dep-sync
dep-sync is a helper Python library designed to synchronize Python environments with their declared dependencies. Currently at version 0.1.0, it provides a foundational tool for ensuring consistency across development and deployment environments. Given its early version, a rapid release cadence for bug fixes and new features is likely.
Common errors
-
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'dep_sync'
cause The `dep-sync` package was not installed or installed in a different Python environment than the one being used.fixEnsure the package is installed in the active Python environment: `pip install dep-sync`. -
AttributeError: module 'dep_sync' has no attribute 'sync_dependencies'
cause The specific function `sync_dependencies` might not exist or the import path is incorrect, or the API has changed in a non-documented way.fixVerify the correct import paths and function names by checking the latest `dep-sync` documentation on GitHub, or inspect the package's installed files (e.g., `pip show dep-sync`, then examine the `Location` and package contents).
Warnings
- gotcha As a 0.1.0 release, the API is subject to change. Direct imports or programmatic usage might be unstable across minor versions. It's recommended to pin the version to avoid unexpected breaking changes.
- gotcha The documentation for version 0.1.0 is minimal. Specific API details, advanced usage patterns, and configuration options might not be explicitly covered, requiring users to infer usage from source or experimentation.
Install
-
pip install dep-sync
Imports
- sync_dependencies
from dep_sync import sync_dependencies
Quickstart
from dep_sync import sync_dependencies
# Assuming pyproject.toml and requirements.txt are in the current directory
# This function will analyze your project and synchronize dependencies.
# The exact parameters and their usage would typically be detailed in comprehensive documentation.
# For a basic synchronization, often no arguments are needed if conventions are followed.
# For example, it might implicitly look for pyproject.toml or requirements.txt.
# Placeholder for typical command-line equivalent execution:
# You would typically run 'dep-sync' from your terminal in the project root.
# The Python API might expose a similar underlying function for programmatic use.
