Highlights
The main features of this release are:
- The departure of Python 2.7 (enjoy your retirement!),
- and the arrival of Python 3.11.
We had loftier goals feature-wise, but didn't want to block others embracing Python 3.11.
❤️ Huge thanks to my GitHub sponsors, Tidelift subscribers, and Ko-fi buyers! ❤️
None of my projects would exist in their current form without you!
Full Changelog
Backwards-incompatible Changes
-
Python 2.7 is not supported anymore.
Dealing with Python 2.7 tooling has become too difficult for a volunteer-run project.
We have supported Python 2 more than 2 years after it was officially discontinued and feel that we have paid our dues. All version up to 21.4.0 from December 2021 remain fully functional, of course. #936
-
The deprecated
cmp
attribute ofattrs.Attribute
has been removed. This does not affect the cmp argument toattr.s
that can be used as a shortcut to set eq and order at the same time. #939
Changes
- Instantiation of frozen slotted classes is now faster. #898
- If an
eq
key is defined, it is also used before hashing the attribute. #909 - Added
attrs.validators.min_len()
. #916 attrs.validators.deep_iterable()
's member_validator argument now also accepts a list of validators and wraps them in anattrs.validators.and_()
. #925- Added missing type stub re-imports for
attrs.converters
andattrs.filters
. #931 - Added missing stub for
attr(s).cmp_using()

is not missing the attribute, expected options, and the value it got anymore. #951- Python 3.11 is now officially supported. #969
