See the
[Changelog](https://github.com/enpaul/tox-poetry-installer/blob/devel/CHANGELOG.md) for
release history.

*See also: [official Tox plugins](https://tox.readthedocs.io/en/latest/plugins.html) and
[the official Poetry documentation on using Tox](https://python-poetry.org/docs/faq/#is-tox-supported)*

## Feature Overview

- Manage package versions in exactly one place and with exactly one tool: Poetry.
- Ensure CI/CD and other automation tools are using the same package versions that you are
in your local development environment.
- Add only the packages or custom groups you need to a Tox test environment, instead of
everything in your lockfile.
- Directly integrate with Poetry, re-using your existing package indexes and credentials,
with no additional configuration.
- Wherever possible, built-in Tox config options are always respected and their behavior
kept consistent.
- Extremely configurable. Every feature can be disabled or enabled for any given Tox test
environment.
- Friendly to other Tox plugins and supports a wide range of environments.

## User Documentation

*This section is for users looking to integrate the plugin with their project or CI
system. For information on contributing to the plugin please see the
[Developer Docs](#developer-documentation)*

### Installing

The recommended way to install the plugin is to add it to a project using Poetry:

```bash
poetry add -G dev tox-poetry-installer[poetry]
```

> ℹ️ **Note:** Always install the plugin with the `[poetry]` extra, unless you are
> [managing the Poetry installation yourself](#externally-managed-poetry-installation).

Alternatively, it can be installed directly to a virtual environment using Pip, though
this is not recommended:

```bash
source somevenv/bin/activate
pip install tox-poetry-installer
```

Alternatively alternatively, it can be installed using the Tox
[`requires`](https://tox.readthedocs.io/en/latest/config.html#conf-requires) option by
adding the below to `tox.ini`, though this is also not recommended:

```ini
requires =
tox-poetry-installer[poetry] == 0.10.2
```

After installing, check that Tox recognizes the plugin by running
`poetry run tox --version`. The command should give output similar to below:

```
3.20.0 imported from .venv/lib64/python3.10/site-packages/tox/__init__.py
registered plugins:
tox-poetry-installer-0.10.2 at .venv/lib64/python3.10/site-packages/tox_poetry_installer/__init__.py
```

### Quick Start

Congratulations! 🎉 Just by installing the plugin your Tox config is already using locked
dependencies: when Tox builds and installs your project package to a test environment,
your project package's dependencies will be installed from the lockfile.

Now lets update an example `tox.ini` to install the other test environment dependencies
from the lockfile.

A `testenv` from the example `tox.ini` we're starting with is below:

```ini
[testenv]
description = Some very cool tests
deps =
black == 20.8b1
pylint >=2.4.4,<2.7.0
mypy <0.800
commands = ...
```

To update the config so that the testenv dependencies are installed from the lockfile, we
can replace the built-in
[`deps`](https://tox.readthedocs.io/en/latest/config.html#conf-deps) option with the
`locked_deps` option provided by the plugin, and then remove the inline version
specifiers. With these changes the three testenv dependencies (as well as all of their
dependencies) will be installed from the lockfile when the test environment is recreated:

```ini
[testenv]
description = Some very cool tests
locked_deps =
black
pylint
mypy
commands = ...
```

We can also add the `require_locked_deps` option to the test environment. This will both
block any other install tools (another plugin or Tox itself) from installing dependencies
to the Tox environment and also cause Tox to fail if the test environment also uses the
built-in [`deps`](https://tox.readthedocs.io/en/latest/config.html#conf-deps) option:

```ini
[testenv]
description = Some very cool tests
require_locked_deps = true
locked_deps =
black
pylint
mypy
commands = ...
```

> ℹ️ **Note:** Settings configured on the main `testenv` environment are inherited by
> child test environments (for example, `testenv:foo`). To override this, specify the
> setting in the child environment with a different value.

Alternatively, we can skip specifying all of our dependencies for a test environment in
the Tox config and install Poetry dependency groups directly:

```ini
[testenv]
description = Some very cool tests
require_locked_deps = true
poetry_dep_groups =
dev
commands = ...
```

> ℹ️ **Note:** The `install_dev_deps` configuration option is deprecated. See
> [Configuration Options](#configuration-options) for more information.

Finally, we can also install an unlocked dependency (a dependency which doesn't take its
version from the Poetry lockfile) into the test environment alongside the locked ones. We
need to remove the `require_locked_deps = true` option, otherwise the environment will
error, and then we can add the unlocked dependency using the built-in
[`deps`](https://tox.readthedocs.io/en/latest/config.html#conf-deps) option:

```ini
[testenv]
description = Some very cool tests
deps =
pytest >= 5.6.0,<6.0.0
locked_deps =
black
pylint
mypy
commands = ...
```

### Configuration Options

All options listed below are Tox environment options and can be applied to one or more
environment sections of the `tox.ini` file. They cannot be applied to the global Tox
configuration section.

| Option | Type | Default | Description |
| :--------------------- | :-----: | :-----: | :------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `locked_deps` | List | `[]` | Names of packages to install to the test environment from the Poetry lockfile. Transient dependencies (packages required by these dependencies) are automatically included. |
| `require_locked_deps` | Boolean | False | Whether the plugin should block attempts to install unlocked dependencies to the test environment. If enabled, then the [`tox_testenv_install_deps`](https://tox.readthedocs.io/en/latest/plugins.html#tox.hookspecs.tox_testenv_install_deps) plugin hook will be intercepted and an error will be raised if the test environment has the `deps` option configured. |
| `install_project_deps` | Boolean | True | Whether all of the Poetry primary dependencies for the project package should be installed to the test environment. |
| `require_poetry` | Boolean | False | Whether Tox should be forced to fail if the plugin cannot import Poetry locally. If `False` then the plugin will be skipped for the test environment if Poetry cannot be imported. If `True` then the plugin will force the environment to error and the Tox run to fail. |
| `poetry_dep_groups` | List | `[]` | Names of Poetry dependency groups specified in `pyproject.toml` to install to the test environment. |

