to-requirements.txt | Automatically Update requirements.txt

to-requirements.txt allows for the automatic management of dependencies in requirements.txt using pip as a package manager.

Benefits

Easy Setup: The installation process involves just two steps: installing the package using pip and setting it up using the provided script. That's it.
One-Command Setup: Set up a VirtualEnv-based project in a single command. It creates a virtual environment and installs to-requirements.txt automatically.
Customizable: Customize it as you prefer: use it only in Git repositories, allow or disallow automated requirements.txt file creation, enable or disable the package itself.
User-Friendly: After installation and setup, there are no additional conditions to use. Simply install, uninstall, or upgrade packages using pip as usual.
Always in Sync: With to-requirements.txt, the project's requirements.txt will always stay in sync with packages installed via pip.

To install the package, run the following command:

pip install to-requirements.txt

Then, initialize the package with:

requirements-txt install

To enable all available functionality, add the following lines to your .bashrc, .zshrc, or other .*rc file:

alias rt=". rt"
alias requirements-txt=". requirements-txt"

Or, use the CLI command:

rt alias

This enables sourced mode of the CLI execution and allows the CLI to activate or deactivate your virtual environment if required.

Note: The changes made to pip scripts will not affect the ordinary pip workflow after uninstalling to-requirements.txt.

To set up a VirtualEnv-based project, simply type:

requirements-txt init

Or, achieve the same effect more easily with aliases:

rt i
