n

This flat structure is required for detection of virtual environments by tools like Visual Studio Code and PyCharm.

Additionally, the virtual environment type now supports a path option to specify an explicit path that all inherited environments will share, such as the common .venv.

Hatch v1.8.0 brings Python distribution management, static analysis and formatting backed by Ruff, and binaries for every platform.

"},{"location":"blog/2023/12/11/hatch-v180/#installation-made-easy","title":"Installation made easy","text":"

One thing that has been a perpetual problem for Hatch and other Python applications is that Python itself is a dependency. You, and more importantly your users, need to in some way get Python before your software can even be used. The recommended way to go about that is platform-dependent and even differs based on your target audience. I viewed this as a central UX problem for Hatch and so severe that I took a bit of a hiatus to solve it.

Luckily, I have to my satisfaction solved this problem in the form of PyApp. It is a runtime installer for Python projects written in Rust. Apps are distributed as standalone executables as users have come to expect and bootstrapping occurs upon the first invocation. Here is an example of what you would see the first time you run a binary from this release:

Now that we have binaries, creating installers for different platforms becomes trivial. Starting with this release not only are binaries available for every platform but also we have installers for Windows and macOS. The installer for macOS is signed using a certificate from the same account used to sign the official distributions from https://www.python.org, so users will not get any security pop-ups. Shout out to @ewdurbin for their extreme generosity in setting up multiple certificates in their free time!

These installers and binaries are now the recommended way to install and update Hatch. These binaries have built-in management so you can update to the latest version by running hatch self update.

Windows signing

In future we will sign the installers for Windows but I did not have time to look into how that works. macOS signing took way longer than I anticipated

"},{"location":"blog/2023/12/11/hatch-v180/#python-management","title":"Python management","text":"

For a long time I and other users have desired that Hatch gain the ability to manage Python distributions. In my mind this was always blocked on a better installation experience because there was sort of a chicken-or-egg problem where you want a Python manager but you first need Python. No longer is that the case!

The new python command group allows for easy installation of various distributions to arbitrary locations which are then added to your PATH by default. Hatch supports CPython and PyPy distributions:

"},{"location":"blog/2023/12/11/hatch-v180/#virtual-environment-python-resolution","title":"Virtual environment Python resolution","text":"

The virtual environment type is now far more intelligent when resolving the parent distribution to use and guarantees that, when no specific version is requested, the resolved distribution will always be compatible with the project.

Additionally, when a requested version cannot be found on PATH it will automatically be downloaded and managed internally.

"},{"location":"blog/2023/12/11/hatch-v180/#static-analysis","title":"Static analysis","text":"

There is a new fmt command, backed entirely by Ruff, that checks and fixes your code for formatting and linting issues.

Starting with this release, Hatch maintains default settings that are guaranteed to be up-to-date and represent best practices for programming in modern Python. The idea is to provide defaults that are so broadly applicable that the majority of users will maintain little if any of their own overrides.

The default behavior is internal management of settings to provide an OOTB experience that works. It is recommended however that you persist the default config file in version control so that other tools like IDEs can utilize your full configuration.

Since Ruff is now provided as a built-in feature, new project templates no longer have such configuration and are much less verbose.

"},{"location":"blog/2023/12/11/hatch-v180/#build-improvements","title":"Build improvements","text":"

Building projects that do not use Hatchling as a backend is now supported and such builds are managed with the standard build tool.

The bridge between Hatch and the Hatchling CLI has been removed. Previously, the builder would send serialized messages to Hatch that would contain the desired content and style for each line of output. This was done in an effort to allow builder and build hook plugins to output pretty messages without actually requiring a dependency like Rich. A problem that arises with this is that builders that invoke subprocesses will not display ANSI codes as one might expect and will lose out on the interactive experience of such invocations, like the built-in app builder plugin calling cargo build. So now everything is simpler at the expense of no colored output without manual logic, or adding a dependency if you're a third-party plugin.

"},{"location":"blog/2023/12/11/hatch-v180/#faster-environment-usage","title":"Faster environment usage","text":"

Spawning a shell or running commands within environments always first checks that your project's dependencies are satisfied and if not synchronizes the environment with what is defined. Previously, this had the potential to be quite slow for projects that have many dependencies.

Now the set of dependency definitions is hashed and no check is performed if the hash is the same as before, significantly speeding up environment usage in most cases.

Upcoming features include a test command, commands to manage dependencies, and workspaces functionality similar to Cargo that will make managing monorepos far easier.

Next year there will be two large efforts that you should expect to see:

  1. A significant amount of my free time (and some at work) will be devoted to introducing lock file functionality in Hatch and trying to get whatever that happens to be standardized.

    I met with @brettcannon about his thoughts post-PEP 665 and about mousebender. I also met with the prefix.dev team about rip and was fortunate enough to be shown a demo before its official announcement.

    At the moment, the two options I see are to either go all in and contribute to mousebender or rely on the Prefix folks and use rip. The latter has the benefit of potentially supporting Conda as a side effect with the downside of being quite new with the spec firmly out of our control. The former has the benefit of being able to easily gain institutional support from the Python packaging team and each of our employers with the downside being a significant amount of work needing to be done.

