Contributing to Poetry First off, thanks for taking the time to contribute! The following is a set of guidelines for contributing to Poetry on GitHub. These are mostly guidelines, not rules. Use your best judgement, and feel free to propose changes to this document in a pull request. How to contribute Reporting bugs This section guides you through submitting a bug report for Poetry. Following these guidelines helps maintainers and the community understands your report, reproduces the behavior, and finds related reports.

Introduction Poetry is a tool for dependency management and packaging in Python. It allows you to declare the libraries your project depends on and it will manage (install/update) them for you. Poetry offers a lockfile to ensure repeatable installs, and can build your project for distribution. System requirements Poetry requires Python 3.8+. It is multi-platform and the goal is to make it work equally well on Linux, macOS and Windows.

Dependency specification Dependencies for a project can be specified in various forms, which depend on the type of the dependency and on the optional constraints that might be needed for it to be installed. project.dependencies and tool.poetry.dependencies Prior Poetry 2.0, dependencies had to be declared in the tool.poetry.dependencies section of the pyproject.toml file. [tool.poetry.dependencies] requests = "^2.13.0" With Poetry 2.0, you should consider using the project.dependencies section instead. [project] # ... dependencies = [ "requests (>=2.23.0,<3.0.0)" ] While dependencies in tool.poetry.dependencies are specified using toml tables, dependencies in project.dependencies are specified as strings according to PEP 508.

Configuration Poetry can be configured via the config command (see more about its usage here) or directly in the config.toml file that will be automatically created when you first run that command. This file can typically be found in one of the following directories: macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/pypoetry Windows: %APPDATA%\pypoetry For Unix, we follow the XDG spec and support $XDG_CONFIG_HOME. That means, by default ~/.config/pypoetry. Local configuration Poetry also provides the ability to have settings that are specific to a project by passing the --local option to the config command.

Repositories Poetry supports the use of PyPI and private repositories for discovery of packages as well as for publishing your projects. By default, Poetry is configured to use the PyPI repository, for package installation and publishing. So, when you add dependencies to your project, Poetry will assume they are available on PyPI. This represents most cases and will likely be enough for most users. Private Repository Example Installing from private package sources By default, Poetry discovers and installs packages from PyPI. But, you want to install a dependency to your project for a simple API repository? Let’s do it.
