Intent

Pipenv is a great python virtual environment management system. However it does not have the same popularity as others such as virtualenv. This causes some issuesj when working with a team. Pipenv does not have a native set of tools for making cross virtual environment management tools work nor should it.

This is a package that allows for a few convince commands in order to provide easier usage for mixed environment teams.

Tools included

Rebuilding Requirements

Rebuilding your requirements file is a pain if it is not your primary source of pip truth. This command runs pipenv lock and then packages only the non-development modules. It also sorts your requirements.txt file in alphabetical order for easier reading.

$ rebuild_requirements

Installing packages from Requirements

Installing from requirements.txt file is sometimes required. Pipenv does not provide a quick way to do this.

$ install_requirements

This will process your requirements.txt file and install all missing packages to the non-development package set on Pipenv. There is a suggested work around that also provides this functionality if you wish to execute it yourself without the necessity of installing this package.

$ pipenv install $(< requirements.txt)
