## Summary
uv run --directory <path> means that one doesn't have to change to a
project's directory to run programs from it. It makes it possible to use
projects as if they are tool installations.
To support this, first the code reading .python-version was updated so
that
it can read such markers outside the current directory. Note the minor
change this causes (if I'm right), described in the commit.
## Test Plan
One test has been added.
## --directory
Not sure what the name of the argument should be, but it's following uv
sync's directory for now.
Other alternatives could be "--project". Uv run and uv tool run should
probably find common agreement on this (relevant for project-locked
tools).
I've implemented this same change in Rye, some time ago, and then we
went
with --pyproject `<`path to pyproject.toml file`>`. I think using
pyproject.toml file path and not directory was probably a mistake, an
overgeneralization one doesn't need.
## Summary
Adds a `--relocatable` CLI arg to `uv venv`. This flag does two things:
* ensures that the associated activation scripts do not rely on a
hardcoded
absolute path to the virtual environment (to the extent possible; `.csh`
and
`.nu` left as-is)
* persists a `relocatable` flag in `pyvenv.cfg`.
The flag in `pyvenv.cfg` in turn instructs the wheel `Installer` to
create script
entrypoints in a relocatable way (use `exec` trick + `dirname $0` on
POSIX;
use relative path to `python[w].exe` on Windows).
Fixes: #3863
## Test Plan
* Relocatable console scripts covered as additional scenarios in
existing test cases.
* Integration testing of boilerplate generation in `venv`.
* Manual testing of `uv venv` with and without `--relocatable`
## Summary
If you have an executable path on a network share path (like
`\\some-host\some-share\...\python.exe`), canonicalizing it adds the
`\\?` prefix, but dunce cannot safely strip it.
This PR changes the Windows logic to avoid canonicalizing altogether. We
don't really expect symlinks on Windows, so it seems unimportant to
resolve them.

## Summary
Similiar to https://github.com/astral-sh/rye/pull/680, I have made a
major refactor to the `fetch-download-metadata.py` script.
Some notable changes:
- Use PEP 723 inline scripts
- Fully type annotated the script
- Implemented async HTTP fetching
- Introduced a `Finder` base class and move finder logic under
`CPythonFinder` subclass, which will make it easier to add a
`PyPyFinder` later.
- Instead of fetching `xxx.sha256` for each file, the script now fetches
a single `SHA256SUMS` file containing checksums for all files in the
release.
As a result, the script now takes around 10 seconds instead of 10+
minutes.
## Plan for Future PRs
- [ ] Implement the `PyPyFinder`
- [ ] Add an GitHub Action to run `fetch-download-metadata.py` daily and
create PR automatically
## Test Plan
```sh
cargo run -- run --isolated -- ./crates/uv-python/fetch-download-metadata.py
```

## Summary
Currently, `uv` refuses to install anything on GraalPy. This is
currently blocking GraalPy testing with cibuildwheel, since manylinux
includes both `uv` and `graalpy` (but doesn't test with `uv`), whereas
cibuildwheel defaults to `uv`. See e.g.
2750618295
where it gives
```
+ python -m build /project/sample_proj --wheel --outdir=/tmp/cibuildwheel/built_wheel --installer=uv
* Creating isolated environment: venv+uv...
* Using external uv from /usr/local/bin/uv
* Installing packages in isolated environment:
- setuptools >= 40.8.0
> /usr/local/bin/uv pip install "setuptools >= 40.8.0"
< error: Unknown implementation: `graalpy`
```
## Test Plan
I simply based the GraalPy support on PyPy and added some small tests.
I'm open to discussing how to test this. GraalPy is available for
manylinux images and with setup-python, so we should be able to add
tests against it to the CI. I locally confirmed by installing `uv` into
a GraalPy venv and then trying things like `uv pip install Pillow` and
testing those extensions.
Search for all `python3.x` minor versions in PATH, skipping those we
already know we can use.
For example, let's say `python` and `python3` are Python 3.10. When a
user requests `>= 3.11`, we still need to find a `python3.12` in PATH.
We do so with a regex matcher.
Fixes#4709
## Summary
Resolves#5139
`PythonInstallationKey` was sorted as a string, which caused `3.8` to
appear before `3.11`. This update changes the sorting of
`PythonInstallationKey` to be a descending order by version.

```
## Summary
The basic strategy:
- When the user does `uv tool run`, we resolve the `from` and `with`
requirements (always).
- After resolving, we generate a hash of the requirements. For now, I'm
just converting to a lockfile and hashing _that_, but that's an
implementation detail.
- Once we have a hash, we _also_ hash the interpreter.
- We then store environments in
`${CACHE_DIR}/${INTERPRETER_HASH}/${RESOLUTION_HASH}`.
Some consequences:
- We cache based on the interpreter, so if you request a different
Python, we'll create a new environment (even if they're compatible).
This has the nice side-effect of ensuring that we don't use environments
for interpreters that were later deleted.
- We cache the `from` and `with` together. In practice, we may want to
cache them separately, then layer them? But this is also an
implementation detail that we could change later.
- Because we use the lockfile as the cache key, we will invalidate the
cache when the format changes. That seems ok, but we could improve it in
the future by generating a stable hash from a lockfile that's
independent of the schema.
Closes https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/issues/4752.
This fell out of my investigation of
https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/issues/4774 but the bug was fixed by the
reporter in #4775
- Adds support for `GH_TOKEN` authentication again — basically needed to
avoid rate limits when hacking on this.
- Clarifies some handling and logging of flavors
Fix#4774.
## Summary
Change the python interpreter for linux installed with `uv python` to an
optimized one.
## Test Plan
I ran the following command on Linux (glibc) to confirm that an
optimized (not debug built) Python is installed.
```bash
# install python
uv python install 3.12.3
# check build type
uv run python -c "import sysconfig;print(sysconfig.get_config_var('Py_DEBUG'))"
0
```
Whew this is a lot.
The user-facing changes are:
- `uv toolchain` to `uv python` e.g. `uv python find`, `uv python
install`, ...
- `UV_TOOLCHAIN_DIR` to` UV_PYTHON_INSTALL_DIR`
- `<UV_STATE_DIR>/toolchains` to `<UV_STATE_DIR>/python` (with
[automatic
migration](https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/pull/4735/files#r1663029330))
- User-facing messages no longer refer to toolchains, instead using
"Python", "Python versions" or "Python installations"
The internal changes are:
- `uv-toolchain` crate to `uv-python`
- `Toolchain` no longer referenced in type names
- Dropped unused `SystemPython` type (previously replaced)
- Clarified the type names for "managed Python installations"
- (more little things)
