Support editable/develop installs of local build script dependencies #146

New feature or request
Currently, local dependencies (such as
somepkg @ ../somepkg
) can only be installed immediately. This makes development of a Kraken extension difficult in some situations. After modifying files in the source package, a reinstall needs to be triggered withkrakenw --upgrade --incremental
.It would be great if we could install the local dependency in editable mode instead (e.g. Pip's
-e
option).As a side note: We should add more emphasis on the warning after install (e.g. with
--upgrade --incremental
) if a Kraken lock file is present but it is outdated. Otherwise, the nextkrakenw
run will install again whatever is in the lock file, and not what thebuildscript()
definition specifies.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
