Installation

Install from PyPI:

$ pipenv install --pre requirementslib

Install from Github:

$ pipenv install -e git+https://github.com/techalchemy/requirementslib.git#egg=requirementslib

Summary

RequirementsLib provides a simple layer for building and interacting with requirements in both the Pipfile format and the requirements.txt format. This library was originally built for converting between these formats in Pipenv.

Usage

Importing a lockfile into your setup.py file

You can use RequirementsLib to import your lockfile into your setup file for including your install_requires dependencies:

from requirementslib import Lockfile
lockfile = Lockfile.create('/path/to/project/dir')
install_requires = lockfile.as_requirements(dev=False)

Interacting with a Pipfile directly

You can also interact directly with a Pipfile:

>>> from requirementslib import Pipfile
>>> pf = Pipfile.load('/home/hawk/git/pypa-pipenv')
>>> pf.sections
[Section(name='packages', requirements=[]), Section(name='dev-packages', requirements=[Requirement(name='pipenv', vcs=None, req=FileRequirement(setup_path=None, path='.', editable=True, uri='file:///home/hawk/git/pypa-pipenv', link=<Link file:///home/hawk/git/pypa-pipenv>, name='pipenv', req=<Requirement: "-e file:///home/hawk/git/pypa-pipenv">), markers='', specifiers=None, index=None, editable=True, hashes=[], extras=None),...]

And you can even write it back out into Pipfile’s native format:

>>> print(pf.dump(to_dict=False))
[packages]

[dev-packages]
pipenv = {path = ".", editable = true}
flake8 = ">=3.3.0,<4"
pytest = "*"
mock = "*"

[scripts]
tests = "bash ./run-tests.sh"

[pipenv]
allow_prereleases = true

Create a requirement object from requirements.txt format

>>> from requirementslib import Requirement
>>> r = Requirement.from_line('-e git+https://github.com/pypa/pipenv.git@master#egg=pipenv')
>>> print(r)
Requirement(name='pipenv', vcs='git', req=VCSRequirement(editable=True, uri='git+https://github.com/pypa/pipenv.git', path=None, vcs='git', ref='master', subdirectory=None, name='pipenv', link=<Link git+https://github.com/pypa/pipenv.git@master#egg=pipenv>, req=<Requirement: "-e git+https://github.com/pypa/pipenv.git@master#egg=pipenv">), markers=None, specifiers=None, index=None, editable=True, hashes=[], extras=[])

>>> r.as_pipfile()
{'pipenv': {'editable': True, 'ref': 'master', 'git': 'https://github.com/pypa/pipenv.git'}}

Or move from Pipfile format to requirements.txt:

>>> r = Requirement.from_pipfile(name='pythonfinder', indexes=[], pipfile={'path': '../pythonfinder', 'editable': True})
>>> r.as_line()
'-e ../pythonfinder'
