huak VS zpy

Curious question, since both are written in Rust (thus performance-wise both will be great) what other differences are there between rye and huak ?

and https://github.com/cnpryer/huak if it's stable will replace it for me :)

Hi! I'm working on https://github.com/cnpryer/huak. I really want to recreate what I enjoy about using Cargo but for the Python ecosystem.

Here’s an issue to track major feature status https://github.com/cnpryer/huak/issues/602

Thanks for the feedback! https://github.com/cnpryer/huak/pull/590

Yea I love that you found poetry and have enjoyed it so much. If you’re into package managers I’d really appreciate some of your feedback on Huak :). I just started it, but experiences like yours have given me the urge to build one.

I want you to tear me apart though so feel free to pick apart the architecture.md docs https://github.com/cnpryer/huak/blob/master/architecture.md

If your interactive shell is zsh, you could give my project zpy a try, particularly the function pipz that it provides, which is a lightweight pipx clone with great completions and good speed.

I can immediately see some things rye is doing differently, like keeping the venvs themselves free of pip and pip-tools. I wonder in your explorations if you've tried rtx for managing python installations, or my own zpy wrapper of pip-tools+venv (which can also replace pipx).

My patterns in this regard aren't exactly mainstream, as I use flit+pip-tools+zpy (the latter being my own Zsh interface for Python dependency and environment operations), but FWIW here's how I go about nested requirements.

For managing venvs and dependencies and apps, I use my own frontend to pip-tools + venv, zpy. And for running tasks which require an activated venv, I use nox.

If anyone's interested in a pipx clone with excellent tab completion, I would appreciate any feedback on pipz, a function of my zsh plugin for python environment and dependency management: zpy

https://github.com/andydecleyre/zpy

For concise and practical interactive usage of those tools, with excellent tab completion, I made the Zsh frontend zpy.

I also use my own Zsh wrapper functions with it, so for example: https://i.imgur.com/YX8bWy8.png

I'm a big fan of (and small contributor to) pip-tools, but both poetry and pipenv offer management of more stuff, which understandably appeals to folks seeking a simple comprehensible workflow.

Pip-tools is also a bit lower level, offering flexibility and compatibility which I relish, but also requiring more attention from the user to set things up as they wish.

If you or anyone else enjoying pip-tools is a Zsh user and interested in trying out my higher level functions to ease interactive use of pip-tools, venvs, and also isolated app installs (like pipx), I would love some feedback on zpy: https://github.com/AndydeCleyre/zpy

I'm very happy to answer any questions about it right here or as GitHub issues.

This is FAR from some big mainstream thing, but I use (and am happy to answer any questions about) my own Zsh frontend to venv+pip-tools+pip, zpy.

FWIW, with my project zpy, extras groups take the form of EXTRANAME-requirements.in, and the function pypc (or as a subcommand zpy pypc) will read those and inject them into your pyproject.toml in the generic, PEP-supported sections.
