</pre>

Generates targets for managing pip dependencies with pip-compile.

By default this rules generates a filegroup named "[name]" which can be included in the data
of some other compile_pip_requirements rule that references these requirements
(e.g. with `-r ../other/requirements.txt`).

It also generates two targets for running pip-compile:

- validate with `bazel test [name]_test`
- update with   `bazel run [name].update`

If you are using a version control system, the requirements.txt generated by this rule should
be checked into it to ensure that all developers/users have the same dependency versions.

    requirements = ":requirements.txt",
)

load("@pip_deps//:requirements.bzl", "install_deps")

| <a id="pip_install-name"></a>name |  A unique name for the created external repository (default 'pip').   |  <code>"pip"</code> |
| <a id="pip_install-kwargs"></a>kwargs |  Additional arguments to the [<code>pip_repository</code>](./pip_repository.md) repository rule.   |  none |


<a id="pip_parse"></a>

## pip_parse

<pre>
pip_parse(<a href="#pip_parse-requirements">requirements</a>, <a href="#pip_parse-requirements_lock">requirements_lock</a>, <a href="#pip_parse-name">name</a>, <a href="#pip_parse-kwargs">kwargs</a>)
</pre>

Accepts a locked/compiled requirements file and installs the dependencies listed within.

Those dependencies become available in a generated `requirements.bzl` file.
You can instead check this `requirements.bzl` file into your repo, see the "vendoring" section below.

This macro wraps the [`pip_repository`](./pip_repository.md) rule that invokes `pip`.
In your WORKSPACE file:

```python
load("@rules_python//python:pip.bzl", "pip_parse")

pip_parse(
    name = "pip_deps",
    requirements_lock = ":requirements.txt",
)

load("@pip_deps//:requirements.bzl", "install_deps")

install_deps()
```

You can then reference installed dependencies from a `BUILD` file with:

```python
load("@pip_deps//:requirements.bzl", "requirement")

py_library(
    name = "bar",
    ...
    deps = [
       "//my/other:dep",
       requirement("requests"),
       requirement("numpy"),
    ],
)
```

In addition to the `requirement` macro, which is used to access the generated `py_library`
target generated from a package's wheel, The generated `requirements.bzl` file contains
functionality for exposing [entry points][whl_ep] as `py_binary` targets as well.

[whl_ep]: https://packaging.python.org/specifications/entry-points/

```python
load("@pip_deps//:requirements.bzl", "entry_point")

alias(
    name = "pip-compile",
    actual = entry_point(
        pkg = "pip-tools",
        script = "pip-compile",
    ),
)
```

Note that for packages whose name and script are the same, only the name of the package
is needed when calling the `entry_point` macro.

```python
load("@pip_deps//:requirements.bzl", "entry_point")

alias(
    name = "flake8",
    actual = entry_point("flake8"),
)
```

## Vendoring the requirements.bzl file

In some cases you may not want to generate the requirements.bzl file as a repository rule
while Bazel is fetching dependencies. For example, if you produce a reusable Bazel module
such as a ruleset, you may want to include the requirements.bzl file rather than make your users
install the WORKSPACE setup to generate it.
See https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_python/issues/608

This is the same workflow as Gazelle, which creates `go_repository` rules with
[`update-repos`](https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel-gazelle#update-repos)

To do this, use the "write to source file" pattern documented in
https://blog.aspect.dev/bazel-can-write-to-the-source-folder
to put a copy of the generated requirements.bzl into your project.
Then load the requirements.bzl file directly rather than from the generated repository.
See the example in rules_python/examples/pip_parse_vendored.


**PARAMETERS**


| Name  | Description | Default Value |
| :------------- | :------------- | :------------- |
| <a id="pip_parse-requirements"></a>requirements |  Deprecated. See requirements_lock.   |  <code>None</code> |
| <a id="pip_parse-requirements_lock"></a>requirements_lock |  A fully resolved 'requirements.txt' pip requirement file containing the transitive set of your dependencies. If this file is passed instead of 'requirements' no resolve will take place and pip_repository will create individual repositories for each of your dependencies so that wheels are fetched/built only for the targets specified by 'build/run/test'. Note that if your lockfile is platform-dependent, you can use the <code>requirements_[platform]</code> attributes.   |  <code>None</code> |
| <a id="pip_parse-name"></a>name |  The name of the generated repository. The generated repositories containing each requirement will be of the form <code>&lt;name&gt;_&lt;requirement-name&gt;</code>.   |  <code>"pip_parsed_deps"</code> |
| <a id="pip_parse-kwargs"></a>kwargs |  Additional arguments to the [<code>pip_repository</code>](./pip_repository.md) repository rule.   |  none |
