Compiling the dependencies

We're using pip-tools to manage our dependencies.

Notes

• So the main dependencies are in requirements.in
• The dev dependencies are in dev-requirements.in . Please note that this file starts with -c requirements.txt This tells pip-compile to take into consideration the requirements from that file when compiling the dev dependencies
• IMPORTANT ! The owner of the project folder needs to be the same as the user that runs the pip-compile and pip-sync commands. Otherwise you can get RemoteNotFoundError errors when pip tries to use vcs (git).

Compilation steps

1. Make sure to have pip-tools installed:

   • FOR PYTHON 3:

     pip install pip-tools==7.4.1
     

2. Compile the main dependencies:

   • FOR PYTHON 3:

     pip-compile requirements.in --output-file=requirements.txt
     

3. Compile the dev dependencies:

   • FOR PYTHON 3:

     pip-compile dev-requirements.in --output-file=dev-requirements.txt
     

4. Make sure your python environment has the correct libraries installed:

   • FOR PYTHON 3:

     pip-sync requirements.txt dev-requirements.txt
