new python versions

[christelann...@gmail.com]

Dear Annif-team,

While I may not be the best programmer (and never will be) I am using annif in my current project and I am working on getting my publication(s) finalized. However, I am running into more and more errors with updates of Python. Do you have pointers how to avoid that/ how is Annif dealing with these updates? My book is coming out next year and if I am not mistaken, most of annif runs on a python version that will no longer be supported by that time (which makes me very nervous).

Looking forward to pointers!

Best,
Annemieke

Dear Annemieke,

I think you don't need to worried about this! The most recent Annif release (version 1.4) supports Python versions 3.10, 3.11, 3.12 and 3.13 (and Annif 1.5 could support 3.14). We have a formal(ish) policy that Annif should support at least three Python versions.

Could you check out which Annif and Python versions you are using, by running (in the virtual environment for Annif)

    

    annif --version

    python --version

and please also copy-paste here the error messages you see, and the commands you ran that make them appear.

Best,

-Juho
