pip-check-reqs 2.5.3

Sample tox.ini configuration

To make your life easier, copy something like this into your tox.ini:

[testenv:pip-check-reqs]
deps=-rrequirements.txt
commands=
    pip-missing-reqs --ignore-file=sample/tests/* sample
    pip-extra-reqs --ignore-file=sample/tests/* sample

Excluding test files (or others) from this check

Your test files will sometimes be present in the same directory as your application source (“sample” in the above examples). The requirements for those tests generally should not be in the requirements.txt file, and you don’t want this tool to generate false hits for those.

You may exclude those test files from your check using the –ignore-file option (shorthand is -f). Multiple instances of the option are allowed.

Excluding modules from the check

If your project has modules which are conditionally imported, or requirements which are conditionally included, you may exclude certain modules from the check by name (or glob pattern) using –ignore-module (shorthand is -m):

# ignore the module spam
pip-missing-reqs --ignore-module=spam sample
# ignore the whole package spam as well
pip-missing-reqs --ignore-module=spam --ignore-module=spam.* sample

Using pyproject.toml instead of requirements.txt

If your project uses pyproject.toml instead of requirements.txt, you can use an external tool like pdm to convert it to requirements.txt:

# requires `pip install pdm`
pdm export --pyproject > requirements.txt

Then you can use pip-missing-reqs and pip-extra-reqs as usual.

With Thanks To

Josh Hesketh – who refactored code and contributed the pip-extra-reqs tool.

Wil Cooley – who handled the removal of normalize_name and fixed some bugs.

2.5.0

• Support Python 3.10.

• Remove support for Python 3.8.

2.4.3

• Improves performance on Python 3.11.

2.4.2

• Added support for Python 3.11.

• Added python_requires to metadata; from now on, releases of pip-check-reqs are marked as compatible with Python 3.8.0 and up.

• Made –version flag show interpretter version and path to the package which pip-check-reqs is running from, similar to information shown by pip –version.

• -V is now an alias of –version.

2.3.2

• Fixed support for pip < 21.3

2.3.1

• Fixed –skip-incompatible skipping other requirements too.

• Support pip >= 21.3

2.3.0

• Support pip >= 21.2.1

2.2.2

• AST parsing failures will now report tracebacks with a proper filename for the parsed frame, instead of <unknown>.

2.2.1

• Python source is now always read using utf-8, even if default encoding for reading files is set otherwise.

2.2.0

• Added –skip-incompatible flag to pip-extra-reqs, which makes it ignore requirements with environment markers that are incompatible with the current environment.

• Added –requirements-file flag to pip-extra-reqs and pip-missing-reqs commands. This flag makes it possible to specify a path to the requirements file. Previously, “requirements.txt” was always used.

• Fixed some of the logs not being visible with -d and -v flags.

2.1.1

• Bug fix: Though Python 2 support was removed from the source code, the published wheel was still universal. The published wheel now explicitly does not support Python 2. Please use version 2.0.4 for Python 2.

• Remove support for Python 2. Please use an older version of this tool if you require that support.

• Remove requirement for setuptools.
