cookiecutter with poetry

i am trying to use Cookiecutter with django template by pydanny. Im using poetry to manage my python project and i don’t know how to do it.

Normally using pip and a virtual environment, all required packages are installed with:

pip install -r requirements/local.txt

But in poetry i can’t install dependencies from ‘.txt’ file. What do I have to do?

After going through #663 and #2135, and realizing this is the only issue that is open, I think poetry should atleast provide some direction for new users when they are converting from other formats.

Let’s just say requirements.txt is the most ubiquitous form of specifying requirements in the Python ecosystem.

Not providing any information on this would stray away a lot of new users.

It could be as simple as redirecting to https://dephell.readthedocs.io/cmd-deps-convert.html in the documentation. This needs to happen in the least.

Maintainers of poetry, please provide some insight on this.

Dephell is archived, unfortunately.

I’ll admit I got a little impatient, so I created this Python tool to do just this (called stanza…get it?). Parses requirements.txt files and automatically names and versions your project. It even allows for referenced requirements “e.g. -r ...”

I created it in a rush (but still tested it), so contributions welcome!