  2. When @henryiii is able to get some free time away from teaching I plan to work with him once again and push very hard for the Python build ecosystem to adopt the extensionlib approach.

    I am of the opinion that the Python community has not fully completed the expressed outcome of PEP 517 in that build backends are still (for the most part) reliant on setuptools for building non-Python code bases.

    Basically, there are components that interact with compilers to produce extension modules and components that pack files into an archive which we call a build backend. These are two distinct pieces of functionality and my view is that there should be an API that allows backends to consume extension module builders to find out where things got created and where they should be shipped inside archives.

    In this hypothetical future any build backend would be able to trigger the building of extension modules based on user configuration.

Build targets are defined as sections within tool.hatch.build.targets:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.<TARGET_NAME>]\n
[build.targets.<TARGET_NAME>]\n

Tip

Although not recommended, you may define global configuration in the tool.hatch.build table. Keys may then be overridden by target config.

"},{"location":"config/build/#build-system","title":"Build system","text":"

To be compatible with the broader Python packaging ecosystem, you must define the build system as follows:

pyproject.toml
[build-system]\nrequires = [\"hatchling\"]\nbuild-backend = \"hatchling.build\"\n

The version of hatchling defined here will be used to build all targets.

Hatchling is a standards-compliant1 build backend and is a dependency of Hatch itself.

"},{"location":"config/build/#file-selection","title":"File selection","text":""},{"location":"config/build/#vcs","title":"VCS","text":"

By default, Hatch will respect the first .gitignore or .hgignore file found in your project's root directory or parent directories. Set ignore-vcs to true to disable this behavior:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.sdist]\nignore-vcs = true\n
[build.targets.sdist]\nignore-vcs = true\n

Note

For .hgignore files only glob syntax is supported.

"},{"location":"config/build/#patterns","title":"Patterns","text":"

You can set the include and exclude options to select exactly which files will be shipped in each build, with exclude taking precedence. Every entry represents a Git-style glob pattern.

For example, the following configuration:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.sdist]\ninclude = [\n  \"pkg/*.py\",\n  \"/tests\",\n]\nexclude = [\n  \"*.json\",\n  \"pkg/_compat.py\",\n]\n
[build.targets.sdist]\ninclude = [\n  \"pkg/*.py\",\n  \"/tests\",\n]\nexclude = [\n  \"*.json\",\n  \"pkg/_compat.py\",\n]\n

will exclude every file with a .json extension, and will include everything under a tests directory located at the root and every file with a .py extension that is directly under a pkg directory located at the root except for _compat.py.

"},{"location":"config/build/#artifacts","title":"Artifacts","text":"

If you want to include files that are ignored by your VCS, such as those that might be created by build hooks, you can use the artifacts option. This option is semantically equivalent to include.

Note that artifacts are not affected by the exclude option. Artifacts can be excluded by using more explicit paths or by using the ! negation operator. When using the ! operator, the negated pattern(s) must come after the more generic ones.

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel]\nartifacts = [\n  \"*.so\",\n  \"*.dll\",\n  \"!/foo/*.so\",\n]\n
[build.targets.wheel]\nartifacts = [\n  \"*.so\",\n  \"*.dll\",\n  \"!/foo/*.so\",\n]\n
"},{"location":"config/build/#explicit-selection","title":"Explicit selection","text":""},{"location":"config/build/#generic","title":"Generic","text":"

You can use the only-include option to prevent directory traversal starting at the project root and only select specific relative paths to directories or files. Using this option ignores any defined include patterns.

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.sdist]\nonly-include = [\"pkg\", \"tests/unit\"]\n
[build.targets.sdist]\nonly-include = [\"pkg\", \"tests/unit\"]\n
"},{"location":"config/build/#packages","title":"Packages","text":"

The packages option is semantically equivalent to only-include (which takes precedence) except that the shipped path will be collapsed to only include the final component.

So for example, if you want to ship a package foo that is stored in a directory src you would do:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel]\npackages = [\"src/foo\"]\n
[build.targets.wheel]\npackages = [\"src/foo\"]\n
"},{"location":"config/build/#forced-inclusion","title":"Forced inclusion","text":"

The force-include option allows you to select specific files or directories from anywhere on the file system that should be included and map them to the desired relative distribution path.

For example, if there was a directory alongside the project root named artifacts containing a file named lib.so and a file named lib.h in your home directory, you could ship both files in a pkg directory with the following configuration:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel.force-include]\n\"../artifacts\" = \"pkg\"\n\"~/lib.h\" = \"pkg/lib.h\"\n
[build.targets.wheel.force-include]\n\"../artifacts\" = \"pkg\"\n\"~/lib.h\" = \"pkg/lib.h\"\n

Note

Warning

Files included using this option will overwrite any file path that was already included by other file selection options.

"},{"location":"config/build/#default-file-selection","title":"Default file selection","text":"

If no file selection options are provided, then what gets included is determined by each build target.

