![]() In some cases, it's possible for the marker expressions on conflicting dependency specification to be disjoint but *incomplete*. That is, if one unions the disjoint markers, the result is not the complete set of marker environments possible. There may be some "gap" of marker environments not covered by the markers. This is a problem in practice because, before this commit, we only created forks in the resolver for specific marker expressions. So if a dependency happened to fall in a "gap," our resolver would never see it. This commit fixes this by adding a new split covering the negation of the union of all marker expressions in a set of forks for a specific package. Originally, I had planned on only creating this split when it was known that the gap actually existed. That is, when the negation of the marker expressions did *not* correspond to the empty set. After a lot of thought, unfortunately, this (I believe) effectively boils down to 3SAT, which is NP-complete. Instead, what we do here is *always* create an extra split unless we can definitively tell that it is empty. We look for a few cases, but otherwise throw our hands up and potentially do wasted work. This also updates the lock scenario tests to reflect the actual bug fix here. |

Dependency specifiers (PEP 508) in Rust
A library for python dependency specifiers, better known as PEP 508.
Usage
In Rust
use std::str::FromStr;
use pep508_rs::Requirement;
let marker = r#"requests [security,tests] >= 2.8.1, == 2.8.* ; python_version > "3.8""#;
let dependency_specification = Requirement::from_str(marker).unwrap();
assert_eq!(dependency_specification.name, "requests");
assert_eq!(dependency_specification.extras, Some(vec!["security".to_string(), "tests".to_string()]));
In Python
from pep508_rs import Requirement
requests = Requirement(
'requests [security,tests] >= 2.8.1, == 2.8.* ; python_version > "3.8"'
)
assert requests.name == "requests"
assert requests.extras == ["security", "tests"]
assert [str(i) for i in requests.version_or_url] == [">= 2.8.1", "== 2.8.*"]
Python bindings are built with maturin, but you can also use the normal pip install .
Version
and VersionSpecifier
from pep440_rs are reexported to avoid type mismatches.
Markers
Markers allow you to install dependencies only in specific environments (python version, operating system, architecture, etc.) or when a specific feature is activated. E.g. you can say importlib-metadata ; python_version < "3.8"
or itsdangerous (>=1.1.0) ; extra == 'security'
. Unfortunately, the marker grammar has some oversights (e.g. https://github.com/pypa/packaging.python.org/pull/1181) and the design of comparisons (PEP 440 comparisons with lexicographic fallback) leads to confusing outcomes. This implementation tries to carefully validate everything and emit warnings whenever bogus comparisons with unintended semantics are made.
In python, warnings are by default sent to the normal python logging infrastructure:
from pep508_rs import Requirement, MarkerEnvironment
env = MarkerEnvironment.current()
assert not Requirement("numpy; extra == 'science'").evaluate_markers(env, [])
assert Requirement("numpy; extra == 'science'").evaluate_markers(env, ["science"])
assert not Requirement(
"numpy; extra == 'science' and extra == 'arrays'"
).evaluate_markers(env, ["science"])
assert Requirement(
"numpy; extra == 'science' or extra == 'arrays'"
).evaluate_markers(env, ["science"])
from pep508_rs import Requirement, MarkerEnvironment
env = MarkerEnvironment.current()
Requirement("numpy; python_version >= '3.9.'").evaluate_markers(env, [])
# This will log:
# "Expected PEP 440 version to compare with python_version, found '3.9.', "
# "evaluating to false: Version `3.9.` doesn't match PEP 440 rules"
