  • FEATURE: Prepends empty string to sys.path in Wine Python environment, allowing to import modules from the current working directory when running a Windows build of Python <= 3.10.
  • FEATURE: New configuration parameter no_pth_file, allowing to work around CPython PR #31542 in CPython >= 3.11. The PR sets safe_path to 1 thus avoiding to prepend an empty string to sys.path if a pth-file is present.

  • FEATURE: Dropped support for Python 3.6.
  • FIX: Internal paths were not updated when API calls were used, resulting in bugs in subsequent API calls expecting the paths to be changed.
  • FIX: Dropped requests as a dependency in favor or standard library's urllib for compatibility with zugbruecke.
  • FIX: Configuration export to dict broken due to false type annotation.
  • FIX: CI pipeline, Wine installation.
  • DEV: Moved from setuptools to flit for packaging.
  • DEV: Cleanups in documentation configuration for younger versions of Sphinx.

  • FEATURE: Added support for Python 3.9 and 3.10.
  • FEATURE: Dropped support for Python 3.4 and 3.5.
  • FEATURE: Exposed parser for CPython versions, see wenv.PythonVersion.
  • FEATURE: New functions for querying available Windows Embeddable Python builds from python.org/downloads, see wenv.get_available_python_builds and wenv.get_latest_python_build.
  • FEATURE: Experimental support for ARM64 added.
  • FEATURE: New command for showing wenv's version: wenv version
  • FIX: Wine Python can distinctly refer to and handle alpha, beta, release-candidate and stable builds of CPython.
  • FIX: Error handling in package listing for Wine Python environments was broken.
  • FIX: Python version parser could not handle Windows ARM64 builds.
  • FIX: Configuration expected in /etc/.wenv.json and /etc/wenv.json, see #15. The support for /etc/.wenv.json will be removed in a future release.
  • FIX: The names of wine binaries/commands can be configured for special cases like RedHat/Fedora/CentOS wine packages, see zugbruecke#70.
  • FIX: Configuration module, wenv.EnvConfig, is now properly documented and actually usable from outside wenv.
  • DOCS: Hugely improved.

Feature and bug fix release.

  • FEATURE: wenv init can be used offline. A cache for installation files was added, see #1. wenv cache fills the cache automatically (internet connection required), WENV_OFFLINE=true wenv init runs the initialization of the actual Wine Python environment offline. Offline functionality can be configured through the new configuration parameters prefix, offline, cache and packages. See #1.
  • FEATURE: Added new configuration parameter wineinstallprefix allowing custom wine installation paths, see #10.
  • FEATURE: wenv now not only exposes python.exe but also pythonw.exe.
  • FEATURE: New APIs: Env.install_package, Env.uninstall_package, Env.list_packages
  • FIX: Using requests instead of urllib for loading components. Removed certifi workaround.
  • FIX: For user installations, sys.prefix is not the right place to put shared resources. site.USER_BASE should be used instead, see #4.
  • FIX: wenv init would trigger Wine's "update prefix" message window even when used in scripts. Now suppressed, see #5.
  • FIX: wenv pip does not warn anymore that exe-files are not in PATH, see #6.
  • FIX: wenv help only shows python command if the Python interpreter is actually available.
  • API: Environment class is exported as Env. env is deprecated and will be removed.
  • API: The constructor of the environment class expects keyword arguments matching configuration options. The use of a parameter dictionary is deprecated and support will be removed.

First release.

wenv broken out of zugbruecke and turned into an independent package. The following changes were made since zugbruecke 0.0.14.

OLD NEW
wine-python wenv python
wine-pip wenv pip
wine-pytest wenv pytest
#!/usr/bin/env wine-python #!/usr/bin/env _wenv_python
{"version": "3.5.3"} {"pythonversion": "3.7.4"}

The above significant change was mandatory for allowing to cleanup a lot of old code and to remove long-standing bugs.

The shell scripts wine-python, wine-pip and wine-pytest have been removed. Their functionality was consolidated into a single new script, wenv. One can now call wenv python, wenv pip and wenv pytest. This change was necessary for allowing a more generic interface to entry points of arbitrary third party packages. Run wenv help for more information.

The version configuration parameter for controlling the version of Wine Python has been renamed to pythonversion.

Wine 2.x and 3.x are no longer supported. Please use Wine 4.x or later.

On older versions of Linux such as Ubuntu 14.04 alias Trusty Tahr (released 2014), you may observe errors when running wenv python. Most commonly, they will present themselves as OSError: [WinError 6] Invalid handle: 'z:\\... triggered by calling os.listdir on a symbolic link ("symlink") to a folder.

wenv will use semantic versioning. Breaking changes will be indicated by increasing the first version number, the major version. Going for example from 0.x.0 to 1.0.0 or going from 1.y.0 to 2.0.0 therefore indicates a breaking change.

  • FEATURE: Allow -h and --help as alternatives to help.
  • FEATURE: wineprefix, winedebug and pythonprefix become configuration parameters definable by users allowing custom wine prefixes, wine debug levels and Python installation paths, see issue zugbruecke#44.
  • FEATURE: All configuration parameters can be overridden with individual environment variables.
  • FEATURE: Introduced new exception types specific to wenv. Meaningful exception are now raised throughout the package.
  • FEATURE: Added official support for CPython 3.8, see zugbruecke#56.
  • FEATURE: Wine Python can be based on beta versions and release candidates of CPython.
  • FIX: wine-pip previously would, on every launch, download get-pip.py and try to install it first before running - even if pip was already installed. wenv pip does not show this behavior anymore.
  • FIX: wine-python, wine-pip and wenv pytest implicitly depended on bash. This dependency has been removed in their successor wenv, see zugbruecke#48.
  • FIX: wine-python would fail on systems with old versions of libssl or broken SSL certificate store configurations, see zugbruecke#51. For details on the implemented workaround, see installation instructions in the documentation.
  • The configuration module was refactored and made clearer and faster, allowing to implement new options.
