Hi, it sounds like you are using Poetry to manage your Python dependencies and virtual environments. Poetry creates a .venv
folder inside your project directory, which contains a pyvenv.cfg
file that stores some configuration options for the virtual environment, such as the Python version and the location of the executable¹.
If you want to add cryptography to your virtual environment, you can use the poetry add
command, which will automatically update your pyproject.toml
and poetry.lock
files². For example, you can run:
poetry add cryptography
This will install the latest version of cryptography and its dependencies in your virtual environment.
Alternatively, you can specify the version of cryptography you want to install by using the ^
or ~
operators³. For example, you can run:
poetry add cryptography^3.4.7
This will install the latest compatible version of cryptography that is greater than or equal to 3.4.7 and less than 4.0.0.
For testing purposes, you can also use the --system-site-packages
option when creating a new virtual environment with Poetry, which will allow you to access the packages that are installed globally on your system⁴. For example, you can run:
poetry config virtualenvs.create true
poetry config virtualenvs.in-project true
poetry config virtualenvs.options.system-site-packages true
poetry install
This will create a new virtual environment in your project directory with the include-system-site-packages = true
option in the pyvenv.cfg
file, and install your project dependencies in it. However, this is not recommended for production use, as it may cause conflicts or inconsistencies with your project dependencies.
I hope this helps you with your question. If you have any further questions, please feel free to ask.

Stale issue
Is there a reason why cryptography
cannot be added as a dependency for the project? To me it seems like there are no big drawbacks. One could at least add it as optional dependency.
Hi, I'm getting the following error when importing a PDF:
Exception: cryptography>=3.1 is required for AES algorithm
I've tried installing multiple versions from 3.0, 3.1, 3.2 and keep getting the same issue. Any advice?
