Setting up a Python Project Using asdf, PDM, and Ruff

By www.viget.com
Published On :: Tue, 17 Sep 2024 10:00:00 -0400

When I was tasked with looking into alternative ways to set up a new Python project (not just using the good ol' pip and requirements.txt setup), I decided to try to find the tools that felt best to me, as someone who writes Python and Ruby. On this journey, I found a way to manage dependencies in Python that felt as good as bundler, among other great tools.

The Runtime Version Manager #

asdf has been my primary tool of choice for language version management for multiple years now. The ease of adding plugins and switching between versions of those plugins at a local or global level has saved me massive amounts of time compared to alternatives.

If you've never set up asdf before, follow the instructions here to get it set up. For reference, I use fish for my shell, so I installed asdf using the "Fish & Git" section.

Once you have asdf on your machine, the next step is to add the plugins you need for your project. Plugins are the actual tools that you want to manage the versions of, like NodeJS, Python, Ruby, etc. For the purposes here, I'll start with adding the plugin for Python:

asdf plugin-add python

Once you have added a plugin to asdf, you're ready to install various versions of that plugin. Since we just installed Python, we can install the version we want:

asdf install python 3.12.4
# OR if we want to just use whatever the latest version is
asdf install python latest

Once the version you want is installed, you can tell asdf to use that version in the current directory by running:

asdf local python 3.12.4
# OR 
asdf local python latest

depending on which version of python you installed.

The Dependency Manager #

In the past, I just used pip install and requirements file(s) to handle most of this. I knew of other options, like pipx or pipenv, but I still have never tried using them. I was more interested in finding a dependency manager that did these things in a significantly different way than what I was used to with pip.

Therefore, I wanted to find something that felt similar to bundler for Ruby. Luckily, very early on in my journey here, I found PDM.

Upon reading what PDM did, I immediately decided to try it out and get a feel for what it offered. Some key notes for me that piqued my interest:

  • Lockfile support
  • Can run scripts in the "PDM environment"
    • pdm run flask run -p 3000 executes the normal flask run -p 3000 command within the context of your installed packages with PDM.
    • In other words, it adheres to PEP 582 and allows you to run project commands without needing to be in a virtual environment, which to me is a big plus.
  • Similar commands to bundler
    • pdm run => bundle exec
    • pdm install => bundle install
    • pdm add <package> => bundle add <gem-name>
      • Note: My workflow was almost always to just add gem <gem-name> to the Gemfile rather than using bundle add, but there is no direct 1:1 equivalent of a Gemfile with PDM.

Installing PDM #

PDM has its own asdf plugin, so let's just use that here as well! Running:

asdf plugin-add pdm

adds the plugin itself to asdf, and running:

asdf install pdm latest 
# can replace 'latest' with a specific version number here too

installs the latest version of PDM. Finally, set the local version with:

asdf local pdm latest
✦Side note about asdf local
  asdf local creates a .tool-versions file (if it doesn't already exist) in the current working directory, and appends the plugin and version number to it. At this point, the directory in which you ran asdf local python 3.12.4 and asdf local pdm latest should have that .tool-versions file, and the contents should be a line each for Python and PDM with their associated version numbers. This way, if someone else pulls down your project, they can just run asdf install and it will install the versions of those plugins, assuming the user has the necessary plugins added themselves.

Now that we have PDM and Python set up, we're ready to use PDM to install whichever packages we need. For simplicity, let's set up a simple Flask app:

pdm add flask flask-sqlalchemy flask-htmx

This line adds Flask, Flask-SQLAlchemy and Flask HTMX. Flask is a web application framework, Flask-SQLAlchemy adds SQLAlchemy and its ORM, and HTMX builds on top of HTML to allow you to write more powerful HTML where you'd otherwise need some JS. Side note, but HTMX is really cool. If you haven't used it before, give it a go! I'm even a part of the exclusive group of HTMX CEOs.

Linting and Formatting #

Finally, I wanted to find a way to avoid pulling in multiple packages (commonly, Black, Flake8 and isort) to handle linting and formatting, which felt to me like it could be the job of one tool.

Pretty quickly I was able to find Ruff which did everything I wanted it to, along with being really fast (thanks Rust ????).

First things first, we need to install Ruff. Since it's a Python package, we can do it using PDM:

pdm add ruff

Once it's installed, we can use ruff check and ruff format to lint and format, respectively. Note that since we installed via PDM, we need to prepend those ruff calls with pdm run:

pdm run ruff check --fix

This runs the linter and fixes any issues found (if they are automatically fixable). The linter can also be run in --watch mode:

pdm run ruff check --watch

which re-lints on every saved change and tells you of any new errors it finds.

The Ruff formatter is similar to use:

pdm run ruff format

which will automatically fix any formatting issues that it finds and can fix. If you want to use this in CI (which you should), you can use the --check flag that will instead exit with a non-zero status code, rather than actually formatting the files:

pdm run ruff format --check

Bringing it all together #

Working with projects set up this way is much easier than how I used to do it. Using tools like asdf, PDM, and Ruff rather than pyenv, pip, and Black/Flake8/isort make both setting up projects and pulling down/installing existing projects more straightforward. I hope the contents of this article are helpful to anyone interested in setting up Python projects in a similar way.

