idae 0.1.1

A PEP 772 implementation

Idae

A PEP 723 implementation

Usage

Run like normal Python except that the first argument must be a path to the script.

idae example.py

The dependency specification within the Python script must be like the following (example from PEP 723):

# /// pyproject
# [run]
# requires-python = ">=3.11"
# dependencies = [
#   "requests<3",
#   "rich",
# ]
# ///

import requests
from rich.pretty import pprint

resp = requests.get("https://peps.python.org/api/peps.json")
data = resp.json()
pprint([(k, v["title"]) for k, v in data.items()][:10])

Caveats

• Does not support Windows
• Does not respect requires-python
• Fails silently if the dependencies could not be found
• Crappy interface

How it works

1. Detect script file
2. Use venv to create a temporary virtual environment named idae-venv using the Python executable used to run idae
3. Find PEP 723 requirements
4. Install them into the venv
5. Run the script within the venv
6. Delete the venv

Installation

You can get this project via pip

$ pip install idae

But we highly recommend you install this project using pipx

$ pipx install idae

Why the name

The scientific name for Pythons is "Pythonidae". I just removed the "Python" and we get "idae".
