- Removes Codespell from deps, docs, and `Makefile`s
- Python version requirements in all `pyproject.toml` files now use the
`~=` (compatible release) specifier
- All dependency groups and main dependencies now use explicit lower and
upper bounds, reducing potential for breaking changes
Fixes#32747
SpaCy integration test fixture was trying to use pip to download the
SpaCy language model (`en_core_web_sm`), but uv-managed environments
don't include pip by default. Fail test if not installed as opposed to
downloading.
## Description
This PR adds support for custom header patterns in
`MarkdownHeaderTextSplitter`, allowing users to define non-standard
Markdown header formats (like `**Header**`) and specify their hierarchy
levels.
**Issue:** Fixes#22738
**Dependencies:** None - this change has no new dependencies
**Key Changes:**
- Added optional `custom_header_patterns` parameter to support
non-standard header formats
- Enable splitting on patterns like `**Header**` and `***Header***`
- Maintain full backward compatibility with existing usage
- Added comprehensive tests for custom and mixed header scenarios
## Example Usage
```python
from langchain_text_splitters import MarkdownHeaderTextSplitter
headers_to_split_on = [
("**", "Chapter"),
("***", "Section"),
]
custom_header_patterns = {
"**": 1, # Level 1 headers
"***": 2, # Level 2 headers
}
splitter = MarkdownHeaderTextSplitter(
headers_to_split_on=headers_to_split_on,
custom_header_patterns=custom_header_patterns,
)
# Now **Chapter 1** is treated as a level 1 header
# And ***Section 1.1*** is treated as a level 2 header
```
## Testing
- ✅ Added unit tests for custom header patterns
- ✅ Added tests for mixed standard and custom headers
- ✅ All existing tests pass (backward compatibility maintained)
- ✅ Linting and formatting checks pass
---
The implementation provides a flexible solution while maintaining the
simplicity of the existing API. Users can continue using the splitter
exactly as before, with the new functionality being entirely opt-in
through the `custom_header_patterns` parameter.

Ensures proper reStructuredText formatting by adding the required blank
line before closing docstring quotes, which resolves the "Block quote
ends without a blank line; unexpected unindent" warning.
**TL;DR much of the provided `Makefile` targets were broken, and any
time I wanted to preview changes locally I either had to refer to a
command Chester gave me or try waiting on a Vercel preview deployment.
With this PR, everything should behave like normal.**
Significant updates to the `Makefile` and documentation files, focusing
on improving usability, adding clear messaging, and fixing/enhancing
documentation workflows.
### Updates to `Makefile`:
#### Enhanced build and cleaning processes:
- Added informative messages (e.g., "📚 Building LangChain
documentation...") to makefile targets like `docs_build`, `docs_clean`,
and `api_docs_build` for better user feedback during execution.
- Introduced a `clean-cache` target to the `docs` `Makefile` to clear
cached dependencies and ensure clean builds.
#### Improved dependency handling:
- Modified `install-py-deps` to create a `.venv/deps_installed` marker,
preventing redundant/duplicate dependency installations and improving
efficiency.
#### Streamlined file generation and infrastructure setup:
- Added caching for the LangServe README download and parallelized
feature table generation
- Added user-friendly completion messages for targets like `copy-infra`
and `render`.
#### Documentation server updates:
- Enhanced the `start` target with messages indicating server start and
URL for local documentation viewing.
---
### Documentation Improvements:
#### Content clarity and consistency:
- Standardized section titles for consistency across documentation
files.

#### Enhanced workflows:
- Updated instructions for building and viewing documentation locally,
including tips for specifying server ports and handling API reference
previews.

### Minor Changes:
- Added support for a new package name (`langchain_v1`) in the API
documentation generation script.
- Fixed minor capitalization and formatting issues in documentation
files.
