automx2 [1] release 2026.2 is now available via PyPI. [2] This release is motivated by technical/maintenance considerations. Previous versions of automx2 used Flask-SQLAlchemy, which has not seen fixes since 2023 and is failing its own tests with modern versions of SQLAlchemy. Gentoo Linux as masked its packaged version for removal in May 2026.
The Pallets-Eco authors have switched their efforts to a successor project called Flask-SQLAlchemy-Lite [3], which, according to the project description, is less ambitious/complex in its goals and explicitly "Intended to be a replacement for Flask-SQLAlchemy." I have rewritten parts of automx2 for Flask-SQLAlchemy-Lite. This should not be noticable from a user perspective, and existing databases can be expected to be usable after updating. However, I recommend creating a database dump before updating to automx2 2026.2 as a precaution. I also took the opportunity to remove dependency on both Alembic and Flask-Migrate. The associated features for DB structure migration have not been used for a couple of years anyway.
