GitHub Action
WIPAC Dev Py Dependencies
GitHub Action Package for Automating Python-Package Dependency Management
This GitHub Action creates 1+ dependencies*.log-type file(s) for documenting dependency versions (ex: dependencies.log, dependencies-dev.log, dependencies-from-Dockerfile.log, etc.). These files are similar to requirements*.txt-type files, with the distinct difference that dependencies*.log-type files are not intended to be the source of truth, but rather, a reflection of the tested environment(s). If dependency-version pinning is wanted, it should be done by the user in the setup.cfg/pyproject.toml file.
The root directory's dependencies.log is overwritten/updated (by way of pip freeze + pipdeptree) along with dedicated dependencies-EXTRA.log files for each package "extra".
However, if there is a Dockerfile present at the root of the target repo, a similar process occurs but within a container built from the Dockerfile. This log file is named dependencies-from-Dockerfile.log. If there are other Dockerfiles present (ex: Dockerfile-foo), additional files are generated using the appropriate name (ex: dependencies-from-Dockerfile-foo.log).
