The key issue uv solved wasn't dependencies, it was environments.
I used to have hundreds of venv folders scattered around my machine. These days I use "uv run" or "uvx" or "uv run --with boto3 python" and uv handles all of the bookkeeping for me.
- bmitc 8mo agoPoetry had already solved that.
- saaspirant 8mo agoIt was very slow compared to uv
- simonw 8mo agoWhat's the poetry equivalent of this? uv run --with boto3 python
- bmitc 8mo agoThe claim was: > The key issue uv solved wasn't dependencies, it was environments. and not specific, niche features. I don't know of such a command in Poetry, but it could still be solved with dev groups or running Python in the virtual environment and installing the package.
- simonw 8mo agoThat command is an environment command. It runs Python in a temporary environment with boto3 installed - I use that trick all the time.
