AutoDPD (Automatic Dependency Detector)

AutoDPD is a Python tool that automatically analyzes Python projects to detect dependencies, determine required Python versions, and generate environment package list.

Features

🔍 Automatic Dependency Detection from:

• Python files (*.py)
• Jupyter notebooks (*.ipynb)
• Local imports
• Common package aliases (e.g., 'cv2' → 'opencv-python')

🔧 Environment Generation:

• environment.yml for conda
• requirements.txt for pip

Installation

pip install pyyaml requests packaging
pip install autodpd

Tutorials

Basic Usage

cd /path/to/your/project
autodpd # Generate Dependencies
conda env create -f environment.yml # default name: the name of current dir e.g. "project"; you can personalize your own conda env name after "name:" 
conda activate PROJECT_NAME # Enter the name in environment.yml
pip install -r requirements.txt # Ensure you installed all dependencies

environment.yml:

name: project_name
channels:
  - defaults
  - conda-forge
dependencies:
  - python>=3.6
  - pip
  - pip:
    - matplotlib
    - numpy
    - pandas
    - scikit-learn
    - tensorflow

requirements.txt:

# Python >= 3.6
matplotlib
numpy
pandas
scikit-learn
tensorflow

Check the current version of autodpd:

autodpd -v

environment.yml:

name: project_name
channels:
  - defaults
  - conda-forge
dependencies:
  - python>=3.6
  - pip
  - pip:
    - matplotlib==3.4.3
    - numpy==1.21.2
    - pandas==1.3.3
    - scikit-learn==0.24.2
    - tensorflow==2.6.0

requirements.txt:

# Python >= 3.6
matplotlib==3.4.3
numpy==1.21.2
pandas==1.3.3
scikit-learn==0.24.2
tensorflow==2.6.0

Analyze specific directory:

autodpd -d /path/to/your/project

Include recommended version of dependencies:

autodpd --versions

Generate with a quiet output:

autodpd -q

Skip saving output files:

autodpd --no-save 

(Optional) Python API

from autodpd import autodpd

# Initialize detector
detector = autodpd()

# Generate environment specifications
specs = detector.generate_environment(
    directory='path/to/project',
    include_versions=True
)

# Access results
python_version = specs['recommended_python_version']
dependencies = specs['dependencies']
