### Python dependency management
|
||||
|
||||
We're using [`Poetry`](https://python-poetry.org/) for managing our Python
|
||||
dependencies and local virtual environments. When it comes to managing the
|
||||
Python dependencies, there are a couple of things to bear in mind.
|
||||
|
||||
For situations where you manually manipulate the `pyproject.toml` file, you
|
||||
should use the `make py-lock` command to sync the `poetry.lock` file. This will
|
||||
ensure that you don't inadvertently bring in other transitive dependency updates
|
||||
that have not been fully tested with the project yet.
|
||||
|
||||
If you're just trying to update a dependency to a newer (or the latest) version,
|
||||
you should let Poetry take care of that for you by running the following:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
poetry update <dependency> [<dependency>...]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can specify more than one dependency together. With this command, Poetry
|
||||
will do the following for you:
|
||||
|
||||
- Find the latest compatible version(s) of the specified dependency/dependencies
|
||||
- Install the new versions
|
||||
- Update and sync the `poetry.lock` file
|
||||
|
||||
In either situation, once you are finished and have verified the dependency
|
||||
changes are working, please be sure to commit both the `pyproject.toml` and
|
||||
`poetry.lock` files.
|
||||
|
||||
### Known installation issues
|
||||
|
||||
On M1 Macs, if you get a `fatal error: 'Python.h' file not found` message, try a different method of installing Python. Installation via `pyenv` is known to work.

A direct installation of PostgreSQL will not put the `createdb` command on your `$PATH`. It can be added there in your shell startup script, or a Homebrew-managed installation of PostgreSQL will take care of it.
