pytest-pep723 0.1.0

Pytest plugin to verify PEP 723 inline script metadata covers all imports.

pytest-pep723

A pytest plugin that verifies PEP 723 inline script metadata covers all imports.

When you use uv run to dispatch scripts with inline metadata blocks like:

# /// script
# dependencies = [
#   "click",
#   "numpy",
# ]
# ///

...only the declared dependencies are available at runtime. If you add an import readcon but forget to add readcon to the deps block, the script fails at dispatch time. This plugin catches those gaps statically.

Installation

uv add --group dev pytest-pep723

Usage

# Scan all .py files under src/ for PEP 723 scripts
pytest --pep723-check --pep723-paths src/

# Ignore internal/conda-only packages
pytest --pep723-check --pep723-paths src/ --pep723-ignore mypkg --pep723-ignore ira_mod

Or configure in pyproject.toml:

[tool.pytest.ini_options]
pep723_paths =
    src/mypkg
pep723_ignore_imports =
    mypkg
    ira_mod
pep723_extra_mappings =
    gi=pygobject
    myspecial=my-special-pkg

Then just:

pytest --pep723-check

What it checks

For every .py file under the configured paths that contains a # /// script block:

1. Parses the declared dependencies from inline metadata
2. Extracts all import and from X import statements via AST
3. Skips stdlib and ignored imports
4. Maps import names to PyPI package names (handles PIL -> pillow, etc.)
5. Reports any import not covered by the declared deps

Features

• Handles multi-line and single-line dependency formats
• Supports all version operators (>=, ~=, [extras], etc.)
• Built-in mapping for 20+ packages where import name differs from pip name
• Configurable ignore list for internal packages and conda-only deps
• Custom import-to-package mappings via pep723_extra_mappings
• Registers a pep723 marker for selective test runs
