Dependency management

Python can manage dependencies through the use of the “requirements.txt” file (for more info, see PIP documentation).

The requirements.txt will list the Python dependencies:

MyApp
Framework==0.9.4
Library>=0.2

which can then be installed in other users by running

pip install -r requirements.txt

A working environment can “freeze” the dependencies by running

pip freeze > requirements.txt

which needs to be edited down (maybe).
