# Python Build Tools
Modern Python development tooling using uv, mise, ruff, basedpyright, and pytest.
## Quick Start
### Minimal pyproject.toml
```toml
[project]
name = "my-project"
version = "0.1.0"
requires-python = ">=3.12"
dependencies = ["fastapi", "pydantic"]
[project.optional-dependencies]
dev = ["pytest>=8.0.0", "ruff>=0.8.0", "basedpyright>=1.0.0"]
[build-system]
requires = ["hatchling"]
build-backend = "hatchling.build"
[tool.ruff]
target-version = "py312"
[tool.ruff.lint]
select = ["E", "F", "I", "N", "UP", "RUF"]
[tool.basedpyright]
typeCheckingMode = "strict"
[tool.pytest.ini_options]
testpaths = ["tests"]
```
### Setup Project
```bash
uv init my-project && cd my-project
uv sync
uv add fastapi pydantic
uv add --dev pytest ruff basedpyright
```
## Tool Overview
| Tool | Purpose | Replaces |
|------|---------|----------|
| **uv** | Package management | pip, virtualenv |
| **mise** | Version & tasks | pyenv, asdf |
| **ruff** | Lint & format | black, isort, flake8 |
| **basedpyright** | Type checking | mypy |
| **pytest** | Testing | unittest |
## Common Commands
### Lint and Format
```bash
uv run ruff check --fix .
uv run ruff format .
```
### Type Check
```bash
uv run basedpyright
uv run basedpyright src/main.py
```
### Test
```bash
uv run pytest
uv run pytest --cov=src --cov-report=html
```
### Manage Dependencies
```bash
uv add fastapi
uv add --dev pytest
uv lock --upgrade
uv tree
```
## Mise Configuration
Create `.mise.toml` for consistent development:
```toml
[tools]
python = "3.12"
[tasks.lint]
run = "uv run ruff check --fix ."
[tasks.format]
run = "uv run ruff format ."
[tasks.typecheck]
run = "uv run basedpyright"
[tasks.test]
run = "uv run pytest"
[tasks.check]
depends = ["lint", "format", "typecheck", "test"]
```
Usage:
```bash
mise install
mise run check
```
## Type Hints Example
```python
from decimal import Decimal
from typing import Optional
def calculate_discount(
total: Decimal,
rate: Optional[Decimal] = None
) -> Decimal:
if rate is None:
rate = Decimal("0.1")
return total * rate
```
## Best Practices
1. Use uv for all package management (faster, reliable)
2. Pin Python version with mise
3. Configure tools in pyproject.toml
4. Enable strict type checking
5. Run checks before commit
## References
For detailed configuration and advanced patterns:
- **[references/uv.md](references/uv.md)** - Workspaces, scripts, dependency management
- **[references/ruff.md](references/ruff.md)** - Rules, per-file ignores, pre-commit integration
- **[references/basedpyright.md](references/basedpyright.md)** - Type patterns, generics, protocols
This skill provides a focused toolkit for modern Python projects using uv, mise, ruff, basedpyright, and pytest. It helps you create a minimal pyproject.toml, manage dependencies and environments, enforce linting/formatting, run strict type checks, and configure repeatable test runs. The goal is fast, opinionated developer workflows that prioritize code quality and reproducibility.
The skill scaffolds project configuration (pyproject.toml and .mise.toml) and exposes common commands run through uv and mise. It wires ruff for linting/formatting, basedpyright for strict type checking, and pytest for testing, and it maps tasks to mise so you can run composite checks. Dependency management, locking, and workspace commands are handled through uv to keep environments consistent and reproducible.
Can I use these tools with existing projects?
Yes. Add the dev dependencies to your project, configure pyproject.toml and .mise.toml, then run uv sync and the appropriate mise tasks to adopt the toolchain incrementally.
What replaces my current linters and formatters?
ruff covers formatting and linting responsibilities typically handled by black, isort, flake8, and similar tools, simplifying configuration and speeding up checks.
