Dependencies
To manage and pin the (sub)dependencies of the relay server we use
pip-tools.
We create two requirements files, one for the production environment (:code:requirements.txt
)
and one for the additional development requirements (:code:dev-requirements.txt
).
For the dev environment, you have to install both. The production dependencies are derived
from the dependencies defined in :code:setup.py
.
To add new dependencies, add them to :code:setup.py
and then run :code:./compile-requirements
.
The development requirements are derived from :code:dev-requirements.in
. To add new development
dependencies, add them to this file and then rerun :code:./compile-requirements
.
To upgrade the dependencies in the created requirement files, check out the available options
for pip-tools and pass them to the compile script. To update all dependencies,
run :code:./compile-requirements.sh --upgrade
.
