    Identify unused dependencies and avoid a bloated virtual environment.

  • Ok, makes sense. I’ve created an issue for it here: https://github.com/fredrikaverpil/creosote/issues/130

  • pip-licenses

    Dump the license list of packages installed with pip.

  • Have you already considered pip-licenses?

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • pip-check-reqs

    find packages that should be in requirements for a project

  • Nice. I tried pip-extra-reqs (from pip-cache-tools) for this the other day, but this does a better job of reading from pyproject.toml.

  • BeatLog

    BeatLog parses NGINX reverse proxy and fail2ban logs into readable tables and reports. Use BeatLog to assess server traffic and tailor fail2ban filters.

  • I could give it a test with one of my projects, if scanning my local, development venv yields some changes.