"},{"location":"config/build/#excluding-files-outside-packages","title":"Excluding files outside packages","text":"

If you want to exclude non-artifact files that do not reside within a Python package, set only-packages to true:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel]\nonly-packages = true\n
[build.targets.wheel]\nonly-packages = true\n
"},{"location":"config/build/#rewriting-paths","title":"Rewriting paths","text":"

You can rewrite relative paths to directories with the sources option. For example, the following configuration:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel.sources]\n\"src/foo\" = \"bar\"\n
[build.targets.wheel.sources]\n\"src/foo\" = \"bar\"\n

would distribute the file src/foo/file.ext as bar/file.ext.

If you want to remove path prefixes entirely, rather than setting each to an empty string, you can define sources as an array:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel]\nsources = [\"src\"]\n
[build.targets.wheel]\nsources = [\"src\"]\n

If you want to add a prefix to paths, you can use an empty string. For example, the following configuration:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel.sources]\n\"\" = \"foo\"\n
[build.targets.wheel.sources]\n\"\" = \"foo\"\n

would distribute the file bar/file.ext as foo/bar/file.ext.

The packages option itself relies on sources. Defining packages = [\"src/foo\"] for the wheel target is equivalent to the following:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel]\nonly-include = [\"src/foo\"]\nsources = [\"src\"]\n
[build.targets.wheel]\nonly-include = [\"src/foo\"]\nsources = [\"src\"]\n
"},{"location":"config/build/#performance","title":"Performance","text":"

All encountered directories are traversed by default. To skip non-artifact directories that are excluded, set skip-excluded-dirs to true:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build]\nskip-excluded-dirs = true\n
[build]\nskip-excluded-dirs = true\n

Warning

This may result in not shipping desired files. For example, if you want to include the file a/b/c.txt but your VCS ignores a/b, the file c.txt will not be seen because its parent directory will not be entered. In such cases you can use the force-include option.

"},{"location":"config/build/#reproducible-builds","title":"Reproducible builds","text":"

By default, build targets will build in a reproducible manner provided that they support that behavior. To disable this, set reproducible to false:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build]\nreproducible = false\n
[build]\nreproducible = false\n

When enabled, the SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH environment variable will be used for all build timestamps. If not set, then Hatch will use an unchanging default value.

"},{"location":"config/build/#output-directory","title":"Output directory","text":"

When the output directory is not provided to the build command, the dist directory will be used by default. You can change the default to a different directory using a relative or absolute path like so:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build]\ndirectory = \"<PATH>\"\n
[build]\ndirectory = \"<PATH>\"\n
"},{"location":"config/build/#dev-mode","title":"Dev mode","text":"

By default for dev mode environment installations or editable installs, the wheel target will determine which directories should be added to Python's search path based on the selected files.

If you want to override this detection or perhaps instruct other build targets as well, you can use the dev-mode-dirs option:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build]\ndev-mode-dirs = [\".\"]\n
[build]\ndev-mode-dirs = [\".\"]\n

If you don't want to add entire directories to Python's search path, you can enable a more targeted mechanism with the mutually exclusive dev-mode-exact option:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.build]\ndev-mode-exact = true\n
[build]\ndev-mode-exact = true\n

Warning

The dev-mode-exact mechanism is not supported by static analysis tools & IDEs, therefore functionality such as autocompletion is unlikely to work.

A build hook defines code that will be executed at various stages of the build process and can be provided by any build hook plugin. There is one built-in build hook: custom.

Build hooks can be applied either globally:

"},{"location":"config/context/","title":"Context formatting","text":"

You can populate configuration with the values of certain supported fields using the syntax of Python's format strings. Each field interprets the modifier part after the colon differently, if at all.

"},{"location":"config/context/#global-fields","title":"Global fields","text":"

Any configuration that declares support for context formatting will always support these fields.

"},{"location":"config/context/#paths","title":"Paths","text":"Field Description root The root project directory home The user's home directory

All paths support the following modifiers:

Modifier Description uri The normalized absolute URI path prefixed by file: real The path with all symbolic links resolved parent The parent of the preceding path

Tip

The parent modifier can be chained and may be combined with either the uri or real modifier, with the latter placed at the end. For example:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.envs.test]\ndependencies = [\n    \"example-project @ {root:parent:parent:uri}/example-project\",\n]\n
[envs.test]\ndependencies = [\n    \"example-project @ {root:parent:parent:uri}/example-project\",\n]\n

The env field and its modifier allow you to select the value of an environment variable. If the environment variable is not set, you must specify a default value as an additional modifier e.g. {env:PATH:DEFAULT}.

"},{"location":"config/context/#field-nesting","title":"Field nesting","text":"

You can insert fields within others. For example, if you wanted a script that displays the value of the environment variable FOO, with a fallback to the environment variable BAR, with its own fallback to the user's home directory, you could do the following:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.envs.test.scripts]\ndisplay = \"echo {env:FOO:{env:BAR:{home}}}\"\n
[envs.test.scripts]\ndisplay = \"echo {env:FOO:{env:BAR:{home}}}\"\n
"},{"location":"config/dependency/","title":"Dependency configuration","text":"

Project dependencies are defined with PEP 508 strings using optional PEP 440 version specifiers.

