Python 3.11 is now the minimum supported version. This aligns with
the codebase's use of StrEnum (introduced in 3.11) and removes
compatibility shims that were only needed for older versions.
Establish clear separation between user-facing optional dependencies
and developer-only dependency groups:
**Optional Dependencies (user features):**
- watcher: File watching service for batch processing
- webservice: Streamlit-based web UI
- Installable via: uv sync --extra <name> or pip install ocrmypdf[name]
**Dependency Groups (developer tools):**
- test: Testing infrastructure (merged from test + extended_test)
- docs: Documentation building tools
- streamlit-dev: Enhanced Streamlit development tools
- dev: General development tools (mypy, ipykernel)
- Installable via: uv sync --group <name> (uv only, NOT pip)
Breaking changes for developers:
- pip install -e .[test] no longer works → use uv sync --group test
- pip install -e .[docs] no longer works → use uv sync --group docs
- pip install -e .[extended_test] removed → merged into test group
No breaking changes for end users:
- pip install ocrmypdf[watcher] still works
- pip install ocrmypdf[webservice] still works
Updated:
- CI/CD workflows to use uv sync --group test
- Docker images to exclude test dependencies
- Documentation to recommend uv with pip as fallback
- pyproject.toml with clear comments explaining both systems
