In order to support Python 3.13, we had to migrate to Cython 3.0. This caused some tricky interaction with our Pydantic usage, because Cython 3 uses the from __future__ import annotations semantics, which causes type annotations to be saved as strings.
The end result is that we can't have Language.factory decorated functions in Cython modules anymore, as the Language.factory decorator expects to inspect the signature of the functions and build a Pydantic model. If the function is implemented in Cython, an error is raised because the type is not resolved.
To address this I've moved the factory functions into a new module, spacy.pipeline.factories. I've added __getattr__ importlib hooks to the previous locations, in case anyone was importing these functions directly. The change should have no backwards compatibility implications.
Along the way I've also refactored the registration of functions for the config. Previously these ran as import-time side-effects, using the registry decorator. I've created instead a new module spacy.registrations. When the registry is accessed it calls a function ensure_populated(), which cases the registrations to occur.
I've made a similar change to the Language.factory registrations in the new spacy.pipeline.factories module.
I want to remove these import-time side-effects so that we can speed up the loading time of the library, which can be especially painful on the CLI. I also find that I'm often working to track down the implementations of functions referenced by strings in the config. Having the registrations all happen in one place will make this easier.
With these changes I've fortunately avoided the need to migrate to Pydantic v2 properly --- we're still using the v1 compatibility shim. We might not be able to hold out forever though: Pydantic (reasonably) aren't actively supporting the v1 shims. I put a lot of work into v2 migration when investigating the 3.13 support, and it's definitely challenging. In any case, it's a relief that we don't have to do the v2 migration at the same time as the Cython 3.0/Python 3.13 support.
* Reduce stored lexemes data, move feats to lookups
* Move non-derivable lexemes features (`norm / cluster / prob`) to
`spacy-lookups-data` as lookups
* Get/set `norm` in both lookups and `LexemeC`, serialize in lookups
* Remove `cluster` and `prob` from `LexemesC`, get/set/serialize in
lookups only
* Remove serialization of lexemes data as `vocab/lexemes.bin`
* Remove `SerializedLexemeC`
* Remove `Lexeme.to_bytes/from_bytes`
* Modify normalization exception loading:
* Always create `Vocab.lookups` table `lexeme_norm` for
normalization exceptions
* Load base exceptions from `lang.norm_exceptions`, but load
language-specific exceptions from lookups
* Set `lex_attr_getter[NORM]` including new lookups table in
`BaseDefaults.create_vocab()` and when deserializing `Vocab`
* Remove all cached lexemes when deserializing vocab to override
existing normalizations with the new normalizations (as a replacement
for the previous step that replaced all lexemes data with the
deserialized data)
* Skip English normalization test
Skip English normalization test because the data is now in
`spacy-lookups-data`.
* Remove norm exceptions
Moved to spacy-lookups-data.
* Move norm exceptions test to spacy-lookups-data
* Load extra lookups from spacy-lookups-data lazily
Load extra lookups (currently for cluster and prob) lazily from the
entry point `lg_extra` as `Vocab.lookups_extra`.
* Skip creating lexeme cache on load
To improve model loading times, do not create the full lexeme cache when
loading. The lexemes will be created on demand when processing.
* Identify numeric values in Lexeme.set_attrs()
With the removal of a special case for `PROB`, also identify `float` to
avoid trying to convert it with the `StringStore`.
* Skip lexeme cache init in from_bytes
* Unskip and update lookups tests for python3.6+
* Update vocab pickle to include lookups_extra
* Update vocab serialization tests
Check strings rather than lexemes since lexemes aren't initialized
automatically, account for addition of "_SP".
* Re-skip lookups test because of python3.5
* Skip PROB/float values in Lexeme.set_attrs
* Convert is_oov from lexeme flag to lex in vectors
Instead of storing `is_oov` as a lexeme flag, `is_oov` reports whether
the lexeme has a vector.

* Restructure tag maps for MorphAnalysis changes
Prepare tag maps for upcoming MorphAnalysis changes that allow
arbritrary features.
* Use default tag map rather than duplicating for ca / uk / vi
* Import tag map into defaults for ga
* Modify tag maps so all morphological fields and features are strings
* Move features from `"Other"` to the top level
* Rewrite tuples as strings separated by `","`
* Rewrite morph symbols for fr lemmatizer as strings
* Export MorphAnalysis under spacy.tokens
* Modify morphology to support arbitrary features
Modify `Morphology` and `MorphAnalysis` so that arbitrary features are
supported.
* Modify `MorphAnalysisC` so that it can support arbitrary features and
multiple values per field. `MorphAnalysisC` is redesigned to contain:
* key: hash of UD FEATS string of morphological features
* array of `MorphFeatureC` structs that each contain a hash of `Field`
and `Field=Value` for a given morphological feature, which makes it
possible to:
* find features by field
* represent multiple values for a given field
* `get_field()` is renamed to `get_by_field()` and is no longer `nogil`.
Instead a new helper function `get_n_by_field()` is `nogil` and returns
`n` features by field.
* `MorphAnalysis.get()` returns all possible values for a field as a
list of individual features such as `["Tense=Pres", "Tense=Past"]`.
* `MorphAnalysis`'s `str()` and `repr()` are the UD FEATS string.
* `Morphology.feats_to_dict()` converts a UD FEATS string to a dict
where:
* Each field has one entry in the dict
* Multiple values remain separated by a separator in the value string
* `Token.morph_` returns the UD FEATS string and you can set
`Token.morph_` with a UD FEATS string or with a tag map dict.
* Modify get_by_field to use np.ndarray
Modify `get_by_field()` to use np.ndarray. Remove `max_results` from
`get_n_by_field()` and always iterate over all the fields.
* Rewrite without MorphFeatureC
* Add shortcut for existing feats strings as keys
Add shortcut for existing feats strings as keys in `Morphology.add()`.
* Check for '_' as empty analysis when adding morphs
* Extend helper converters in Morphology
Add and extend helper converters that convert and normalize between:
* UD FEATS strings (`"Case=dat,gen|Number=sing"`)
* per-field dict of feats (`{"Case": "dat,gen", "Number": "sing"}`)
* list of individual features (`["Case=dat", "Case=gen",
"Number=sing"]`)
All converters sort fields and values where applicable.
* expand serialization test for custom token attribute
* add failing test for issue 4849
* define ENT_ID as attr and use in doc serialization
* fix few typos
