# PipFlow

## Background

Pipflow is built for developers who deploy their Python software using Docker and Cloud Native technologies. When 

building docker images our constraints are:

- The more slim the image, the better.

- The less image layers, the better.

- Don't reinvent the wheel by installing a new package manager in your Dockerfile. These tools tend to use 

  lock files, which are fine in general, but in Docker they are redundant because we already have a way to 

  pin dependencies: Docker image layers.

 

This leave us with one option: Continue to use plain old `pip`, but create some new workflows that improve the 

developer experience.

For example, Pipflow replaces this workflow:

    $ pip3 install 

    $ pip3 freeze | grep  >> requirements.txt

    $ docker build ... # (A redudant install)

with this:

    $ pipflow add 

## Setup

Install `pipflow` on your *HOST OS only* (macOS, Windows, Linux etc). Do not add Pipflow to your `requirements.txt`.

    pip3 install pipflow

## Usage

Add a new package

    pipflow add 

Remove a package

    pipflow remove 

    

Upgrade a package version

    pipflow upgrade 

    

Upgrade all packages

    

    pipflow upgrade-all

    

Vew all packages eligible for upgrade

    pipflow view-all
