rex 2.0.14

Automatically add and delete modules to requirements.txt installing them using pip.

REX | Automatically Update requirements.txt

REX allows for the automatic management of dependencies in requirements.txt using pip as a package manager.

Benefits

• Easy Setup: The installation process involves just two steps: installing the package using pip and setting it up using the provided script. That's it.

• One-Command Setup: Set up a VirtualEnv-based project in a single command. It creates a virtual environment and installs to-requirements.txt automatically.

• Customizable: Customize it as you prefer: use it only in Git repositories, allow or disallow automated requirements.txt file creation, enable or disable the package itself.

• User-Friendly: After installation and setup, there are no additional conditions to use. Simply install, uninstall, or upgrade packages using pip as usual.

• Always in Sync: With to-requirements.txt, the project's requirements.txt will always stay in sync with packages installed via pip.

Installation

To install the package, run the following command:

pip install rex

To enable all available functionality, add the following lines to your .bashrc, .zshrc, or other .*rc file:

rex alias

or just paste this lines to your .bashrc, .zshrc, or other .*rc file:

alias rt=". rt"
alias requirements-txt=". requirements-txt"
alias rex=". rex"

This enables sourced mode of the CLI execution and allows the CLI to activate or deactivate your virtual environment if required.

Setup Project

To set up a VirtualEnv-based project, simply type:

rex init

Or, achieve the same effect more easily with aliases:

rex i

Note: The changes made to pip scripts will not affect the ordinary pip workflow after uninstalling to-requirements.txt.

Aliases

There are a few aliases available to use instead of rex command:

• requirements-txt - legacy command.
• rt - legacy command shortened.
