Yeah it’s definitely a vast improvement on previous attempts (Poetry et al).
I dunno if it can be called solved until it’s officially sanctioned and installed by default though, and I don’t see that happening for a very long time.
It actually works. I tried poetry once and it failed to resolve some simple dependency specification.
Ok you can say it was a fluke bug but it didn’t inspire confidence.
uv
is also freakishly fast. My venv setup times went from 57 seconds to 7 seconds. I seriously doubt Poetry can do that because it’s written in Python.
I abandoned poetry after it was unable to install a specific version of pytorch I was using.
In pip I would do something like pip3 install torch torchvision torchaudio --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu118
, but IIRC poetry didn’t support the --index-url
option.