"},{"location":"config/dependency/#version-specifiers","title":"Version specifiers","text":"

A version specifier consists of a series of version clauses, separated by commas. For example:

pyproject.toml
[project]\n...\ndependencies = [\n  \"cryptography\",\n  \"click>=7, <9, != 8.0.0\",\n  \"python-dateutil==2.8.*\",\n  \"numpy~=1.21.4\",\n]\n

The comma is equivalent to a logical AND operator: a candidate version must match all given version clauses in order to match the specifier as a whole.

"},{"location":"config/dependency/#operators","title":"Operators","text":"Operators Function ~= Compatible release == Version matching != Version exclusion <=, >= Inclusive ordered comparison <, > Exclusive ordered comparison === Arbitrary equality"},{"location":"config/dependency/#version-matching","title":"Version matching","text":"

A version matching clause includes the version matching operator == and a version identifier.

By default, the version matching operator is based on a strict equality comparison: the specified version must be exactly the same as the requested version.

Clause Allowed versions ==1 1.0.0 ==1.2 1.2.0

Prefix matching may be requested instead of strict comparison, by appending a trailing .* to the version identifier in the version matching clause. This means that additional trailing segments will be ignored when determining whether or not a version identifier matches the clause.

Clause Allowed versions ==1.* >=1.0.0, <2.0.0 ==1.2.* >=1.2.0, <1.3.0"},{"location":"config/dependency/#compatible-release","title":"Compatible release","text":"

A compatible release clause consists of the compatible release operator ~= and a version identifier. It matches any candidate version that is expected to be compatible with the specified version.

For a given release identifier V.N, the compatible release clause is approximately equivalent to the following pair of comparison clauses:

>= V.N, == V.*\n

This operator cannot be used with a single segment version number such as ~=1.

Clause Allowed versions ~=1.2 >=1.2.0, <2.0.0 ~=1.2.3 >=1.2.3, <1.3.0"},{"location":"config/dependency/#version-exclusion","title":"Version exclusion","text":"

A version exclusion clause includes the version exclusion operator != and a version identifier.

The allowed version identifiers and comparison semantics are the same as those of the Version matching operator, except that the sense of any match is inverted.

"},{"location":"config/dependency/#ordered-comparison","title":"Ordered comparison","text":"

Inclusive comparisons allow for the version identifier part of clauses whereas exclusive comparisons do not. For example, >=1.2 allows for version 1.2.0 while >1.2 does not.

Unlike the inclusive ordered comparisons <= and >=, the exclusive ordered comparisons < and > specifically exclude pre-releases, post-releases, and local versions of the specified version.

"},{"location":"config/dependency/#arbitrary-equality","title":"Arbitrary equality","text":"

Though heavily discouraged, arbitrary equality comparisons allow for simple string matching without any version semantics, for example ===foobar.

"},{"location":"config/dependency/#environment-markers","title":"Environment markers","text":"

Environment markers allow for dependencies to only be installed when certain conditions are met.

For example, if you need to install the latest version of cryptography that is available for a given Python major version you could define the following:

cryptography==3.3.2; python_version < \"3\"\ncryptography>=35.0; python_version > \"3\"\n

Alternatively, if you only need it on Python 3 when running on Windows you could do:

cryptography; python_version ~= \"3.0\" and platform_system == \"Windows\"\n

The available environment markers are as follows.

Marker Python equivalent Examples os_name import osos.name sys_platform import syssys.platform platform_machine import platformplatform.machine() platform_python_implementation import platformplatform.python_implementation() platform_release import platformplatform.release() platform_system import platformplatform.system() platform_version import platformplatform.version() python_version import platform'.'.join(platform.python_version_tuple()[:2]) python_full_version import platformplatform.python_version() implementation_name import syssys.implementation.name implementation_version See here "},{"location":"config/dependency/#features","title":"Features","text":"

You can select groups of optional dependencies to install using the extras syntax. For example, if a dependency named foo defined the following:

pyproject.toml
[project.optional-dependencies]\ncrypto = [\n  \"PyJWT\",\n  \"cryptography\",\n]\nfastjson = [\n  \"orjson\",\n]\ncli = [\n  \"prompt-toolkit\",\n  \"colorama; platform_system == 'Windows'\",\n]\n

You can select the cli and crypto features like so:

foo[cli,crypto]==1.*\n

Note that the features come immediately after the package name, before any version specifiers.

"},{"location":"config/dependency/#self-referential","title":"Self-referential","text":"

Feature groups can self-referentially extend others. For example, for a project called awesome-project, the dev feature group in the following pyproject.toml file would select everything in the crypto feature group, plus black:

pyproject.toml
[project]\nname = \"awesome-project\"\n\n[project.optional-dependencies]\ncrypto = [\n  \"PyJWT\",\n  \"cryptography\",\n]\ndev = [\n  \"awesome-project[crypto]\",\n  \"black\",\n]\n
"},{"location":"config/dependency/#direct-references","title":"Direct references","text":"

Instead of using normal version specifiers and fetching packages from an index like PyPI, you can define exact sources using direct references with an explicit URI.

