Aws-cdk: Python CDK does not work with Pipenv without changing the package name

Note: for support questions, please first reference our documentation, then use Stackoverflow. This repository's issues are intended for feature requests and bug reports.

• I'm submitting a ...

  • [x] :question: support request => Please see note at the top of this template.

• What is the current behavior?
  Python 3.6, Pipenv 2018.11.26, CDK last version module Route 53

There seems to be an issue with the '.' in the package name.

Pipenv tries to find aws-cdk package and not aws-cdk.aws-route53

BTW, it works with pip which supports the '.'

Here is a Pipfile :

[[source]]
name = "pypi"
url = "https://pypi.org/simple"
verify_ssl = true

[dev-packages]

[packages]
aws-cdk.aws-route53 = "*"

[requires]
python_version = "3.6"

This one does not work but if I change the '.' in '-' it works (aws-cdk-aws-route53) .

• What is the expected behavior (or behavior of feature suggested)?
  "pipenv install" working, downloading the dependency.

• What is the motivation / use case for changing the behavior or adding this feature?
  Just playing with the Python CDK like I do with boto3

• Please tell us about your environment:

  • CDK CLI Version: None
  • Module Version: https://pypi.org/project/aws-cdk.aws-route53/ (last version)
  • OS: [OSX Mojave ]
  • Language: [Python ]

• Other information (e.g. detailed explanation, stacktraces, related issues, suggestions how to fix, links for us to have context, eg. associated pull-request, stackoverflow, gitter, etc)

It seems that this problem is already known:

Have you tried this with the latest version of pip? It looks like a fix was included in the 19.x releases.

I'm not sure that there is anything we can do on our side to address this.

[olivier-schmitt]

Yes, I've tried, it seems the issue is more on the Pipenv side which has not been updated since the version '2018.11.26'.
So no issue with pip (it works perfectly) but with pipenv.
I will create an issue on the pipenv side and reference this one, and we'll see.
Thanks.

This is really annoying me, too. A workaround would be to refactor cdk so it doesn't have dots in the package names. But, it seems like pipenv should handle it, since pip itself handles it. @olivier-schmitt, do you have a link to the pipenv issue? I'd like to follow.

You can install packages with dots just fine. You just need to put the name of the package in quotes. Example:

[[source]]
name = "pypi"
url = "https://pypi.org/simple"
verify_ssl = true

[dev-packages]
pytest = "*"

[packages]
hello = {editable = true,file = "file:///Users/***/learns/aws/cdk/hello-cdk"}
"aws-cdk.aws-route53" = "~=1.9"

[requires]
python_version = "3.7"

proof that it works:

    "_meta": {
        "hash": {
            "sha256": "8d4d4df7e2f85a619708d03544ff9e1a71a44cce8b65bf4eb456a22375945294"

        }]
    },
