Elpy 1.11.0 released

I just released version 1.11.0 of Elpy, the Emacs Python Development Environment. This is a feature release.

Elpy is an Emacs package to bring powerful Python editing to Emacs. It combines and configures a number of other packages, both written in Emacs Lisp as well as Python.

Quick Installation

Evaluate this:

(require 'package)
(add-to-list 'package-archives
             '("elpy" .
               "https://jorgenschaefer.github.io/packages/"))

Then run M-x package-install RET elpy RET.

Finally, run the following (and add them to your .emacs):

(package-initialize)
(elpy-enable)

Changes in 1.11.0

  • Elpy now supports yapf in addition to autopep8 to format your code.
  • You can now adjust whether Elpy should hide modes from the mode line or not using elpy-remove-modeline-lighter
  • When the new option elpy-disable-backend-error-display is set, Elpy will not show its error pop-up anymore. This can be useful if you run into an annoying bug in Jedi, for example.
  • New command elpy-goto-definition-other-window on C-x 4 M-..
  • Expanding super now gives the short form supported in Python 3.
  • All Rope errors are now caught, as the upstream maintainers did not show interest in distinguishing between malformed input and bugs in their library.
  • Various other bug fixes.