Direct references are usually not meant to be used for dependencies of a published project but rather are used for defining dependencies for an environment.

All direct reference types are prefixed by the package name like:

<NAME> @ <REFERENCE>\n
"},{"location":"config/dependency/#version-control-systems","title":"Version control systems","text":"

Various version control systems (VCS) are supported as long as the associated executable is available along your PATH.

VCS direct references are defined using one of the following formats:

<NAME> @ <SCHEME>://<PATH>\n<NAME> @ <SCHEME>://<PATH>@<REVISION>\n

You may also append a #subdirectory=<PATH> component for specifying the relative path to the Python package when it is not located at the root e.g. #subdirectory=lib/foo.

You can install local packages with the file scheme in the following format:

<NAME> @ file://<HOST>/<PATH>\n

The <HOST> is only used on Windows systems, where it can refer to a network share. If omitted it is assumed to be localhost and the third slash must still be present.

The <PATH> can refer to a source archive, a wheel, or a directory containing a Python package.

Type Unix Windows Source archive proj @ file:///path/to/pkg.tar.gz proj @ file:///c:/path/to/pkg.tar.gz Wheel proj @ file:///path/to/pkg.whl proj @ file:///c:/path/to/pkg.whl Directory proj @ file:///path/to/pkg proj @ file:///c:/path/to/pkg

Tip

You may also specify paths relative to your project's root directory on all platforms by using context formatting:

<NAME> @ {root:uri}/pkg_inside_project\n<NAME> @ {root:uri}/../pkg_alongside_project\n
"},{"location":"config/dependency/#remote","title":"Remote","text":"

You can install source archives and wheels by simply referring to a URL:

In this mode, Hatch will only work on the selected project. The project is located using multiple heuristics:

  1. If the project is defined in the projects table then it must be a string, or an inline table with a location key, that is the full path to the project.
  2. If the project matches a subdirectory in any of the directories listed in dirs.project, then that will be used as the project root.

An error will occur if the project cannot be found.

You can use the config set command to change the project you are working on:

$ hatch config set project proj2\nNew setting:\nproject = \"proj2\"\n

Hatch provides default settings that user configuration can extend.

"},{"location":"config/static-analysis/#extending-config","title":"Extending config","text":"

When defining your configuration, be sure to use options that are prefixed by extend- such as extend-select, for example:

pyproject.toml ruff.toml
[tool.ruff.format]\npreview = true\nquote-style = \"single\"\n\n[tool.ruff.lint]\npreview = true\nextend-select = [\"C901\"]\n\n[tool.ruff.lint.extend-per-file-ignores]\n\"docs/.hooks/*\" = [\"INP001\", \"T201\"]\n\n[tool.ruff.lint.isort]\nknown-first-party = [\"foo\", \"bar\"]\n

Note

When not persisting config, there is no need to explicitly extend the defaults as Hatch automatically handles that.

"},{"location":"config/static-analysis/#persistent-config","title":"Persistent config","text":"

If you want to store the default configuration in the project, set an explicit path like so:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.envs.hatch-static-analysis]\nconfig-path = \"ruff_defaults.toml\"\n
[envs.hatch-static-analysis]\nconfig-path = \"ruff_defaults.toml\"\n

Then instruct Ruff to consider your configuration as an extension of the default file:

pyproject.toml ruff.toml
[tool.ruff]\nextend = \"ruff_defaults.toml\"\n
extend = \"ruff_defaults.toml\"\n

Anytime you wish to update the defaults (such as when upgrading Hatch), you must run the fmt command once with the --sync flag e.g.:

hatch fmt --check --sync\n

Tip

This is the recommended approach since it allows other tools like IDEs to use the default configuration.

You can pin the particular version of Ruff by explicitly defining the environment dependencies:

All environments support the following extra context formatting fields:

Field Description env_name The name of the environment env_type The type of environment matrix Its modifier selects the value of that matrix variable. If the environment is not part of a matrix or was not generated with the variable, you must specify a default value as an additional modifier e.g. {matrix:version:v1.0.0}. verbosity The integer verbosity value of Hatch. A flag modifier is supported that will render the value as a CLI flag e.g. -2 becomes -qq, 1 becomes -v, and 0 becomes an empty string. An additional flag integer modifier may be used to adjust the verbosity level. For example, if you wanted to make a command quiet by default, you could use {verbosity:flag:-1} within the command. args For executed commands only, any extra command line arguments with an optional default modifier if none were provided"},{"location":"config/environment/advanced/#matrix","title":"Matrix","text":"

Environments can define a series of matrices with the matrix option:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.envs.test]\ndependencies = [\n  \"pytest\"\n]\n\n[[tool.hatch.envs.test.matrix]]\npython = [\"2.7\", \"3.8\"]\nversion = [\"42\", \"3.14\"]\n\n[[tool.hatch.envs.test.matrix]]\npython = [\"3.8\", \"3.9\"]\nversion = [\"9000\"]\nfeature = [\"foo\", \"bar\"]\n

Doing so will result in the product of each variable combination being its own environment.

