How to manage Python projects with Poetry
"While that quote is excellent, Python doesn't always adhere to it in principle. One area where Python has fallen short of the ideal is package management. For too long, managing Python projects involved a mishmash of tools and methodologies. However, a few clean and simple toolsets are emerging. One of them is Poetry. Also see: PyApp: An easy way to package Python apps as executables. Poetry brings to Python the kind of all-in-one project management capability that Go and Rust have long enjoyed."
"Poetry is deliberately unlike other Python dependency and project management tools, beginning with setup. Instead of using pip, Poetry uses a custom installer. The installer adds the Poetry application to your user's profile directory, so it can be used with any Python installation in your system-present or future. Although you can use pip install poetry to install Poetry in a specific Python i"
Poetry provides an integrated project and dependency management workflow for Python that enforces deterministic dependencies and specific package versions to ensure consistent builds across environments. Poetry simplifies creation, packaging, and publishing of projects and libraries to PyPI, and it handles virtual environments and dependency configuration in one tool. Poetry is intentionally different from other Python tools, using a custom installer that places the application in the user's profile so it can work with any Python installation. Alternative managers like uv offer faster installs and one-command execution, and Poetry's unique design introduces behaviors and tradeoffs to consider.
