🔍 PyPI package information at a glance for Python dependencies – a VS Code extension

PyPI Assistant for VS Code

Handy hover tooltips + CodeLens for dependencies from PyPI – similar to what VS Code has built in for dependencies in package.json.

Gain access to: package name, description, author(s), license, and latest version at a glance, with links in case you need more details.

Supported formats:

• pip requirements files (requirements.txt, constraints.txt, and such)
• Poetry (pyproject.toml)

This extension depends on Microsoft's official Python extension for pip requirements language detection.

pypi-assistant's Issues

Poetry/pyproject.toml support?

I use Poetry for dependency management in several projects. Any chance this could be added?

Docs: https://python-poetry.org/docs/dependency-specification/

Tooltip not shown if the line contains a comment

At least I believe this is what's happening. For example, a tooltip is shown for every package in my requirements file except this one:

ipython==7.12.0  # Necessary for shell_plus access in review app and production environments

Thanks for this extension by the way; it's pretty handy!

Add intellisense for available package versions

For inspiration check out the hex.pm Extension for the Elixir package manager hex:

Doesn't work: It shows "no commands" under each line in requirements.txt

I just installed and activated the add-on in my Django project.

However, it doesn't work. It doesn't show a hover effect or the version numbers. The only thing it does is add a gray "no commands" line under each pip package.

Please see the attached screenshot.

Carve new release

Hey Twixes,

Could you carve a new release when you get a chance 😄 I'd love to see the new features out in the wild!

Thanks, Alex.

Remove "!!MISSING: command!!" output in front of include-lines

I have a requirements-test.txt file that includes another requirements file to pull in regular requirements which lead so this visual:
!!MISSING: command!!
-r requirements.txt # Pull in regular requirements

The extension reports "!!MISSING: command!!" above the "include-line" for pulling in regular requirements.

I would suggest not showing "!!MISSING: command!!" in this case. Just a blank line would be fine1

Support multiple requirement.txt files with different names

It would be great if your extension could support requirement.txt files with different names.

As an example I have two files in my repo to support a target embedded system and the host development system.

pip_requirements_target.txt
pip_requirements_dev.txt

I vscode setting to specify a list of valid requirement file names (regex/glob) would be nice :)

setting = [ "*requirements*.txt", "my_stupid_req_file_name.txt" ]

Maybe [ "*requirements*.txt" ] could be the default?
