show_versions#

scikitplot.show_versions(mode='stdout')[source]#

Print or return debugging information about the system, Python, dependencies, and hardware.

Parameters:
mode{‘stdout’, ‘dict’, ‘yaml’, ‘rich’}, default=’stdout’

  • ‘stdout’: prints information to console using rich (if available) or plain text.

  • ‘dict’: returns the information as a nested dictionary.

  • ‘yaml’: returns the information in YAML format (requires PyYAML).

  • ‘rich’: prints formatted output using rich library.

Returns:
version_datastr, dict or None

If mode='dict', returns a dictionary of version information. If mode='yaml', returns a string of version information. Otherwise, returns None.

Parameters:

mode (str)

Return type:

Optional[dict[str, any]]

Notes

Useful for debugging and issue reporting.

  • is_free_threaded_build -> capability / ABI

  • is_gil_enabled -> runtime state

  • is_running_no_gil -> effective execution mode

Python | is_free_threaded_build | is_gil_enabled | is_running_no_gil |
———————- | ———————–: | —————: | ——————: |
3.8-3.12 | False | True | False |
3.13-3.14 regular | False | True | False |
3.13-3.14 FT + GIL ON | True | True | False |
3.13-3.14 FT + GIL OFF | True | False | True |
3.15+ FT + GIL OFF | True | False | True |
