    To install it make sure that all prerequisites are met. Then use the pyenv-installer project like this to get the tool installed:

    After you’ve installed the build dependencies, you’re ready to install pyenv itself. I recommend using the pyenv-installer project:
  • Your own Stable Diffusion endpoint with AWS SageMaker

    For python, it's recommended to use pyenv, which allows you to install several versions of python at the same time with simple commands like this: pyenv install 3.9.13

    Please don't contribute worthless and irrelevant comments like this. As you doubtless well know, piping from curl into bash is something that a large subset of respected programmers think is reasonable, and another rather tedious subset do not. For example, the entire Rust community clearly has a consensus that it's reasonable: https://rustup.rs/ As does homebrew https://brew.sh/ and pyenv https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv-installer#install to name whatever came to my mind in 30s thought.

    Since the debate has such large numbers on both sides, your individual opinion on it is neither interesting nor germane.

  • Understanding Dependencies in Programming
    4 projects | dev.to | 14 Apr 2024
    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.

    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.

  • Python Packaging, One Year Later: A Look Back at 2023 in Python Packaging
    2 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 16 Jan 2024
    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.

    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?
    1 project | /r/learnpython | 10 Dec 2023
    I started using poetry. The problem is poetry will not install if there is dependency conflict and there is no way to ignore: github
