Features

• Python Package Managers - Manages Python project dependencies and virtual environments to ensure reproducible installations across machines.
• Dependency Lockfiles - Uses a structured JSON lockfile to capture the exact state of dependency trees for reproducible builds.
• Dependency Installers - Adds dependencies to a project and installs them into an isolated virtual environment using versions or URLs.
• Dependency Tracking - Tracks installed packages in a configuration file and removes unneeded dependencies to maintain consistency.
• Dependency Freezing - Generates a lockfile that records exact versions of all installed dependencies for environment reproducibility.
• Package Installers - Leverages an underlying package installer to handle the downloading and installation of libraries from remote indexes.
• TOML Configuration Support - Utilizes the TOML format for defining high-level dependency constraints and project metadata.
• Python Environment Managers - Creates and activates isolated Python environments to prevent package version conflicts between projects.
• Deterministic Dependency Locking - Generates lockfiles that record exact dependency versions for identical execution in development and production.
• Version Constraints - Supports the specification of required package versions and platform constraints to ensure reproducible builds.
• Virtual Environment Managers - Provides isolated runtime environments with automatic shell detection and prompt integration.
• Environment Isolation - Creates isolated Python runtime environments to prevent dependency conflicts between different projects.
• Dependency Auditing - Scans installed packages for known security vulnerabilities and allows managing CVE exclusions.
• Dependency Exporters - Generates standard requirements files from a lockfile for compatibility with other package managers.
• Automated Dependency Updaters - Provides capabilities to re-resolve and upgrade specific packages or all dependencies to the latest allowed versions.
• Direct URL Installations - Allows fetching and installing packages directly from Git URLs, tags, or specific branches.
• Project Workflow Automation - Defines custom shell scripts and loads environment variables to streamline repetitive development tasks.
• Project Workflow Tools - Provides a CLI for loading environment variables, running custom project scripts, and auditing dependencies.
• Shell Command Execution - Enables the execution of arbitrary shell commands within the active project virtual environment.
• Shell Environment Launchers - Launches an interactive shell session that is pre-activated within the project virtual environment.
• Shell Script Execution Engines - Maps custom command names to shell scripts or executables for streamlined project task execution.
• Configuration-Defined Scripts - Allows the definition of custom command shortcuts for complex shell tasks within the project configuration.
• Dependency Graph Visualizers - Generates visual representations of the project dependency structure to detect conflicts and hierarchy.
• Environment Variable Configurations - Reads and injects key-value pairs from local files into the session environment.
• Dependency Visualizers - Generates a hierarchical map of installed packages and their dependencies in text or JSON format.
• Runtime Execution Wrappers - Spawns subprocesses with a modified environment to execute commands within the context of a specific virtual environment.
• Dependency Vulnerability Scanning - Scans installed Python packages for known security vulnerabilities to identify risky dependencies.
• Developer Tools - Development workflow for dependency management.
• Package Management - Official tool for dependency and environment management.
• Package Managers - Holistic workflow tool for Python dependency management.
• Virtual Environments - Manages dependencies and virtual environments for development workflows.