"},{"location":"config/environment/advanced/#naming","title":"Naming","text":"

The name of the generated environments will be the variable values of each combination separated by hyphens, altogether prefixed by <ENV_NAME>.. For example, the following configuration:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[[tool.hatch.envs.test.matrix]]\nversion = [\"42\"]\nfeature = [\"foo\", \"bar\"]\n
[[envs.test.matrix]]\nversion = [\"42\"]\nfeature = [\"foo\", \"bar\"]\n

would indicate the following unique environments:

test.42-foo\ntest.42-bar\n

The exceptions to this format are described below.

"},{"location":"config/environment/advanced/#python-variables","title":"Python variables","text":"

If the variables py or python are specified, then they will rank first in the product result and will be prefixed by py if the value is not. For example, the following configuration:

[[envs.test.matrix]]\nversion = [\"42\"]\npython = [\"3.9\", \"pypy3\"]\n

would generate the following environments:

test.py3.9-42\ntest.pypy3-42\n

Note

The value of this variable sets the Python version.

"},{"location":"config/environment/advanced/#name-formatting","title":"Name formatting","text":"

You can set the matrix-name-format option to modify how each variable part is formatted which recognizes the placeholders {variable} and {value}. For example, the following configuration:

[tool.hatch.envs.test]\nmatrix-name-format = \"{variable}_{value}\"\n\n[[tool.hatch.envs.test.matrix]]\nversion = [\"42\"]\nfeature = [\"foo\", \"bar\"]\n
[envs.test]\nmatrix-name-format = \"{variable}_{value}\"\n\n[[envs.test.matrix]]\nversion = [\"42\"]\nfeature = [\"foo\", \"bar\"]\n

would produce the following environments:

By default this option is set to {value}.

"},{"location":"config/environment/advanced/#default-environment","title":"Default environment","text":"

If the default environment defines matrices, then the generated names will not be prefixed by the environment name. This can be useful for projects that only need a single series of matrices without any standalone environments.

"},{"location":"config/environment/advanced/#selection","title":"Selection","text":"

Rather than selecting a single generated environment, you can select the root environment to target all of them. For example, if you have the following configuration:

The storage location for environments is completely configurable.

Unless an environment is explicitly selected on the command line, the default environment will be used. The type of this environment defaults to virtual.

Info

Environments prefixed by hatch- are used for special purposes e.g. static analysis.

"},{"location":"config/environment/overview/#inheritance","title":"Inheritance","text":"

All environments inherit from the environment defined by its template option, which defaults to default.

the environment bar will be of type baz with skip-install set to false.

Note

Environments do not inherit matrices.

"},{"location":"config/environment/overview/#self-referential-environments","title":"Self-referential environments","text":"

You can disable inheritance by setting template to the environment's own name:

[tool.hatch.envs.foo]\ntemplate = \"foo\"\n
[envs.foo]\ntemplate = \"foo\"\n
"},{"location":"config/environment/overview/#detached-environments","title":"Detached environments","text":"

A common use case is standalone environments that do not require inheritance nor the installation of the project, such as for linting or sometimes building documentation. Enabling the detached option will make the environment self-referential and will skip project installation:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.envs.lint]\ndetached = true\n
[envs.lint]\ndetached = true\n
"},{"location":"config/environment/overview/#dependencies","title":"Dependencies","text":"

You can install dependencies in addition to the ones defined by your project's metadata. Entries support context formatting.

[envs.test]\ndependencies = [\n  \"coverage[toml]\",\n  \"pytest\",\n  \"pytest-cov\",\n  \"pytest-mock\",\n]\n

If you define environments with dependencies that only slightly differ from their inherited environments, you can use the extra-dependencies option to avoid redeclaring the dependencies option:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.envs.default]\ndependencies = [\n  \"foo\",\n  \"bar\",\n]\n\n[tool.hatch.envs.experimental]\nextra-dependencies = [\n  \"baz\",\n]\n
[envs.default]\ndependencies = [\n  \"foo\",\n  \"bar\",\n]\n\n[envs.experimental]\nextra-dependencies = [\n  \"baz\",\n]\n

Tip

Hatch uses pip to install dependencies so any configuration it supports Hatch does as well. For example, if you wanted to only use a private repository you could set the PIP_INDEX_URL environment variable.

[envs.<ENV_NAME>]\nenv-include = [\n  \"FOO*\",\n]\nenv-exclude = [\n  \"BAR\",\n]\n

Exclusion patterns take precedence but will never affect defined environment variables.

"},{"location":"config/environment/overview/#scripts","title":"Scripts","text":"

You can define named scripts that may be executed or referenced at the beginning of other scripts. Context formatting is supported.

For example, in the following configuration:

the run script would be expanded to:

pytest --cov-config=pyproject.toml --cov=pkg --cov=tests --no-cov\n

Scripts can also be defined as an array of strings.

