Poetry: Is there a way to depend on local dependencies?

[radix]

If I prefer to include my vendored dependencies directly in my repository, is there a way for me to specify them as a dependency?

e.g., if I have vendor/foo, it seems it'd be nice if I could specify a dependency like

[tool.poetry.dependencies]
foo-package = {path = "vendor/foo"}

[sdispater]

If they are in a distribution format (tarball or wheel), yes you can (since version 0.8.0), like so:

[tool.poetry.dependencies]
foo-package = { file = "relative/path/to/distribution" }

[radix]

yeah, I saw file... but what if they're not?

When I'm working in Rust, I can point to any directory that has a Cargo.toml as another dependency with {path = "vendor/foo"} syntax. What about a similar thing for any directory with a pyproject.toml?

[sdispater]

I plan on adding this, yes. It will most likely land in the next feature release.

[sdispater]

This is now supported in release 0.9.0.

@sdispater I can't find a documentation for this feature, can you explain what is the syntax to do this?

[sdispater]

The documentation is here: https://poetry.eustace.io/docs/versions/#path-dependencies

[victornoel]

@sdispater ah perfect, thank you!

Can I somehow make this so poetry only uses the defined path if available, but if not, still checks normal repositories?

But what about already installed dependencies, like another project (library) installed
