#Pipenv

Matthew Dean Martin @mistersql · Oct 28, 2023 Thread

I'm phasing out my usage of #pipenv in all my #python side projects. Why?
- Pipenv can't package.
- Pipenv will soon always lock (which is slow, if I have to, then might as well us poetry)
- Poetry lock speed is bearable if you set minimum versions on *everything*
- Poetry supports pyproject.toml
- Poetry works fine for both libraries & apps (Pipenv aims to solve the problem of apps, not libraries)
- I figure out how to handle poetry private repos. I never figured that out for pipenv

and
- Poetry has features for preventing accidental install of a private package from public pypi just because they have the same name
A few years ago Poetry wasn't even cross platform & depending on the day the performance could be laughable (possibly because at the time I didn't realize the importance of pinning to a minimum to reduce the list of possibilities poetry must consider when looking for a compatible set of libs)

Okay, #pipenv is going to make me wait cumulative YEARS for the lockfile to be updated. Typing `--skip-lock` is always faster than waiting for the lockfile to be created. The lockfile should be created on the build server where the machine is infinitely more patient than me.

```$ pipenv install --dev --skip-lock
The flag --skip-lock has been deprecated for removal. ```

Okay one of my projects
Poetry - 44s
#Pipenv skip lock - 1m5s
Pipenv w/lock - 1m12s
Also in the area of popularity, poetry is 2x more popular.
https://pypistats.org/packages/poetry 800k
https://pypistats.org/packages/pipenv 400k
Who else is competitive in the poetry/pipenv space? #python

Humans can't understand the size of time spans, like millions or billions of years.

That is why we have created `poetry install` and `pipenv install -e .` so that you will feel the trillions of years vicerally.

IDEA: A #pip / #pipenv wrapper that reports back to you what it is going to install before it installs & reports the security rating/states/download counts, so you can decide if you really want to install it.

I think I just need to parse the output from
```python
--dry-run
```
and feed it into package info API calls.
