Understanding Dependencies in Programming
You can manage dependencies in Python with the package manager pip, which comes pre-installed with Python. Pip allows you to install and uninstall Python packages, and it uses a requirements.txt file to keep track of which packages your project depends on. However, pip does not have robust dependency resolution features or isolate dependencies for different projects; this is where tools like pipenv and poetry come in. These tools create a virtual environment for each project, separating the project's dependencies from the system-wide Python environment and other projects.

Uv: Python Packaging in Rust

Boring Python: dependency management (2022)
Based on this comment 5 days ago[0], it's working? I'm not sure didn't dig in too far but based on that comment it seems fair to say that it's not fully Poetry's fault because torch removed hashes (which poetry needs to be effective) for a while only recently adding it back in.
Not sure where I would stand if I fully investigated it tho.

Fun with Avatars: Crafting the core engine | Part. 1
We will be running this project in Python 3.10 on Mac/Linux, and we will use Poetry to manage our dependencies. Later, we will bundle our app into a container using docker for deployment.

Python Packaging, One Year Later: A Look Back at 2023 in Python Packaging
Here are the two main packaging issues I run into, specifically when using Poetry:
1) Lack of support for building extension modules (as mentioned by the article). There is a workaround using an undocumented feature [0], which I've tried, but ultimately decided it was not the right approach. I still use Poetry, but build the extension as a separate step in CI, rather than kludging it into Poetry.
2) Lack of support for offline installs [1], e.g. being able to download the dependencies, copy them to another machine, and perform the install from the downloaded dependencies (similar to using "pip --no-index --find-links=."). Again, you can work around this (by using "poetry export --with-credentials" and "pip download" for fetching the dependencies, then firing up pypiserver [2] to run a local PyPI server on the offline machine), but ideally this would all be a first class feature of Poetry, similar to how it is in pip.
I don't have the capacity to create Pull Requests for addressing these issues with Poetry, and I'm very grateful for the maintainers and those who do contribute. Instead, on the linked issues I share my notes on the matter, in the hope that it may at least help others and potentially get us closer to a solution.
Regardless, I'm sticking with Poetry for now. Though to be fair, the only other Python packaging tools I've used extensively are Pipenv and pip/setuptools. It's time consuming to thoroughly try out these other packaging tools, and is generally lower priority than developing features/fixing bugs, so it's helpful to read about the author's experience with these other tools, such as PDM and Hatch.

Introducing Flama for Robust Machine Learning APIs
We believe that poetry is currently the best tool for this purpose, besides of being the most popular one at the moment. This is why we will use poetry to manage the dependencies of our project throughout this series of posts. Poetry allows you to declare the libraries your project depends on, and it will manage (install/update) them for you. Poetry also allows you to package your project into a distributable format and publish it to a repository, such as PyPI. We strongly recommend you to learn more about this tool by reading the official documentation.

How do you resolve dependency conflicts?
I started using poetry. The problem is poetry will not install if there is dependency conflict and there is no way to ignore: github
pip-tools

Pyenv – lets you easily switch between multiple versions of Python
> Why is the "requirements.txt" file a stupid flat listing of all transitive dependencies with pinned versions? It makes it harder to change library versions even if there are no true conflicts.
My friend, here is what you seek: https://github.com/jazzband/pip-tools
requirements.txt is flat because it's really the output of `pip freeze`. It's supposed to completely and exactly rebuild the environment. Unfortunately it's far too flexible and people abuse it by putting in only direct dependencies etc.
If you're writing packages, you don't need a requirements.txt at all, by the way. Package dependencies (only direct dependencies) live in pyproject.toml with the rest of the package config. requirements.txt (and pip tools) are only for when you want to freeze the whole environment, like for a server deployment.

lockfiles for hatch projects
For all my projects I found myself regenerating manual lock files using complex shell commands with pip-compile to get a reproducible environments across devices using a custom pre-install-command. I finally decided that instead of hacking together the same solution on all my projects I would build a plugin that handles this complexity for me.

Setting up Django in a Better Way in 5 Minutes and Understanding How It Works
Instead of venv, we are using pip-tools in this starter kit. pip-tools take things further in dependency management. Check out what pip-tools does in their official GitHub repo. In short, it helps your project find the best match for the dependent packages. For example, you might need two packages A and B in your project that requires same package C under the hood. But A requires any version of C from 1.0.1 to 1.0.10 and B requires any version of C from 1.0.7 to 1.0.15. Pip tools will automatically compile the version of 'C' that suits for both of your packages.

just-pip-tools: An example of managing python dependencies as layered lock files with just and pip-tools
I've created a small project called just-pip-tools that combines pip-tools and just to manage Python dependencies in a layered approach. This isn't a magic bullet; it's a set of files you can adapt to your needs.

Maintaining virtual environments
For small projects I recommend pip-tools. Just write packet list in requirements.in and pip-compile compile a requirements.txt with comments.
