Restrict PyPI publishing to version tags.
workflow_dispatch can run this workflow from a branch. The release job has no tag guard, so that run can publish an untagged build to PyPI.
Remove workflow_dispatch or add if: startsWith(github.ref, 'refs/tags/v') to release.
Proposed fix
release:
name: Publish to PyPI
+ if: startsWith(github.ref, 'refs/tags/v')

Makes sense, but the release.yaml doesn't have this guard either. Still adding it, but worth a second look by the maintainer.

@imphil, the Python workflow now has the required tag guard at Line 118. A branch-dispatched run can build artifacts, but it cannot publish to PyPI.
Your concern about .github/workflows/release.yml is valid. Its workflow_dispatch trigger can run from a branch, and it has no equivalent guard:
- The
releasejob can create a GitHub Release. - The
publishjob can executecargo publish.
The maintainer should add the same tag condition to both jobs, or remove workflow_dispatch if manual release runs are not required.

Wraps the existing parse/diff/render pipeline in a thin pyo3 crate (bindings/python) built with maturin, exposing typdiff.diff() and typdiff.diff_files() as a Python package. diff() takes and returns bytes, matching what typst.compile() expects for inline source. Version is inherited from the workspace so it only needs to be bumped in one place.
Adds a Python CI workflow (maturin build + pip install + pytest) and a release workflow building wheels for linux (x86_64/aarch64/armv7/s390x/ppc64le), macOS, and Windows via PyO3/maturin-action, publishing to PyPI on tag push via trusted publishing.
Adds a pytest.mark.pdf test that pipes typdiff's output through the `typst` package's compile() to produce a real PDF, gracefully skipped via importorskip when the optional `pdf` dependency group isn't installed. CI installs `typst` so the test runs there. Documents the same flow in the README.

@imphil For now, I’d like to keep this repository focused on the Rust library and CLI. Although Trusted Publishing makes the upload itself straightforward, officially supporting a Python package would also mean maintaining the PyO3 bindings, Python compatibility, multi-platform wheels, and a separate public API over time. I’m afraid I can’t commit to that maintenance scope at the moment, so I’d prefer not to merge the Python bindings into this repository. As an alternative, typdiff already outputs Typst source directly: typdiff old.typ new.typ -o diff.typPrebuilt binaries from GitHub Releases can also be installed easily with mise: mise use -g github:sou1118/typdiffI understand that invoking the CLI is not quite the same as an in-process Python API, especially for integration with Thank you again for the contribution and for proposing this integration. |

We are using typst via its Python bindings at https://github.com/messense/typst-py, which works great: no need to install the correct binary for the target architecture, just a "pip install" and a little Python script to do the compilation. Now I'd like to do the same for typdiff!
Turns out that's actually not that hard, and the result is in this PR:
The setup and code closely follows typst-py.
Notes:
typst.compile()expects astrfor a file path, andbytesfor data. That's a bit odd (IMO) and something users can fall into. To make the two libraries match, I madetypdiff.diff()also accept and returnbytes. The alternative would be something liketypst.compile(typdiff.diff(...).encode(), "out.txt"). However, if users forget theencode(), they'd pass the full typst source as file name totypst.compile(), which isn't easy to debug.As test setup, I created a fork with GitHub actions enabled.
