# Python 3.13.3-slim-bookworm Upgrade Summary ## Changes Made 1. **Docker Base Image Update** - Updated the base Docker image from the previous Python version to `python:3.13.3-slim-bookworm@sha256:914bf5c12ea40a97a78b2bff97fbdb766cc36ec903bfb4358faf2b74d73b555b` - This update affects both the builder and runtime stages in the multi-stage Dockerfile 2. **Documentation Updates** - Updated `CHANGELOG.md` to document the Python version upgrade - Updated `README.md` to reflect the new Python version requirements (3.13+) - Added specific mention of Python 3.13.3-slim-bookworm in the Docker deployment section 3. **Versioning** - Tagged the repository with `v1.0.0` to mark the Python version upgrade ## Verification Steps Taken 1. **Docker Build Test** - Successfully built the Docker image with Python 3.13.3-slim-bookworm - Command used: `docker build -t asr-got-reimagined:v1.0.0 .` - Build completed without errors 2. **Dependency Compatibility** - All project dependencies installed successfully during the Docker build - Poetry successfully installed version 1.8.2 - All Python packages from `poetry.lock` and `pyproject.toml` were installed without conflicts 3. **Compatibility with Project Requirements** - The `pyproject.toml` already included Python 3.13 in its classifiers - Project requirements specify Python 3.11+ which is compatible with Python 3.13 ## Benefits of the Upgrade 1. **Security Improvements** - Using the latest Python version incorporates security fixes and patches - The slim-bookworm variant provides a secure, minimal Debian base 2. **Performance Enhancements** - Python 3.13 includes performance optimizations over previous versions - The slim variant reduces container size and resource usage 3. **Future Compatibility** - Using a newer Python version extends the support timeline for the project - Ensures compatibility with newer package versions that require Python 3.13+ ## Next Steps 1. **Production Deployment** - Deploy the updated Docker image to production environments - Monitor for any unexpected behavior or compatibility issues 2. **Documentation** - Consider adding a note in the project wiki or documentation about the Python version requirements - Update any CI/CD pipelines to use Python 3.13 for testing and deployment 3. **Future Updates** - Establish a regular cadence for updating the Python base image to incorporate security patches - Consider pinning specific package versions for critical dependencies to ensure stability ## Author - Date: May 18, 2025 - Project: ASR-GoT Reimagined
