📚 Examples

Simple Python Package

For a basic Python package with the following pyproject.toml:

[project]
name = "my-simple-package"
version = "1.0.0"
description = "A simple Python package"
dependencies = ["requests", "click"]
requires-python = ">=3.9"

[build-system]
requires = ["hatchling"]
build-backend = "hatchling.build"

Generated recipe:

context:
  name: my-simple-package
  version: 1.0.0
  python_min: "3.9"

package:
  name: ${{ name }}
  version: ${{ version }}

source:
  url: https://pypi.org/packages/source/m/my-simple-package/my_simple_package-1.0.0.tar.gz

build:
  script: python -m pip install . -vv --no-build-isolation
  number: 0

requirements:
  host: [python, pip]
  run: [python, requests, click]

test:
  python:
    imports: [my_simple_package]

Complex Package with Pixi

For a project using pixi with the following structure:

# pyproject.toml
[project]
name = "advanced-package"
dynamic = ["version"]
dependencies = ["numpy>=1.20", "pandas>=1.3"]
optional-dependencies.dev = ["pytest", "mypy", "ruff"]

[tool.hatch.version]
source = "vcs"

# pixi.toml
[project]
name = "advanced-package"
channels = ["conda-forge", "bioconda"]
platforms = ["linux-64", "osx-64", "osx-arm64"]

[dependencies]
python = ">=3.9"
numpy = ">=1.20"
pandas = ">=1.3"

[feature.dev.dependencies]
pytest = "*"
mypy = "*"
ruff = "*"

Generated recipe includes pixi-aware dependency management and development tool detection.

🚨 Troubleshooting

Common Issues

Issue: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'tomllib'
Solution: Install tomli for Python < 3.11: pip install tomli

Issue: Recipe generation fails with "No version found"
Solution: Ensure version is specified in [project] or configure dynamic versioning properly

Issue: Dependencies not mapping correctly
Solution: Check for conda-forge equivalents or specify custom mappings in [tool.conda.recipe.requirements]

Issue: Build script not detected
Solution: Specify custom build script in [tool.conda.recipe.build]

Debug Mode

Enable verbose logging to debug issues:

import logging
logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG)

from pyrattler_recipe_autogen import generate_recipe
# Your code here

Validation Errors

The tool includes built-in validation. Common validation warnings:

• Missing recommended sections: Add missing package, source, or requirements sections
• Package version missing: Ensure version is specified or dynamic versioning is configured
• Undefined context variables: Check template variables in your configuration
• Unused context variables: Remove unused variables from context section