Some Thoughts after a Major Ruby on Rails Upgrade

By www.viget.com
Published On :: Wed, 18 Sep 2024 10:00:00 -0400

For the past few weeks, I've been upgrading an older, fairly large Ruby on Rails app from Rails 5.2 to Rails 7.1 and from Ruby 2.7 to Ruby 3.3. During this time, I have also made the switch from Webpacker to Vite for asset bundling and made various JS and CSS upgrades to go along with that change. Here are a few takeaways from the experience.

Upgrade Regularly #

First, I know I am probably preaching to the choir with this one, but just upgrading your tech as you go and whenever you can is great. It prevents you from being in the position that I was in–having to make such a big jump all in one go. It also makes sure you keep getting security upgrades, and more security is never a bad thing. If you are up for it, you can even automate the process like GitHub does for their Rails upgrades or by using something like Dependabot for notifying you on when to upgrade dependencies.

Commit Often #

This is good advice for any project, but I think it is specifically good when working through issues that arise from upgrading. Whenever I have done a larger upgrade, there’s always at least one tricky issue that takes time to diagnose. This leads to me experimenting and trying a few different things before I figure out the actual fix. Committing often allows me to reset back away from these false paths whenever I decide to go down a new one. But I could also commit these false paths if I'm stuck, store them away in a separate branch, and come back to them later if I feel like an approach is worth a second look.

Leave Code Comments #

If you have a particularly confusing piece of code where its purpose or function is unclear, leave a comment. This is another piece of advice that is relevant at any time, but I found those comments to be extra helpful during this latest round of upgrades. There were several instances of code that had not been touched in years (and never touched by me) causing errors after upgrading the underlying tech. Some of these were well commented, which made it much easier to understand their purpose and decide how to fix them—or even whether to keep them. On the flip side, there were some pieces of code that were not well documented, which made fixing the errors much harder.

Avoid Fancy Code #

As somewhat of an alternative to the code comments, you can also just avoid fancier code. Try seeing if any code that is fairly complex can be simplified into something a bit easier to understand. Also, you want to avoid calling any private APIs that might change out from under you during your upgrade process which can lead to all sorts of weird bugs and behavior. I'm not saying do this completely in place of relevant comments, but simplifying where you can will somewhat cut back the need for them.

Be Selective with Dependencies #

When upgrading a massive Rails app and the Javascript associated with said app, you are often going to have to upgrade some of your dependencies as well. The more of these you have to upgrade, the higher chance you have of breaking something, so it is important to be selective when choosing these dependencies. During these upgrades, I ran into several issues caused by a dependency that really was not doing much for us in the grand scheme of things, but was causing more than its fair share of issues. If you want to read more about how to go about choosing dependencies, feel free to reference my colleague Sol's article on the subject.

The End #

I don't think these insights are particularly original or profound, but hopefully they give you something to think about as you make major upgrades on your own app or as you think ahead to future upgrades.

2023 Flags of the Women's World Cup

By coolinfographics.com
Published On :: Thu, 10 Aug 2023 15:01:16 +0000

The 2023 Women’s World Cup Flags infographic from UK Featherflags takes a currently popular topic in the news, and makes it relevant to the publishers business of making flags. This is the content they know about best.

From the publisher:

[This infographic] takes a look at the flags for the different countries in the 2023 FIFA women's world cup which is taking place from 20 July to 20 August 2023 and is jointly hosted by Australia and New Zealand.

Check out this handy design to view the flags for the countries in the various groups of the tournament along with some interesting facts.

I like the simple infographics that tell one story really well. Not a lot fo text, and the flag images are the highlight of the infographic design. I love that they included the URL to the infographic landing page in the footer! Many people will share or repost an infographic without providing a link back to the original. This makes it easy for readers to track down the source and learn more if they were interested.

This design is missing a few things:

  • I prefer to include the publisher’s logo on the infographic somewhere (usually in the footer). This only mentions the publisher’s website in text as part of the subtitle. It’s easy to miss, and that loses the publisher’s benefit of releasing the infographic in the first place.

  • It’s missing some type of conclusion or call-to-action at the end. What should readers do after reading the infographic? It doesn’t have to be a hard sales pitch. Visit the website, sign up for our newsletter, learn more about flags on our site, etc. What action should the reader take after enjoying the infographic?

How Can We Better Support the Mental Well-Being of Veterans Returning from Service?

Going from the structure of active duty—with its purpose-driven roles, full-throttle environment, and sense of camaraderie—to the relatively humdrum life of a civilian can be jarring, particularly for veterans who’ve experienced trauma during their service and may suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).  Researchers at Boston University, including Dawne Vogt and Casey Taft—both professors of psychiatry in the Chobanian & Avedisian School of Medicine—are utilizing a variety of data-backed strategies to support veterans struggling to adapt to their new normal lives.
