Updated default Python environment to 3.12​

We have upgraded the base Python version from 3.8.18 to 3.12.9 as Snowflake no longer supports Python 3.8.

  • numpy: 1.26.4
  • scikit-learn: 1.6.1
  • pip: 25.1.1
  • PyYAML: 6.0.1
  • click: 8.2.0

For dbt versions older than dbt1.9 some packages were pinned to maintain compatibility:

  • dbt-osmosis: 0.12.10
  • yarl: 1.19.0

Additional packages were added to the base Develop workspace image:

  • libgbm1 - A graphics library that improves compatibility with tools that use GPU or graphical rendering.
  • repomix - Helps manage Python package sources more easily, making environments more reliable.
  • uv - A fast, modern alternative to pip and virtualenv for managing Python packages and environments.
