Empty requirements.txt file #221

Closed ashu-tosh-kumar closed 3 years ago

ashu-tosh-kumar commented 3 years ago

I am trying to create a requirements.txt file for my project. Using --debug as argument, I can see that pyreqs is detecting the packages but it's not writing anything to the requirements.txt file. It is creating an empty file.

ashu-tosh-kumar commented 3 years ago

Hi, I didn't solve the problem. I will try adding .py as you mentioned.

Pipreqs currently does not attempt to open any file that is not a .py file. I will close this issue but feel free to reopen it if adding the .py extension hasn't solved the issue

I am trying to run Pipreqs in the powershell and under the directory where my python program (.py files) resides. I got a blank requirement.txt file. Not sure what is the problem. Anyone can advise..

I had the same issue. And I found out that pipreqs works differently than pip freeze. In order to generate Not an empty file with pipreqs command you should have some imports in your project's files, because pipreqs's looking only for modules that are directly used in a project. For instance, you've installed a bunch of libraries and in one of your .py file you have 'from selenium import webdriver' it will generate txt with selenium only.
