UV Refactor with Docker CPU

[alexnorell]

Key Changes

• Migrated from setup.py to pyproject.toml for modern Python package management
• Optimized Docker build process with multi-stage builds
• Consolidated and updated dependency management
• Removed redundant configuration files

Details

Package Management

• Replaced setup.py with pyproject.toml for package configuration and dependency management
• Introduced UV package manager for faster and more reliable dependency installation
• Removed .isort.cfg and pytest.ini in favor of consolidated config in pyproject.toml

Docker Optimization

• Optimized Dockerfile.onnx.cpu:
  • Switched to slim Python base image
  • Implemented multi-stage build to reduce final image size
  • Consolidated ENV variables
  • Updated to Python 3.13

Dependency Updates

• Updated and standardized dependency versions across requirements files
• Loosened version constraints on several packages while maintaining compatibility
• Dependencies are now properly categorized in pyproject.toml under optional features

Technical Notes

• Uses hatchling as the build backend
• Maintains all existing optional dependencies but organizes them better
• Dockerfile now uses UV for more efficient package installation

This change modernizes our Python package management approach and optimizes our container builds while maintaining all existing functionality.

Implementation Details

• Replaced multiple requirements.txt files with pyproject.toml optional dependencies
• Introduced multi-stage Docker build to optimize image size
• Consolidated isort and pytest configurations into pyproject.toml
• Updated dependency constraints to be more flexible while maintaining stability

are we duplicating these here and in the requirements.*.txt files? Is there a way to make sure we can keep them in sync or maybe we wouldnt need the requirement files anymore?

[alexnorell]

This removes the needs for requirements.txt. Didn't remove them yet since I'm not done with the migration of the dockerfiles.

[grzegorz-roboflow]

are we confident this files should be removed?

[grzegorz-roboflow]

Inference is not yet compatible with python 3.13; lets use 3.12 instead

Suggested change

	FROM python:3.13-slim AS builder
	FROM python:3.12-slim AS builder

[grzegorz-roboflow]

I'd vote for restoring previous way of listing dependencies

[grzegorz-roboflow]

since we are making quite substantial change here, I'd also vote for creating venv for the project and installing everything there; this will also result in all dependencies installed in isolated directory which should make it easier if we wanted to copy between stages

Suggested change

	FROM python:3.13-slim
	FROM python:3.12-slim

[grzegorz-roboflow]

I don't think this file should be deleted
