Add spaCy #146
Description
@ngoldbaum Please have a member of the spaCy team complete the missing items from the checklist to get started.
- Create an account on Anaconda Cloud
- Reply here with the link to your account
- Make a new Anaconda Cloud API token with permissions described in https://scientific-python.org/specs/spec-0004/#process-for-adding-new-projects
- Save the API token as a repo GitHub Actions secret named
ANACONDA_ORG_UPLOAD_TOKEN - Direct @scientific-python/nightly-wheels-developers to a
spacynightly wheel for us to upload to create the package in the registry - Verify that we have added you to the
spacyteam "Group" on https://anaconda.org/scientific-python-nightly-wheels - Verify that we have added the package
scientific-python-nightly-wheels/spacyto thespacyteam "Group"
If you'd also like to use the scientific/upload-nightly-action GitHub Action please check out the action repo's README. If you need to collect wheels from different CI jobs, consider creating a new GitHub Actions workflow with logic similar to matplotlib's or Awkward's.
If you have any questions please just ask here!

Related: @ngoldbaum, given your Gist (https://gist.github.com/ngoldbaum/f7f7971f37744a455e10efc3f74b355a) I've uploaded placeholder wheels for:
spacy,murmurhash,cymem,thinc,srsly,preshed,marisa-trie, andblis. I'll need to look later if this was all of them that were needed, a subset of them, or more. Regardless, if you can also note who should be maintainers for groups associated with them that would be useful.crusaderky commentedon Nov 21, 2025
marisa-trieis a small third-party project that is probably not worth adding to the bunch. I don't expect much further development to it.preshed,cymemandmurmurhashare small packages that won't see much further development to the best of my knowledge. Adding nightly wheels may be overkill.srslyis becoming a pure-Python package, hopefully (Unvendor all libraries explosion/srsly#120)spacy,thinc,blis) looks complete to me.ngoldbaum commentedon Nov 21, 2025
Thanks Guido! @matthewfeickert it looks like I was a little over-eager in suggesting packages to upload. Is it alright if we restrict the scope to just these three?
matthewfeickert commentedon Nov 21, 2025
@ngoldbaum that's fine. We just need to know what maintainer(s) is(are) going to be responsible for them and their username(s).

Created account
crusaderky. Later we'll need to migrate ownerhsip to SpaCy's maintainers (@honnibal)matthewfeickert commentedon Nov 24, 2025
There can be multiple maintainers on a package group team, so while we'll need @honnibal's Anaconda cloud username we don't need to remove you, @crusaderky, unless you want to.

@crusaderky, you should be good to go for uploading nightly wheels to https://anaconda.org/scientific-python-nightly-wheels/spacy, https://anaconda.org/scientific-python-nightly-wheels/thinc, and https://anaconda.org/scientific-python-nightly-wheels/blis. So once you can verify that works please let us know and we'll close this out.

blis wheels added to CI and uploaded!
thinc and spacy to go.
matthewfeickert commentedon Dec 9, 2025
Awesome! https://anaconda.org/channels/scientific-python-nightly-wheels/packages/blis/overview

👋 @ngoldbaum @crusaderky ping on this. Also note that
bliswheels were not uploaded within the cleaning period and are now deleted. (c.f. #175 which will help avoid this in the future.)ngoldbaum commentedon Sep 3, 2026
In the end the client who was setting out priorities decided not to pursue work on spacy and thinc. Maybe in the future someone could work on this but right now our team can't devote time to it.
Sorry for the poor communication and letting this hang.
matthewfeickert commentedon Sep 3, 2026
@ngoldbaum thanks for the update! That's all fine. We'll close this out for now but if someone really is interested in getting spaCy on we can follow up.
