In a requirements-*.in file, at the top of the file, are lines with -c and -r flags followed by a requirements-*.in file. Uses relative paths (ignoring URLs).

Say have docs/requirements-pip-tools.in

-r ../requirements/requirements-prod.in
-c ../requirements/requirements-pins-base.in
-c ../requirements/requirements-pins-cffi.in

...

The intent is compiling this would produce docs/requirements-pip-tool.txt

But there is confusion as to which flag to use. It’s non-obvious.

constraint

Subset of requirements features. Intended to restrict package versions. Does not necessarily (might not) install the package!

Does not support:

  • editable mode (-e)

  • extras (e.g. coverage[toml])

Personal preference

  • always organize requirements files in folder(s)

  • don’t prefix requirements files with requirements-, just doing it here

  • DRY principle applies; split out constraints which are shared.

  • logging_strict@programming.devOP

    Strategy --> deflection

    Involve other people, not yourself; reframe the discussion.

    So your predictions are worthless cuz you are unwilling to take on any risk.

    Coding involves risk and those willing to take on risk. A gambling man you are not!

    Can throw shade and FUD around all day long everyday without consequence or care. Cuz u offer nor put any skin in the game.

    Just empty words like a secretary giving a language skill assessment.

    So if i said, i see ghosts and dragons and can shit rainbows out of my butt, you’d be too weak to call the bluff.