### Runtime Options

All arguments listed below can be passed to the `tox` command to modify runtime behavior
of the plugin.

| Argument | Type | Default | Description |
| :--------------------------- | :-----: | :-----: | :----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `--parallel-install-threads` | Integer | `10` | Number of worker threads to use to install dependencies in parallel. Installing in parallel with more threads can greatly speed up the install process, but can cause race conditions during install. Pass this option with the value `0` to entirely disable parallel installation. |

### Errors

There are several errors that the plugin can encounter for a test environment when Tox is
run. If an error is encountered then the status of the test environment that caused the
error will be set to one of the "Status" values below to indicate what the error was.

| Status/Name | Cause |
| :------------------------------ | :------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `ExtraNotFoundError` | Indicates that the [`extras`](https://tox.readthedocs.io/en/latest/config.html#conf-extras) config option specified an extra that is not configured by Poetry in `pyproject.toml`. |
| `LockedDepVersionConflictError` | Indicates that an item in the `locked_deps` config option includes a [PEP-508 version specifier](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0508/#grammar) (ex: `pytest >=6.0, <6.1`). |
| `LockedDepNotFoundError` | Indicates that an item specified in the `locked_deps` config option does not match the name of a package in the Poetry lockfile. |
| `LockedDepsRequiredError` | Indicates that a test environment with the `require_locked_deps` config option set to `true` also specified unlocked dependencies using the [`deps`](https://tox.readthedocs.io/en/latest/config.html#conf-deps) config option. |
| `PoetryNotInstalledError` | Indicates that the `poetry` module could not be imported under the current runtime environment, and `require_poetry = true` was specified. |

> ℹ️ **Note:** One or more of these errors can be caused by the `pyproject.toml` being out
> of sync with the Poetry lockfile. If this is the case, than a warning will be logged
> when Tox is run.

### Other Notes

#### Unsupported Tox config options

Below are the built-in Tox config options that are not respected by this plugin. All of
these options are made obsolete by the Poetry lockfile: either they aren't needed or their
equivalent functionality is instead taken directly from the package details Poetry stores
in its lockfile.

> ℹ️ **Note:** The unsupported Tox config options will still apply to unlocked
> dependencies being installed with the default Tox installation backend.

- [`install_command`](https://tox.readthedocs.io/en/latest/config.html#conf-install_command)
- [`pip_pre`](https://tox.readthedocs.io/en/latest/config.html#conf-pip_pre)
- [`download`](https://tox.readthedocs.io/en/latest/config.html#conf-download)
- [`indexserver`](https://tox.readthedocs.io/en/latest/config.html#conf-indexserver)
- [`usedevelop`](https://tox.readthedocs.io/en/latest/config.html#conf-indexserver)

#### Updating locked dependencies in a testenv

When Poetry updates the version of a package in the lockfile (using either `poetry lock`
or `poetry update`) then the plugin will automatically use this new version to install the
package to a test environment; there is no need to manually update `tox.ini` after
updating the Poetry lockfile.

However, the plugin cannot determine when the lockfile is updated. If a Tox test
environment has already been created then it will need to be recreated (using Tox's
built-in
[`--recreate`](https://tox.readthedocs.io/en/latest/example/basic.html#forcing-re-creation-of-virtual-environments)
option) for the new version to be found and installed.

> ℹ️ **Note:** To force Tox to always recreate a test environment the
> [`recreate`](https://tox.readthedocs.io/en/latest/config.html#conf-recreate) config
> option can be set.

#### Using with an unmanaged Poetry installation

In CI/CD systems, automation environments, or other Python environments where the loaded
site packages are not managed by Poetry, it can be useful to manage the local installation
of Poetry externally. This also helps to avoid problems that can be caused by the
`--no-root`, `--without dev`, or `--sync` arguments to the `poetry install` command which,
in some situations, can cause Poetry to uninstall itself if Poetry is specified as a
dependency of one of the packages it is managing (like this plugin). To support these use
cases, this plugin specifies the `poetry` package as an optional dependency that can be
installed using a setuptools extra also named `poetry`.

> ⚠️ **Warning:** This plugin requires Poetry to function. If the plugin is installed
> without the `poetry` setuptools extra then Poetry must be installed independently for
> the plugin to function properly.

To skip installing the `poetry` package as a dependency of `tox-poetry-installer`, do not
specify the `poetry` extra when adding the plugin:

```bash
# Adding the package without the "[poetry]" extra specifier so that
# Poetry is not added as a transient dev-dependency:
poetry add -G dev tox-poetry-installer

# Adding the package with the "[poetry]" extra specifier, so the Poetry
# package will be added to the environment and tracked in the lockfile:
poetry add -G dev tox-poetry-installer[poetry]
```

Once the plugin is installed- either with or without the Poetry extra- you can validate
that the plugin will run correctly with the following command. This command checks that
all three required components (Tox, Poetry, and the plugin itself) are available in the
current Python environment:

```bash
python -c '\
import tox;\
import tox_poetry_installer;\
from poetry.poetry import Poetry;\
'
```

> ℹ️ **Note:** To force Tox to fail if Poetry is not installed, add the
> `require_poetry = true` option to the tox `[testenv]` configuration. See the
> [Config Options](#configuration-options) for more information.
