Changelog

This changelog documents user-facing updates (features, enhancements, fixes, and deprecations) to the modal client library. Patch releases are made on every change.

The client library is still in pre-1.0 development, and sometimes breaking changes are necessary. We try to minimize them and publish deprecation warnings / migration guides in advance, typically providing a transition window of several months.

We appreciate your patience while we speedily work towards a stable release of the client.

Latest

0.72.56 (2025-01-28)

• Deprecated .lookup methods on Modal objects. Users are encouraged to use .from_name instead. In most cases this will be a simple name substitution. See the 1.0 migration guide for more information.

0.72.54 (2025-01-28)

• Fixes bug introduced in v0.72.48 where modal run didn't work with files having global Function.from_name()/Function.lookup()/Cls.from_name()/Cls.lookup() calls.

0.72.48 (2025-01-24)

• Fixes a CLI bug where you couldn't reference functions via a qualified app, e.g. mymodule::{app_variable}.{function_name}.
• The modal run, modal serve and modal shell commands get more consistent error messages in cases where the passed app or function reference isn't resolvable to something that the current command expects.
• Removes the deprecated __getattr__, __setattr__, __getitem__ and __setitem__ methods from modal.App

0.72.39 (2025-01-22)

• Introduced a new public method, .hydrate, for on-demand hydration of Modal objects. This method replaces the existing semi-public .resolve method, which is now deprecated.

0.72.33 (2025-01-20)

• The Image returned by Sandbox.snapshot_filesystem now has object_id and other metadata pre-assigned rather than require loading by subsequent calls to sandboxes or similar to set this data.

0.72.30 (2025-01-18)

• Adds a new oidc_auth_role_arn field to CloudBucketMount for using OIDC authentication to create the mountpoint.
