poetry add --path=../my_package my_package includes extras when it shouldn't

• I am on the latest Poetry version.

• I have searched the issues of this repo and believe that this is not a duplicate.

• If an exception occurs when executing a command, I executed it again in debug mode (-vvv option).

• OS version and name: RHEL 7.5

• Poetry version: 0.12.5

Issue

I have the following layout on disk

├─my_project
│ ├─ pyproject.toml
| ├─ ...
| └─ .git/
|
└─git_clone_of_some_library
  ├─ setup.py
  ├─ ...
  └─ .git/

git_clone_of_some_library/setup.py contains:

from setuptools import find_packages, setup
...
setup(
...
    install_requires=[
...
    ],
    extras_require=dict(
        dev=[
            'a_dev_only_library_not_available_in_my_current_context',
...
        ]
    ),
...
)

So, I’m trying to set up my environment with:

my_project $ poetry install
my_project $ poetry add --path=../git_clone_of_some_library git_clone_of_some_library

But I get:

[SolverProblemError]
Because git_clone_of_some_library (x.y.z) depends on a_dev_only_library_not_available_in_my_current_context (*) which doesn't match any versions, git_clone_of_some_library  is forbidden.
So, because my_project depends on git_clone_of_some_library  (...), version solving failed.

What I don’t understand is why a package in the [dev] extra is being installed? That seems like a bug, but it also raises the question: if I want to specify one or more extras when adding a library as a dependency, how do I do that?

This should be fixed in the latest 0.12.7 release.

@cjw296, yes, you can. Repeat --develop as many times as you need. –develop=a --develop=b

@narimanizett https://github.com/narimanizett - can you specify multiple packages to --develop?
