dependeless 0.1.1

A tool to show which pip packages are not depended on by any other package

Dependeless

A very small command line tool to list all the installed pip packages that are not dependencies of any other package.

Uses the Required-By field in the output of pip show to determine dependencies.

Installation

pip install dependeless

Usage

Easiest is to just run the command in your virtualenvironment:

dependeless

You can also run it with manually specified pip path:

dependeless --pip-path /path/to/pip

By the pip package and dependeless package itself are excluded from the output. You can change this or add more packages to exclude by using the --pardon option:

dependeless --pardon "pip, setuptools, your_package"

Performance

For large projects with many dependencies, the tool can be slow.