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.envs.style]\ndetached = true\ndependencies = [\n  \"flake8\",\n  \"black\",\n  \"isort\",\n]\n[tool.hatch.envs.style.scripts]\ncheck = [\n  \"flake8 .\",\n  \"black --check --diff .\",\n  \"isort --check-only --diff .\",\n]\nfmt = [\n  \"isort .\",\n  \"black .\",\n  \"check\",\n]\n

Similar to make, you can ignore the exit code of commands that start with - (a hyphen). For example, the script error defined by the following configuration would halt after the second command with 3 as the exit code:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.envs.test.scripts]\nerror = [\n  \"- exit 1\",\n  \"exit 3\",\n  \"exit 0\",\n]\n
[envs.test.scripts]\nerror = [\n  \"- exit 1\",\n  \"exit 3\",\n  \"exit 0\",\n]\n

Tip

Individual scripts inherit from parent environments just like options.

This is the initial public release of the Hatchling build system. Support for Python 2 will be dropped in version 1.

"},{"location":"how-to/environment/package-indices/","title":"Package indices","text":"

Most Hatch environment types, like the default virtual, simply use pip to install dependencies. Therefore, you can use the standard environment variables that influence pip's behavior to choose where to search for packages.

Here's an example of setting up the default environment to look at 2 private indices (using context formatting for authentication) before finally falling back to PyPI:

pyproject.toml hatch.toml
[tool.hatch.envs.default.env-vars]\nPIP_INDEX_URL = \"https://token:{env:GITLAB_API_TOKEN}@gitlab.com/api/v4/groups/<group1_path>/-/packages/pypi/simple/\"\nPIP_EXTRA_INDEX_URL = \"https://token:{env:GITLAB_API_TOKEN}@gitlab.com/api/v4/groups/<group2_path>/-/packages/pypi/simple/ https://pypi.org/simple/\"\n
[envs.default.env-vars]\nPIP_INDEX_URL = \"https://token:{env:GITLAB_API_TOKEN}@gitlab.com/api/v4/groups/<group1_path>/-/packages/pypi/simple/\"\nPIP_EXTRA_INDEX_URL = \"https://token:{env:GITLAB_API_TOKEN}@gitlab.com/api/v4/groups/<group2_path>/-/packages/pypi/simple/ https://pypi.org/simple/\"\n
"},{"location":"how-to/plugins/testing-builds/","title":"Testing builds","text":"

For testing Hatchling plugins, you'll usually want to generate a project to execute builds as a real user would. For example, as a minimal pytest fixture:

from pathlib import Path\n\nimport pytest\n\n\n@pytest.fixture\ndef new_project(tmp_path):\n    project_dir = tmp_path / 'my-app'\n    project_dir.mkdir()\n\n    project_file = project_dir / 'pyproject.toml'\n    project_file.write_text(\n        f\"\"\"\\\n[build-system]\nrequires = [\"hatchling\", \"hatch-plugin-name @ {Path.cwd().as_uri()}\"]\nbuild-backend = \"hatchling.build\"\n\n[project]\nname = \"my-app\"\nversion = \"0.1.0\"\n\"\"\",\n        encoding='utf-8',\n    )\n    ...\n

The issue with this is that after the first test session, the project will be forever cached by pip based on the file path. Therefore, subsequent tests runs will never use updated code.

To invalidate the cache, copy your code to a new path for every test session:

import shutil\nfrom pathlib import Path\nfrom tempfile import TemporaryDirectory\n\nimport pytest\n\n\n@pytest.fixture(scope='session')\ndef plugin_dir():\n    with TemporaryDirectory() as d:\n        directory = Path(d, 'plugin')\n        shutil.copytree(\n            Path.cwd(), directory, ignore=shutil.ignore_patterns('.git')\n        )\n\n        yield directory.resolve()\n\n\n@pytest.fixture\ndef new_project(tmp_path, plugin_dir):\n    project_dir = tmp_path / 'my-app'\n    project_dir.mkdir()\n\n    project_file = project_dir / 'pyproject.toml'\n    project_file.write_text(\n        f\"\"\"\\\n[build-system]\nrequires = [\"hatchling\", \"hatch-plugin-name @ {plugin_dir.as_uri()}\"]\nbuild-backend = \"hatchling.build\"\n\n[project]\nname = \"my-app\"\nversion = \"0.1.0\"\n\"\"\",\n        encoding='utf-8',\n    )\n    ...\n

Note

This example chooses to ignore copying .git for performance reasons. You may want to ignore more patterns, or copy only specific paths like this plugin does.

Q: What is the risk of lock-in?

A: Not much! Other than the plugin system, everything uses Python's established standards by default. Project metadata is based entirely on the standard, the build system is compatible with PEP 517/PEP 660, versioning uses the scheme specified by PEP 440, dependencies are defined with PEP 508 strings, and environments use virtualenv.

Q: Must one use all features?

A: No, all features are optional! You can use just the build system, publish wheels and source distributions that were built by other tools, only use the environment management, etc.

"},{"location":"meta/faq/#libraries-vs-applications","title":"Libraries vs applications","text":"

Q: Are workflows for both libraries and applications supported?

