Version ≥ 0.29.2 (Jul 03, 2025):
gget
can now be installed usinguv pip install gget
- All package metadata (version, author, description, etc.) is now managed in setup.cfg for full compatibility with modern tools like uv, pip, and PyPI
- gget now uses a minimal setup.py and is fully PEP 517/518 compatible
gget setup
will now try to useuv pip install
first for speed and modern dependency resolution, and fall back ontopip install
if uv fails or is not available- Users are informed at each step which installer is being used and if a retry is happening
- Note: Some scientific dependencies (e.g., cellxgene-census) may not yet support Python 3.12. If you encounter installation errors, try using Python 3.9 or 3.10. (The pip installation might also still succeed in these cases.)
- All required dependencies are now listed in setup.cfg under install_requires -> Installing gget with
pip install .
oruv pip install .
will automatically install all dependencies
