Project revamp #1190
Description
Hey folks, after a long winter I'm back (although with very limited availability) trying to keep this project alive.
I've already built a testing environment base on Docker to help us move faster when testing and trying to work on the project.
But there is still a lot to be done.
Some of our dependencies (such as pylama) has been a long time without updates, and this is having its priced (lack of support, depending on deprecated stuff, etc).
So I'd like to know from the community which would be the best approach. Trying to vendor more packages to keep this project "minimally stable" or removing some of these old dependencies in favor of newer tools.
More specifically, should we try to replace most of the tools with ruff and mypy ? Do you think we would need other tools other than these two to have a quite complete setup?
Also, and this is very important. I will need help to do these migrations. As I've said, my availability is very restricted nowadays.
Or are you using new vim plugins that can easily replace this one?
As I haven´t been writing too much python code recently, I admit I'm bit outdated on the "vim+python ecossystem news".

I'd go with ruff and pyright at the moment, though pyrefly is starting to look good (I feel it currently lacks enough configurability and a bit of functionality to use on general codebases)

I'm really just using vim-lsp and vim-lsp-settings now. Python-mode could probably be rewritten as a small configuration wrapper on top of these?

I use
YouCompleteMefor Python completion and suggestions, but I really really like python-mode for the increased syntax highlighting, linting, and syntax checking.I think moving towards using
ruffwould be great (I suppose with the new LSP feature) since that would probably help reduce the maintenance of python-mode.diraol commentedon Nov 17, 2025
Hey folks, I've proposed a refactor of the project using ruff. Would you mind trying it to check both performance and integration of ruff with python-mode?
I haven't been writing much python-code, so it is going a bit harder for me to be able to properly test it.
It's here.
ps.: For now I've left Ruff out of the project source, so it needs to be installed manually on the system.

I will test starting in December as a daily driver, then provide feedback
