Release Notes

astral-sh/setup-uv (astral-sh/setup-uv)

v7.6.0: 🌈 Fetch uv from Astral's mirror by default

Compare Source

Changes

We now default to download uv from releases.astral.sh.
This means by default we don't hit the GitHub API at all and shouldn't see any rate limits and timeouts any more.

v7.5.0: 🌈 Use astral-sh/versions as version provider

Compare Source

No more rate-limits

This release addresses a long-standing source of timeouts and rate-limit failures in setup-uv.

Previously, the action resolved version identifiers like 0.5.x by iterating over available uv releases via the GitHub API to find the best match. In contrast, latest and exact versions such as 0.5.0 skipped version resolution entirely and downloaded uv directly.

The manifest-file input was an earlier attempt to improve this. It allows providing an url to a file that lists available versions, checksums, and even custom download URLs. The action also shipped with such a manifest.
However, because that bundled file could become outdated whenever new uv releases were published, the action still had to fall back to the GitHub API in many cases.

This release solves the problem by sourcing version data from Astral’s versions repository via the raw content endpoint:

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/astral-sh/versions/refs/heads/main/v1/uv.ndjson

By using the raw endpoint instead of the GitHub API, version resolution no longer depends on API authentication and is much less likely to run into rate limits or timeouts.

[!TIP]
The next section is only interesting for users of the manifest-file input

The manifest-file input lets you override that source with your own URL, for example to test custom uv builds or alternate download locations.

The manifest file must be in NDJSON format, where each line is a JSON object representing a version and its artifacts. For example:

{"version":"0.10.7","artifacts":[{"platform":"x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu","variant":"default","url":"https://example.com/uv-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.tar.gz","archive_format":"tar.gz","sha256":"..."}]}
{"version":"0.10.6","artifacts":[{"platform":"x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu","variant":"default","url":"https://example.com/uv-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.tar.gz","archive_format":"tar.gz","sha256":"..."}]}

[!WARNING]
The old format still works but is deprecated. A warning will be logged when you use it.

v7.2.0: 🌈 add outputs python-version and python-cache-hit

Compare Source

Changes

Among some minor typo fixes and quality of life features for developers of actions the main feature of this release are new outputs:

  • python-version: The Python version that was set (same content as existing UV_PYTHON)
  • python-cache-hit: A boolean value to indicate the Python cache entry was found

While implementing this it became clear, that it is easier to handle the Python binaries in a separate cache entry. The added benefit for users is that the "normal" cache containing the dependencies can be used in all runs no matter if these cache the Python binaries or not.

[!NOTE]
This release will invalidate caches that contain the Python binaries. This happens a single time.

v7.1.6: 🌈 add OS version to cache key to prevent binary incompatibility

Compare Source

Changes

This release will invalidate your cache existing keys!

The os version e.g. ubuntu-22.04 is now part of the cache key. This prevents failing builds when a cache got populated with wheels built with different tools (e.g. glibc) than are present on the runner where the cache got restored.

v7.1.5: 🌈 allow setting cache-local-path without enable-cache: true

Compare Source

Changes

#​612 fixed a faulty behavior where this action set UV_CACHE_DIR even though enable-cache was false. It also fixed the cases were the cache dir is already configured in a settings file like pyproject.toml or UV_CACHE_DIR was already set. Here the action shouldn't overwrite or set UV_CACHE_DIR.

These fixes introduced an unwanted behavior: You can still set cache-local-path but this action didn't do anything. This release fixes that.

You can now use cache-local-path to automatically set UV_CACHE_DIR even when enable-cache is false (or gets set to false by default e.g. on self-hosted runners)

v7.1.0: 🌈 Support all the use cases

Compare Source

Changes

Support all the use cases!!!
... well, that we know of.

This release adds support for some use cases that most users don't encounter but are useful for e.g. people running Gitea.

The input resolution-strategy lets you use the lowest possible version of uv from a version range. Useful if you want to test your tool with different versions of uv.

If you use activate-environment the path to the activated venv is now also exposed under the output venv.

Downloaded python installations can now also be uploaded to the GitHub Actions cache backend. Useful if you are running in act and have configured your own backend and don't want to download python again, and again over a slow internet connection.

Finally the path to installed python interpreters is now added to the PATH on Windows.
