poetry-bin

This project builds Poetry Python dependency management tool into a binary executable using PyOxidizer.

The aim is to have a Poetry instance fully independent of the local Python environment. More details are available in the dedicated blog post.

Note: due to patches implemented over Poetry components, this build might introduce unwanted bugs over Poetry project, use at your own risk.

Due to its nature, poetry-bin has some key differences compared to the "vanilla version", specifically:

• self commands are dropped
• Plugins are not supported (yet?). The only included plugin is the export one
• the selection of the Python interpreter to use is slightly different, as it won't use sys.executable to make decisions