A: Yes, mostly! Applications can utilize environment management just like libraries, and plugins can be used to build projects in arbitrary formats or publish artifacts to arbitrary destinations.

The only caveat is that currently there is no support for re-creating an environment given a set of dependencies in a reproducible manner. Although a standard lock file format may be far off since [PEP 665][] was rejected, resolving capabilities are coming to pip. When that is stabilized, Hatch will add locking functionality and dedicated documentation for managing applications.

"},{"location":"meta/faq/#fast-cli","title":"Fast CLI?","text":"

The claim about being faster than other tools is based on timings that are always checked in CI.

Hatch achieves this by using lazy imports, lazily performing computation manually and with functools.cached_property, using hacks like not not ... instead of bool(...), etc.

"},{"location":"plugins/about/","title":"Plugins","text":"

Hatch utilizes pluggy for its plugin functionality.

"},{"location":"plugins/about/#overview","title":"Overview","text":"

All plugins provide registration hooks that return one or more classes that inherit from a particular type interface.

Each registration hook must be decorated by Hatch's hook marker. For example, if you wanted to create a new kind of environment you could do:

hooks.py
from hatchling.plugin import hookimpl\n\nfrom .plugin import SpecialEnvironment\n\n\n@hookimpl\ndef hatch_register_environment():\n    return SpecialEnvironment\n

The hooks can return a single class or a list of classes.

Every class must define an attribute called PLUGIN_NAME that users will select when they wish to use the plugin. So in the example above, the class might be defined like:

plugin.py
...\nclass SpecialEnvironment(...):\n    PLUGIN_NAME = 'special'\n    ...\n
"},{"location":"plugins/about/#project-configuration","title":"Project configuration","text":""},{"location":"plugins/about/#naming","title":"Naming","text":"

pyproject.toml
[project]\nname = \"hatch-foo\"\n

You'll need to define your project as a Python plugin for Hatch:

Build hooks run for every selected version of build targets.

The initialization stage occurs immediately before each build and the finalization stage occurs immediately after. Each stage has the opportunity to view or modify build data.

"},{"location":"plugins/build-hook/reference/#build-data","title":"Build data","text":"

Build data is a simple mapping whose contents can influence the behavior of builds. Which fields exist and are recognized depends on each build target.

The following fields are always present and recognized by the build system itself:

Field Type Description artifacts list[str] This is a list of extra artifact patterns and should generally only be appended to force_include dict[str, str] This is a mapping of extra forced inclusion paths, with this mapping taking precedence in case of conflicts build_hooks tuple[str, ...] This is an immutable sequence of the names of the configured build hooks and matches the order in which they run

Attention

While user-facing TOML options are hyphenated, build data fields should be named with underscores to allow plugins to use them as valid Python identifiers.

"},{"location":"plugins/build-hook/reference/#notes","title":"Notes","text":"

In some cases it may be necessary to use force_include rather than artifacts. For example, say that you want to install a lib.so directly at the root of site-packages and a project defines a package src/foo. If you create src/lib.so, there will never be a match because the directory traversal starts at src/foo rather than src. In that case you must do either:

build_data['force_include']['src/lib.so'] = 'src/lib.so'\n

or

build_data['force_include']['/absolute/path/to/src/lib.so'] = 'src/lib.so'\n

"},{"location":"plugins/environment/virtual/#python-resolution","title":"Python resolution","text":"

Virtual environments necessarily require a parent installation of Python. The following rules determine how the parent is resolved.

The Python choice is determined by the python option followed by the HATCH_PYTHON environment variable. If the choice is via the environment variable, then resolution stops and that path is used unconditionally.

The resolvers will be based on the python-sources option and all resolved interpreters will ensure compatibility with the project's defined Python support.

If a Python version has been chosen then each resolver will try to find an interpreter that satisfies that version.

If no version has been chosen, then each resolver will try to find a version that matches the version of Python that Hatch is currently running on. If not found then each resolver will try to find the highest compatible version.

Note

Some external Python paths are considered unstable and are ignored during resolution. For example, if Hatch is installed via Homebrew then sys.executable will be ignored because the interpreter could change or be removed at any time.

Note

When resolution finds a match using an internally managed distribution and an update is available, the latest distribution will automatically be downloaded before environment creation.

If you need to set linker environment variables like those starting with DYLD_ or LD_, any executable secured by System Integrity Protection that is invoked when running commands will not see those environment variable modifications as macOS strips those.

Hatch interprets such commands as shell commands but deliberately ignores such paths to protected shells. This workaround suffices for the majority of use cases but there are 2 situations in which it may not:

  1. There are no unprotected sh, bash, zsh, nor fish executables found along PATH.
  2. The desired executable is a project's script, and the location of environments contains spaces or is longer than 1241 characters. In this case pip and other installers will create such an entry point with a shebang pointing to /bin/sh (which is protected) to avoid shebang limitations. Rather than changing the location, you could invoke the script as e.g. python -m pytest (if the project supports that method of invocation by shipping a __main__.py).
