Lots of reductions in percentages. Increases in Education, Desktop, Games, Mobile, and Other Python 3 vs 2 94% Python3 vs 90% last year Python 3.8 has 44% of Python 3 usage, 3.5 or lower down to 3% environment isolation 54% virtualenv (I assume that includes venv) 32% Docker 22% Conda Web frameworks 46% Flask 43% Django 12% FastAPI … 2% Pyramid :( … Unit testing 49% pytest 28% unittest 13% mock OS 68% Linux, 48% Windows, 29% Mac, 2% BSD, 1% other CI: Gitlab, Jenkins, Travis, CircleCI … (Where’s GH Actions?) Editors: PyCharm, VS Code, Vim, … Lots of other great stuff in there Michael #2: Django Ninja - Fast Django REST Framework via Marcus Sharp and Adam Parkin (Codependent Codr) independently Django Ninja is a web framework for building APIs with Django and Python 3.6+ type hints. This project was heavily inspired by FastAPI (developed by Sebastián Ramírez) Key features: Easy: Designed to be easy to use and intuitive. FAST execution: Very high performance thanks to Pydantic and async support. Fast to code: Type hints and automatic docs lets you focus only on business logic. Standards-based: Based on the open standards for APIs: OpenAPI (previously known as Swagger) and JSON Schema. Django friendly: (obviously) has good integration with the Django core and ORM. Production ready: Used by multiple companies on live projects. Benchmarks are interesting Example api = NinjaAPI() @api.get("/add") def add(request, a: int, b: int): return {"result": a + b} Sebastian #3: Pydantic 1.8 Hypothesis plugin (for property-based testing). Support for [NamedTuple](https://pydantic-docs.helpmanual.io/usage/types/#namedtuple) and [TypedDict](https://pydantic-docs.helpmanual.io/usage/types/#typeddict) in models. Support for [Annotated](https://pydantic-docs.helpmanual.io/usage/schema/#typingannotated-fields) types, e.g.: def some_func(name: Annotated[str, Field(max_length=256)] = 'Bar'): pass Annotated makes default and required values more “correct” in terms of types. E.g. the editor won't assume that a function's parameter is optional because it has a default value of Field(``'``Bar``'``, max_length=256), this will be especially useful for FastAPI dependency functions that could be called directly in other places in the code. Michael #4: Google, Microsoft back Python and Rust programming languages Partially via Will Shanks Google and Microsoft join and strengthen forces with the foundations behind the Python and Rust programming languages The companies will get to help shape their future. Microsoft has joined Mozilla, AWS, Huawei and Google as founding members of the Rust Foundation. Google donated $350,000 to the Python Software Foundation (PSF), making the company the organization's first visionary sponsor. Google is investing in improved PyPI malware detection, better foundational Python tools and services, and hiring a CPython Developer-in-Residence for 2021. Other PSF sponsors include Salesforce, a sustainability sponsor contributing $90,000. Microsoft, Fastly, Bloomberg and Capital One are maintaining sponsors contributing $60,000 apiece. You’ll find Talk Python Training over at the PSF Sponsors as well. Microsoft has shown an interest in Rust, particularly for writing secure code: “Rust programming changes the game when it comes to writing safe systems software” Microsoft is forming a Rust programming team to contribute engineering efforts to the language's ecosystem, focusing on the compiler, core tooling, documentation and more. Brian #5: Semantic Versioning Will Not Save You Hynek Schlawack Version numbers are usually 3 decimals separated by dots. SemVer is Major.Minor.Micro Implied promise is that if you depend on something and anything other than the Major version changes, your code won’t break. In practice, you have to be proactive Have tests with good coverage Pin your dependencies Regularly try to update your dependencies and retest If they pass, pin new versions If not, notify the maintainer of a bug or fix your code Block the versions that don’t work Consequences: ZeroVer Version conflicts mayhem Consider CalVer Sebastian #6: OpenAPI 3.1.0 It was released on February. Now the OpenAPI schemas are in sync and based on the latest version of JSON Schema. That improves compatibility with other tools. E.g. frontend components auto-generated from JSON Schema. Very small details to adjust in Pydantic and FastAPI, but they are actually more “strictly compatible” with OpenAPI 3.1.0, as they were made with the most recent JSON Schema available at the moment. The differences are mainly in one or two very specific corner cases. Note: OpenAPI 3.1.0 might not be Python-specific enough, so, in that case, I have an alternative topic: IDOM, which is more or less React in Python on the server with live syncing with the browser. Extras Michael Installing Python - training.talkpython.fm/installing-python boto3 types update (via Dean Langsam) - seems like boto type annotations is not maintained anymore, and the rabbit hole of github links sends you to *mypy_boto3_builder *(they have a gif example).
