Does pip handle extras_requires from setuptools/distribute based sources?

问题

I have package "A" with a setup.py and an extras_requires line like:

extras_require = {
    'ssh':  ['paramiko'],
},

And a package "B" that depends on util:

install_requires = ['A[ssh]']

If I run python setup.py install on package B, which uses setuptools.command.easy_install under the hood, the extras_requires is correctly resolved, and paramiko is installed.

However, if I run pip /path/to/B or pip hxxp://.../b-version.tar.gz, package A is installed, but paramiko is not.

Because pip "installs from source", I'm not quite sure why this isn't working. It should be invoking the setup.py of B, then resolving & installing dependencies of both B and A.

Is this possible with pip?

回答1:

This is suppported since pip 1.1, which was released in February 2012 (one year after this question was asked).

We use setup.py and pip to manage development dependencies for our packages, though you need a newer version of pip (we're using 1.4.1 currently).

#!/usr/bin/env python
from setuptools import setup
from myproject import __version__ 

required = [
    'gevent',
    'flask',
    ...
]

extras = {
    'develop': [
        'Fabric',
        'nose',
    ]
}

setup(
    name="my-project",
    version=__version__,
    description="My awsome project.",
    packages=[
        "my_project"
    ],
    include_package_data=True,
    zip_safe=False,
    scripts=[
        'runmyproject',
    ],
    install_requires=required,
    extras_require=extras,
)

To install the package:

$ pip install -e . # only installs "required"

To develop:

$ pip install -e .[develop] # installs develop dependencies

The answer from @aaronfay is completely correct but it may be nice to point out that if you're using zsh that the install command pip install -e .[dev] needs to be replaced by pip install -e ".[dev]".
