attrs v20.3.0 Release Notes

Release Date: 2020-11-05 // over 3 years ago

  • Backward-incompatible Changes

    • attr.define(), attr.frozen(), attr.mutable(), and attr.field() remain provisional.

    This release does not change change anything about them and they are already used widely in production though.

    If you wish to use them together with mypy, you can simply drop this plugin <https://gist.github.com/hynek/1e3844d0c99e479e716169034b5fa963#file-attrs_ng_plugin-py>_ into your project.

    Feel free to provide feedback to them in the linked issue #668.

    We will release the attrs namespace once we have the feeling that the APIs have properly settled. #668 <https://github.com/python-attrs/attrs/issues/668>_
